Beekeeper is an award-winning, GDPR-compliant, digital workplace app that digitizes hospitality workers by connecting operational systems and communication channels within one secure, intuitive platform. Keeping employees connected to the organization at large, as well as to each other, the company aims to digitize the 83 percent of employees worldwide who do not sit behind a desk.
Beekeeper brings together colleagues across locations and departments in real time via mobile or desktop devices by allowing top-down, bottom-up and peer-to-peer communication to give every employee a voice. Secure, automated and relevant information is readily distributed, searchable and measurable in one central hub for an efficient digitized workflow. The platform includes an intelligent dashboard to help companies gauge the effectiveness of their internal communications to streamline business processes.
The mobile and web app easily integrate with existing operational systems, so employees have all the tools they need at their fingertips. The custom-branded interface and advanced front and back end features create an interactive employee experience proven to strengthen engagement, retention, productivity and the bottom line.
The company is based in Zurich and San Francisco, and supports users in more than 130 countries. Clients include Marriott, InterContinental Hotels Group and Hilton.
New Hospitality Division
Beekeeper recently established a hospitality division. As one of the leading employee communications platforms in the hospitality industry, used by clients in 137 countries, Beekeeper helps hoteliers exchange information, share property updates, and communicate best practices within or across departments in 30 languages. Beekeeper lowers turnover and ensures that employees deliver a great guest experience.
Because hotel employees do not have traditional desk jobs, and emails are ineffective, many hotels rely on bulletin boards for internal communication at the property level. This does not resonate well with today’s employees, especially millennials. Beekeeper is successfully providing tools to reach every single hotel employee, via a web platform, mobile app and digital signage. Better yet, it’s now integrating with other popular applications and seamlessly bringing other tools and information to hotel employees' fingertips, such as scheduling shifts and managing tasks in real time.
Beekeeper’s white paper, “Hotel Crisis Planning and Communications,” explores how technology can optimize internal communications strategies. To download the document, visit www.beekeeper.io.
Custom Integrations
Running on the belief that an intuitive user interface (UI) and open communication builds cross-organizational trust, Beekeeper's award-winning digital workplace application is ideal for dispersing information to hospitality’s non-desk teams.
Beekeeper has recently expanded its platform to allow for information technology teams to integrate open application program interface (API) operations tools directly into its Beekeeper communications hub. Beekeeper’s integrations enable hotels to design and implement highly customized digital workplace platforms for non-desk employees. Hotel companies can use Beekeeper APIs to merge existing operational systems like payroll, scheduling, file sharing, task management and beyond, into the centralized Beekeeper hub their employees use to communicate throughout the workday. This creates a simplified, secure, easy-to-use tool where anything a worker needs to excel in their daily routine is stored in one convenient location.
