Aloha Kapalua! - Visual One and the Kapalua Land Company Ink Agreement

Rockville, MD (USA) | Starting at HITEC 2003, the exclusive and world famous Kapalua Resort in Maui began the process of searching for solutions to modernize its PMS, Golf, and Condo software systems. The resort was looking for technologies that would provide significant gains in performance, features and reliability over the existing systems. Today their two-year search ended with the decision to install the software products from Visual One Systems.

The installation will include Property Management, Golf Management, Back Office Accounting, Condominium Accounting, Preventative Maintenance, Retail Point-of-Sale, Web Page Reservations (including condo owner web bookings) and Guest Activity Scheduling for the property’s 300 villas, three championship golf courses and seven retail outlets. Because all of the applications were developed by V1 programmers and use the same programming language and database engine (MS-SQL), the resort will benefit from the seamless integration features that Visual One provides.
