DSC Software

About DSC Software

DSC was started in 1979 having developed one of the earliest Hotel Management Systems in Canada. Originally running on Data General Main Frames, the system has evolved through five versions to the current DSC System on Microsoft’s Azure Cloud. Tenets of DSC success have included well known reliability, simplicity and lower cost than most competitors.

The focus of DSC Hotel System design has always been to make it as easy to learn as possible. Hiring is a major challenge and hotels need to be able to train new staff quickly. DSC menus are simplistic and system functions are designed for speed: training usually only takes a few minutes with quick check-ins, checkouts, and an easy night audit process. DSC installation staff are former Hotel Managers and can install systems in a few hours.
