Matchbyte: Helping to Adopt Technology, at the “Speed of Light”

Across the board, every industry has been shifting gears to align its velocity with that of technology by capitalizing on the flourishing eCommerce boom. Despite its digitization efforts, the aerospace domain has been lagging behind the rest of the world by at least a decade’s worth of modern-day progress. Dzulkiflee Taib, CEO and founder, Matchbyte, says that the reason behind the sluggish pace can be attributed to the fact that most airlines are legacy carriers. While the relatively smaller Low-Cost Carriers (LCCs) are adopting technology much swifter than legacy carriers. Having laid its cornerstone on the grounds of helping LCCs to adapt to technology at the “speed of light” and later evolving to serve the slower legacy market, Matchbyte has carved a niche for itself in airline eCommerce. “We equip airlines with the right tools—such as booking engines— and the surrounding infrastructure to take their business proposition faster to market,” evinces Taib.

Owing to its unique ability to leverage innovative technologies, Matchbyte is poised at the helmsmanship as one of the fastest growing companies in the travel industry. White Knight Internet Booking Engine (IBE) and Joom|Air Content Management System (CMS) form the crux of the company’s solutions portfolio to deliver unsurpassed levels of speed, efficiency, and quality.

Expediting the implementation and customization of online reservation systems within relatively shorter timeframes is what Matchbyte does best. “Our seasoned teams can deploy and make a system go live within two to three months as opposed to the industry standards of six to twelve months,” extols Taib.

To drive “speed to market,” White Knight has in-built components, each serving a specific functionality ranging from standard booking, manage booking, web check-in to ancillary features, travel agent, corporate portals, and more. Once implemented, airlines have an easy-to-use interface with drag-and-drop components facilitating airlines to amend business rules when required. “For these low-cost carriers, White Knight accelerates delivery, maximizes IBE performance, and ultimately provides a rich end-customer experience,” explains Taib.
