By providing cutting-edge solutions such as a Booking Engine, ONDA HUB (Integrated Distribution System), and Property Management System, ONDA has solidified its position as a leader in the field.
The company’s recent partnership and joint venture with the Seed Group in the UAE is expected to expand its reach in the global market, particularly with large hotels in the Middle East.
