TRAVEL TECHNOLOGY PLATFORM
Travelnest is a travel technology company that helps holiday home owners advertise and distribute their properties across more than 30 global booking sites, including Booking.com, Airbnb, and Expedia. The platform is designed to help property owners increase bookings, improve visibility, and simplify listing management across multiple channels.
As Travelnest continued to grow and onboard more property owners and guests, customer support became a critical part of daily operations. However, the systems and processes in place were not built to scale with that growth, which started to create operational challenges for the support team.
Enquiries were coming from email, chat, phone, and messaging platforms, but were not managed in a single unified system.
A large number of low-value, repetitive enquiries were consuming agent time that could be spent on more complex customer issues.
Reporting across support channels was fragmented, making it difficult to track performance, SLAs, and team efficiency.
As support volume grew, scaling the support operation would have required a significant increase in team size and operational cost.
Travelnest decided to move to HubSpot Service Hub to centralise support, introduce automation and AI, improve reporting visibility, and build a support operation that could scale without increasing operational complexity.
Centralise all support channels into one system
Reduce manual work through automation and AI
Improve reporting, SLAs, and performance visibility
To support Travelnest’s growth and operational needs, Pixcell implemented HubSpot Service Hub Enterprise as the central support platform, migrating from Freshdesk, consolidating support channels, introducing automation and AI, and building reporting dashboards to give the team full visibility over performance and SLAs.
