Success Stories
PER LEI, Esslingen
PER LEI is a shoe retailer run by its owner with two stores in the town of Esslingen, Germany. Thanks to its range of high-quality products, the store established itself as the go-to place for shoppers early on which led to the expansion of the business. Today, it employs seven staff across two locations.
At the core of the selection process stood the need for the perfect inventory and merchandise management tool
Over the years, PER LEI used several different ERP and POS products. Their internal requirements and process flows grew more complex over time, and it also became increasingly demanding to adhere to fiscal and compliance regulations. The result was a number of different solutions that only ever fit partially and had to be replaced repeatedly.

Project goal
A comprehensive & future-proof solution
Moving from outdated to cutting-edge
PER LEI moved with the times and replaced the out-of-date POS with a modern system. Despite the breadth of features, however, it didn’t fulfill all the owner’s requirements. What was missing were the clear advantages that come with a cloud-based solution: real-time data, real-time reporting & business insights, on any device and from anywhere. These requirements paved the way for the modernization of the business and another overhaul of systems.
That’s when in 2020 the relationship with advarics was struck who impressed immediately with their cloud-based SAAS solution. At the start of COVID, the implementation project had to be put on hold. Nobody knew what the future would hold, including PER LEI and its owner. In May 2021 however, the modular ERP and POS technology were implemented successfully at PER LEI.
"advarics is a great system that would make everyday work easier for many shoe retailers."

advarics is the real deal: breadth and depth of functionality, continuous innovation and outstanding service
The implementation of the new system was easier than expected. The advarics team and in particular the project manager were very involved and handled a lot of the heavy lifting. All of the new users were introduced to the system step by step. Today advarics is at the heart of the business: trading insight from anywhere and anytime, real time data and updates. The business doesn’t need to stop when the owner is at a trade show and updates can also happen across both stores. The seamless integration with the online store means inventory and merchandise are always up to date and customers have an outstanding retail experience – offline and online.
On the odd occasion when there is a problem, either the advarics support team or the project manager are at hand to help.
PER LEI knows it can depend on advarics. In summary: it’s the real deal.
