Aluvii is an all-in-one, POS software for the amusement and leisure industries and includes all modules needed to run an efficient business. Because Aluvii is cloud-based, it’s easy to set up and use, accessible on any device, allows data sharing across multiple locations, and is extremely affordable.
Aluvii is revolutionizing the way amusement and leisure businesses operate and mange business. Never before has an amusement software solution required so little investment and infrastructure and yet delivered so many modules and functions. In addition, Aluvii is far easier to use than the legacy solutions and adds time efficiencies and cost savings to your bottom line.
The Aluvii solution is best suited for Amusement Parks, Waterparks, Family Fun Centers, Play Cafes, Wake Parks, Aqua Parks, Ski Areas, Museums, Zoos & Aquariums. Although Aluvii works great with businesses of all types in the amusement, leisure, and hospitality markets.
We don’t want you to spend a fortune either, which is why Aluvii has a simple, customer driven, pricing model where the costs depend on how big your business is.
All plans include one initial system login, but you can add as many access points as you need. And with our simple, cloud-based, pay-as-you-go plan there’s no big licensing fees, and no additional servers or IT staff required. It’s one simple monthly payment. Done.
Aluvii is quick and easy to get up and running. Likely one of the easiest you’ll ever deal with. On average our team will take a few days to a week to work with you to set up and configure your system. This includes migrating your customer list for you.
Once your system is up and running you will need to build your products and services and personalize your system to fit your business. Some users complete this process within a few hours, and others take days or even weeks depending on how many SKUs they have and how much time they can dedicate to the setup.
We do understand that time is money for entrepreneurs, so in order to make setup as quick and painless as possible, we recommend that you prepare the following files before starting the process:
- List of all products
- List of prices and tax information
- List of SKUs or barcodes
- List of customers
If you need someone to walk you through the process, just get in touch with us and our support staff will assist you.
We pride ourselves in integrating with most all relevant hardware manufacturers and models (over 200 different devices) including equipment you already own. This includes cash drawers, receipt printers, data card printers, and ticket printers. In addition, all input devices will work with Aluvii including barcode scanners, RFID readers & accessories, webcams, etc. If there is a device that we don’t support, we’ll make efforts to complete integration before you deploy.
In addition, Aluvii’s patent-pending hardware technology allows you to control and manage your company hardware from one central location. Your existing hardware becomes web-enabled making “dumb” hardware smart.
Aluvii also allows users to share devices, which reduces the number of devices required compared to any other software solution in the industry.
Be sure to check out our Recommended Hardware Page for detailed specs on the hardware, peripherals, and computers compatible with Aluvii.
No. We host everything for you making our job easier. Although you own your company data within the database, we will host it for you on our secure servers.
Since Aluvii is web-based, it is operating system and browser agnostic. Meaning, all major operating systems and browsers are supported including Windows, OSX, Chrome, Firefox, etc. You can access the system from any internet-enabled device, anywhere.
First off, good for you for deciding to use a tablet-based solution. An increasing number of Aluvii users are opting for mobile POS systems because they’re sleek, portable, and allow them to bring the checkout process to their customers.
And yes, Aluvii runs great on a tablet. All you need is an internet connection and access to the Aluvii system.
No worries. Aluvii will do the heavy lifting for you. We want to make your transition as seamless and painless as possible. Our migration service is included with our standard setup and implementation program and includes customer data, membership data, employee information, product and inventory data, and gift card data. All we need from you is a recent database backup.
Most people who switch to Aluvii never look back. Operators love the software’s user-friendly and intuitive interface, as well as its features and integrations. You don’t have to take our word for it though; check out the examples of happy Aluvii customers on our customers page.
However, we understand that each business is unique and not all tools may be a good fit for you. That’s why we invite you to take a tour of our software on the tour page of this site and see if it meets your needs.
And finally, you can always talk to our trusty sales consultants for any specific questions or concerns and they’ll help you decide if Aluvii really is right for you. Drop us a line at [email protected].
We wouldn’t want you to get stuck either. Fortunately, Aluvii support is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Email support is free with all trial and billed subscriptions so you can send us a message whenever you get stuck. Priority phone, email, and chat support is included for free with Aluvii Standard and Plus subscriptions. Additionally, you can consult our Help Center any time to find the answer to your question.
We understand seasonal business and some times of year are better than others. Although we require monthly payments all year, give us a call and we’ll work with you to meet your needs.
While we highly recommend that you run Aluvii with a stable Internet connection, we know that occasionally, your web provider might let you down. We recommend that you utilize a backup internet source in case your primary connection is lost. Contact us for recommendations.
Needless to say, you should invest in a reliable Internet connection to make sure that Aluvii (along with other parts of your business) can function without a hitch.
Yes, indeed. Aluvii works great for businesses with multiple locations and it makes it easy to manage your inventory and customer information across all your sites. Note that additional fees will apply for your other stores.
You can relax with Aluvii. We don’t treat data security lightly. All of our web servers and databases are hosted on Microsoft Azure Platform, which is a $15 billion global datacenter infrastructure. All data transactions are secured through 2098 bit encryption. And in fact, Aluvii doesn’t store any sensitive data (like credit card info) so data breaches are highly unlikely. In the unlikely event of a data breach, we do our best to notify you within 72 hours of the incident to inform you with as much detail as possible. As far as crashes or outages, transactional and system data is backed up every 5 minutes to prevent data loss. All servers are replicated and mirrored across at least two geographically diverse locations globally so in the event (again, highly unlikely) that something goes wrong, your data will remain safe.
If anything, your data is actually safer when you store it in the cloud compared to saving it locally. Why? Because in case (knock on wood) something happens to your devices (i.e. you get the blue screen of death or they get stolen) you’ll still be able to access and take control of your information using other devices that can log into Aluvii.
Talk to us! Really. We’d be happy to discuss your questions or concerns so you can make the right decision. write us at [email protected] or call (801) 901-7900.
