Frankfurt, 7. January 2008. From the start of the year cytric is available in three different functionality levels, always best meeting the needs of corporations and business travellers. cytric ONE, attractively priced, is designed for small corporations. cytric BUSINESS offers all the functionality a mid-size corporation needs, and more. cytric ENTERPRISE is the leading solution for large enterprises and global corporations, an unparalleled combination of rich functionality and superior performance, yet easy to manage and simple to deploy.

The new Air Policy Manager(tm) allows travel managers to flexibly configure travel policies to meet specific corporate demands. Exceptions, for example geographic, can be quickly, simply and transparently mapped. As a result cytric allows to dynamically apply fixed rules of a travel management system. Corporate travel policies can be individually and pragmatically adapted. The new Air Policy Manager(tm) offers a range of criteria to intelligently map the real world of business travel: travel managers can for example define different travel regulations to become effective from a certain flight or journey length.

The new cytric Support Agent Dashboard(tm) effectively makes cytric the core tool for travel agencies when implementing customer services. The tool grants the travel agent full access to all bookings for any individual traveller. Travel agency staff can change or cancel bookings as well as generate new ones, even for travellers already en route. In conjunction with cytric’s capacity to make reservations directly with vendors and the comprehensive acquisition offline booked reservations, cytric is now the definitive system in enabling travel agencies to deliver all business travel services to their customers.
