Simplified and streamlined operations with a new POS system

Ellivuori Ski Center, located on an island in Sastamala, Finland, is a versatile ski resort catering to beginners, enthusiasts, and park skiers. The rental shop offers necessary equipment, while the ski school provides lessons for both skiing and snowboarding.

During the summer, Ellivuori transforms into a bike park with eight downhill biking trails suitable for all skill levels. Full-suspension bikes and protective gear are available for rent at the park.

The goal of the renovation project was to implement a modern POS system to facilitate the smooth operation of day-to-day business activities

Ski resorts operate in a fast-paced environment, often requiring efficient service for large numbers of customers while ensuring the best possible customer experience. Ellivuori Ski Center had been using an outdated POS system that couldn't meet the demands of modern business. In 2022, the center decided it was time to update their POS system. They sought a cloud-based POS system based on modern technology to upgrade one of their core business systems to meet contemporary standards. Additionally, they aimed to achieve synergies by integrating other crucial business systems into a unified entity where information seamlessly flowed between systems. It was crucial for Ellivuori to find software that allowed real-time availability of data required for accounting within the financial management system without separate runs or laborious manual updates. Simplifying and streamlining daily operations while optimizing business processes were among the primary objectives.
