Success Stories
Pizblanc, Italy
Alpine style meets modern technology:
when South Tyrolean tradition embraces cloud-based innovation.
Fashion in Motion
In the midst of the breathtaking Dolomites, where international guests and local fashion enthusiasts meet, Pizblanc has found a special place in the heart of Ortisei since 2004. With the guiding principle “ACTIVE with STYLE and QUALITY,” the company combines alpine identity with international fashion flair—from Stone Island to Armani to Ralph Lauren.
What began as an exclusive multi-label store quickly grew into a small empire: in addition to its flagship store in Ortisei, Pizblanc now also operates a Mammut store locally and a Fred Perry store in Milan. But with growth came the challenges of an outdated IT infrastructure.

Cloud-based from the beginning: Visionary decision pays off
Pizblanc opted for advarics back in 2016. While searching for a modern, flexible merchandise management solution, it quickly became clear that advarics' cloud solution offered a future-proof platform that combines user-friendliness with maximum flexibility.
An important aspect was that the on-site hardware infrastructure could be significantly reduced. Expensive servers and complex VPN solutions became superfluous – a clear advantage in terms of cost savings and stability. What was revolutionary in 2016 has now become standard: cloud-based merchandise management. But Pizblanc recognized the advantages early on and took the plunge – with resounding success.
The implementation brought immediate improvements: “Savings on hardware for servers and networks – VPN no longer necessary! The user-friendliness of Retail and Cash had an immediate wow effect on employees,” the team reports enthusiastically.
The intuitive operation was particularly impressive right from the start. While other systems require complicated training, Pizblanc employees were able to work with advarics almost immediately. This user-friendliness not only saves time, but also costs for complex training processes.
All-in-one solution with Italian flair
Pizblanc's vision is clear: a genuine all-in-one solution for omnichannel retailing. Whether in-store or online, today's customers expect a consistent shopping experience. advarics provides exactly that. Even adapting to country-specific requirements, such as fiscal cash register regulations in Italy, was implemented by advarics without any problems.
This flexibility is what distinguishes standard software from a genuine industry solution. Ongoing support is extremely straightforward: support requirements are minimal, as the system is largely self-explanatory. This user-friendliness is the result of well-thought-out development – complex processes are handled in the background, while the user interface remains intuitive.
“advarics is state of the art for us. We have recommended the system several times and have never regretted it.”
