Business Intelligence

Your Destination Data In One Clear View 

The Symphony Intelligence Platform brings data, reporting, and expert analysis into one place so DMO teams can move from fragmented information to confident decisions. 

Most Teams Have Enough Data. They’re Short on Time and Clarity. 

Tourism data rarely arrives ready to tell a story. Digital analytics, lodging performance, sales data, and regional sources each come in varying formats, timelines, and definitions of success. Assembling a coherent picture takes hours. Explaining it to a board takes longer. 

Symphony brings those sources together so teams can spend less time assembling reports and more time acting on insights. A harmonized, interactive view gives your team a consistent picture of destination performance that is easy to share when it matters. 

Dynamic Intelligence, Built Around the Decisions That Matter

Once your data is connected, Symphony puts it to work. Monitor visitor trends, track lodging, sales, and marketing performance, and produce board-ready reports, without rebuilding them each cycle. 

Every dashboard is built with intention: from budget planning and campaign tracking to stakeholder reporting and long-term strategy. Interactive views and shareable reports live in one interface, designed for use across DMO teams, and shaped by the same expertise behind our forecasting, economic impact, and market analysis work.

  • Dynamically track trends and the stories behind performance
  • Spot sales, marketing, and tactical opportunities

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Symphony and who is it for?

The Symphony Intelligence Platform is a destination intelligence platform that helps tourism organizations turn complex data into clear insights and confident decisions. Built for destination marketing teams, tourism authorities, and state tourism offices, it brings multiple data sources together into one place so teams can monitor performance, strategize, and communicate results without switching between tools or reconciling conflicting numbers. It is designed for both analysts and senior leaders who need clear, confident reporting, supported by trusted industry intelligence. 

What data can Symphony connect and integrate? 

Symphony works with the data sources destination teams already rely on, including website analytics, social media, campaign performance, lodging trends, visitor profiles, CRM systems, geolocation, credit card, aviation, and marketing attribution results. During onboarding, our team works with you to curate the right data sources and configure Symphony around your intelligence goals.  

How is Symphony different from general analytics tools? 

General-purpose analytics tools are built to visualize data, but they do not provide the integrated and dynamic analytics to turn data into decisions. Symphony is purpose-built for tourism and destination teams. It brings sales, marketing, industry, and visitor data together in one place, scaled to your needs. More importantly, every Symphony client is backed by industry experts who have collectively worked with hundreds of destinations, providing the context and strategic guidance that transform data into meaningful action.  

Who are the industry experts included with Symphony? 

Symphony clients work with experienced travel and tourism professionals, including former leaders from DMOs, hospitality companies, travel research organizations, and destination marketing agencies. Unlike a generic data analyst or account manager, they understand destination sales and marketing and the specific challenges teams face when reporting to boards and other stakeholders. 

What does getting started with Symphony look like?

Onboarding begins with a scoping process to confirm data sources, reporting needs, and strategic priorities. Your Client Manager leads the onboarding process, coordinating with our onboarding team to configure your reports and train your team. During the scoping process, we’ll establish an implementation timeline, with most clients receiving their initial platform within six to eight weeks. After launch, your team continues to receive ongoing support, platform enhancements, and access to new data integrations as they become available. 

Can Symphony support both day-to-day reporting and long-term planning? 

Absolutely. Symphony gives your team a live, connected view of destination performance for monitoring trends, preparing stakeholder updates, and measuring results. For long-term planning, it provides historical context, benchmarking, and expert interpretation needed to make confident strategic decisions. Many clients use Symphony as both an operational tool and the foundation for annual planning.
