Celebrity Makes Major Purchase Of SPI Software
July 29, 2008 by Timeshare News
To accommodate recent growth and plans for expansion, Celebrity Resorts recently purchased Systems Products International (SPI)’s Orange Systems vacation ownership enterprise software suite. The SPI software will replace the legacy software from Resort Computer Corporation (RCC).
Matt Brosious, SPI director of sales, adds, “Celebrity Resorts is making a substantial investment in SPI Orange Systems Enterprise Software Suite. Many other major companies use SPI as a departmental solution for Sales, Reservations, Marketing, Dues/Loans accounting and so forth. Celebrity Resorts will be implementing all SPI modules on an integrated enterprise-wide basis and therefore represents one of the most important deals yet for SPI.”

Chief Operating Officer of Celebrity Resorts C. Craig Lewis says, “We were extremely impressed with SPI’s Orange Systems enterprise suite. The software is complete and easy to use, and its functionality will assist us in streamlining operations in our growing company. We were also pleased that our financial investment in the software affords us the convenience of being able to adapt the technology to truly fit our changing needs.”

For Scott D. Zane, Sr. Director of Support Services/IMS at Celebrity Resorts, it was all about the technology and flexibility. “With SPI’s Orange Systems software, we can meet many of our needs out of the box with a superior technology platform,” says Zane. “More importantly, SPI is an open system and having the ability to modify forms and reports, even develop new functions within SPI as our business evolves, was a primary consideration for our decision.”
