accesso Technology Group (AIM: ACSO), the premier technology solutions provider for attractions and venues worldwide, today announced its acquisition of Paradocs Mountain Software (“Paradocs”) – a leading Canadian-based provider of cutting-edge software solutions specifically for the ski industry. Paradocs’ all-in-one mountain management solution – MtnOS – is now accesso Paradox, adding to accesso‘s globally renowned portfolio of technology.
Paradocs was established in 2001 to help operators maximize the mountain experience for their visitors. The hosted, all-in-one mountain management solution, MtnOS – now accesso Paradox – is considered one of the most powerful ski-specific operating systems on the market, currently leveraged by 48 Canadian and 2 U.S.-based resorts to optimize both operations and the guest experience. The flexible, integrated solution empowers ski areas to take full control of their operations across ticketing and passes, snow school, retail and equipment rental, food & beverage, administration and online sales.
“Accesso is passionate about serving the ski industry, and incorporating Paradocs’ specific expertise and experience into our offering is a powerful step forward in addressing the unique and evolving technology demands of the burgeoning ski market,” said Steve Brown, accesso CEO. “Adding this contemporary and powerful solution to our offering supports Accesso’s long-standing commitment to serving as the industry’s premier ski solutions provider.”
This acquisition demonstrates accesso‘s longstanding commitment to ski and snowsports by unlocking an even more powerful, flexible and innovative array of available technology options for operators worldwide to enhance the guest experience.
“We are thrilled to join forces with Accesso – a truly like-minded innovator that shares Paradocs’ dedication to ski and snowsports with a customer-first approach,” said Paradocs CEO and Founder Nicolas Dubé. “Our team at Paradocs is excited to play an expanded role in the overall advancement of our beloved industry, and we look forward to continued success with Accesso.”
“We greatly admire the Paradocs team’s approach to partnership and their development of a solution that directly addresses the unique needs of the ski industry,” said Andrew Jacobs, accesso CCO. “We’re excited to further expand the reach of Accesso Paradox across the ski industry and to help our clients truly maximize the solution’s potential.”
Under the terms of the deal, Paradocs’ 38-person team of ski technology professionals will continue working under the accesso umbrella. Dubé will remain available to the accesso team in a consultative capacity.
