Victorinox

With a rich heritage spanning decades, Victorinox has established itself as a symbol of precision, durability, and innovation. From outdoor adventurers to seasoned professionals, they continue to inspire and empower individuals with their versatile and reliable tools. Victorinox operates a successful retail chain with locations across 8 countries globally.

Victorinox sought to upgrade their legacy system with a modern and SaaS-operated POS solution. They prioritized a web-based system accessible through a browser, eliminating complex installations. Another crucial requirement was a well-documented and modern API to facilitate seamless data exchange with other systems.

“Victorinox was looking for a modern and SaaS operated POS system. Something that was not available from big names POS vendors by the time we searched. Erply already had it. Working in a browser. No big footprint installations necessary,” says Sandro Versiglioni, Service Owner Retail POS of Victorinox.

Victorinox faced significant issues related to integration and multinational operations. These challenges included:

Victorinox's existing POS system was not seamlessly integrated with their enterprise resource planning (ERP) software. This lack of integration resulted in manual data entry, increased the risk of errors, and hindered efficient data sharing between different departments.

Victorinox operates retail stores in multiple countries, each with its own unique payment regulations and systems. The retail chain lacked a standardized payment solution that could be used across all locations.

Victorinox needed a POS software that could effectively support their multinational operations. This included accommodating various languages, tax structures, and fiscalization requirements specific to each country of operation.

Victorinox chose Erply POS after an extensive search among major providers, as they were unable to find a solution that met their requirements. Erply stood out with its comprehensive functionality right out of the box. It had all the features and capabilities that Victorinox was looking for. With Erply, Victorinox found a perfect fit, allowing them to streamline their retail operations and deliver a seamless customer experience.
