POS Cash Register Systems from Volanté
An efficient cash register system may be the best investment you'll ever make
The Slope Report read, "excellent conditions". It was cold but sunny and the slopes were full of skiers
and snowboarders. The powder? Perfect. A group of skiers were headed towards
the lodge bar. Inside the bar they waited patiently as the bartender keyed in their seating numbers,
drinks and bar tab. It took over four minutes for them to get their drinks; the same amount of time it
took for them to decide on dinner at another pub.
Capturing the skiers during a weather-perfect season is simple. Capturing their food and beverage business
isn't always so easy. It requires not only need a customer-friendly environment, but also a user-friendly
POS (point of sale) cash register system for efficiency. Today's technology provides this…and more. POS cash
register terminals that continuously synchronize with each other, endless report options, alcohol inventory
controlled by bottle weights and computerized tap monitors, staff time and attendance, ski, school, and
guest database management, and so much more are available. Let's face it. It takes more than cooperative
weather to run a ski resort.
So, when choosing a POS software system, be certain to explore all the options. Cost is always a factor, but unless the
software gives you all the management tools you need and is fully supported, an initially less expensive system can end up
costing you much more. There are as many point of sale cash register systems available as there are skis and choosing the
right one can be confusing and time-consuming. Aside from meeting technological requirements, your POS system must remain
easy to use, with speed and accuracy. Customers, Employees, Managers and Sales Staff are all affected by a
point of sale system. So, imagine first what you would like the ideal computer cash register system to do
for your business; make a list of features you hope to find. Chances are you'll find all of them on today's
market.
Tesoro Technologies and Volanté POS Systems stand out above the rest. Wired or wireless, Windows or Linux, networked or independent terminals, Volanté is up for
any challenge. Since 1993, Volanté System developers have been designing equipment that is
"cash register tough and computer smart" to serve some of the biggest and best.
Snow Valley Ski Resort, located in Barrie, Ontario, wanted a POS system that could produce ID cards and
time passes, manage a client database and ski school, as well as handling all their food and beverage and
retail services. The geographical location had Director, Peter Haney, concerned at first.
"Like most ski resorts, we are very remote. We needed a satellite tower and wireless system.
We also looked at a lot of providers and found that most of the companies didn't offer the hospitality end
we needed. Volanté is hospitality."
Tesoro had to install a fail-safe, independently running system for the remote summit area that could also be
integrated with the high volume operations below. Using both wired and wireless network topology, the system
operates without software failure despite the unstable power and network issues. Snow Valley Ski Resort also
utilizes the database of guests and 5,800 pass holders to generate email broadcasts, which enhances their marketing
plan. "We're real pleased with Volanté. It's an entity that grows and evolves along with our business," says Haney.
In fact, Volanté has revolutionized the wireless POS industry. Our creative approach to wireless mobile
computing makes Volanté the perfect POS software choice for not only ski resorts, but for other venues as
well, such as stadiums, trade shows, casinos, arenas, race tracks and outdoor sales areas where conventional
POS cash register systems aren't practical nor feasible.
Tesoro Technologies is at the forefront of a new generation of guest management technology, and we're still producing.
Recent breakthroughs in point of sale development are allowing a full range of services and back office capabilities never
before considered.
So, when you're looking for a more efficient POS cash register system that can create "excellent conditions"
for your business, spend the extra time researching your options - it may turn out to be the best investment you've
ever made.
