CapTrav Frequently Asked Questions

Is the CapTrav solution easy to use?

The CapTrav solution was built with the non-technical user in mind. With an intuitive interface and easy navigation, you don’t have to have a masters in computer science to use our service! Most of our customers are off and running after a short introductory online training session. We also have a video library available to help you.

How long does it take to set up?

It typically takes 3-5 business days to get the CapTrav service up and running. Once the system is running, our support team will work with you for 30 days to provide any “fine-tuning” you need. That’s it!

How does the CapTrav solution work?

The CapTrav service is offered as a cloud offering. This allows for fast deployments and provides you with the ability to easily access your corporate travel data from anywhere, securely.

Will the CapTrav solution meet my company’s privacy and security requirements?

We have designed the CapTrav solution with data integrity and security at the top of the list of priorities. Our solution has the flexibility to adhere to the strictest of corporate policies. That being said, every company is unique when it comes to privacy and security. As a result, we find it helpful to introduce your company’s technical, privacy and security teams early on in the solution discussion to ensure their incorporation into the approval process.

Does CapTrav do anything with my company’s data, like sell to third parties?

No. Our business model is based on providing the best product and service / support to our customers. We do not sell your data to third parties. CapTrav considers your company’s data your company’s – and we see ourselves as stewards of that data for your use in making the appropriate business decisions for your company.

Can I specify how I deploy the CapTrav solution?

Does the CapTrav solution normalize corporate travel data?

Yes. We normalize hotel data down do the property address, providing you a more detailed view into your hotel suppliers. Additionally, we capture the actual ticket number from the airline which greatly facilitates your conversation with your airline supplier(s).

Are there any suppliers you don’t work with currently?

No. We can collect data from just about any supplier, including: air, hotel, rail, car, shared economy and demand economy, i.e. taxi / Uber / Lyft. We can even work with extended stay suppliers and black car / limousine suppliers.

What if I change suppliers or TMCs while using CapTrav?

Because the CapTrav solution was created to be supplier agnostic, you have a high degree of flexibility from a supplier / TMC perspective. Because we can work with simultaneous TMCs, the CapTrav solution can provide some consistency from a data management perspective while you are changing providers. Additionally, because CapTrav is your data repository you can keep the data from prior suppliers giving you complete control and access over data from prior TMCs.
