What began as a chance encounter between a Swiss and a German on vacation evolved into a 30-year success story. As the first Windows-based rental software, SPORTS RENTAL revolutionized the sports market and is now at home in 25 countries. On this anniversary, we look back with gratitude and forward with excitement.

The SR2025 update introduces enhanced REST server performance, improved handling of external reservations, and new features in the ReservationsManager, such as marking reservations as complete and real-time availability checks. Additional updates include wider customer search fields, a modernized start window, and enhanced maintenance services for streamlined operations.

We will be delivering a great software package that will allow you to benefit from a number of new features this summer. More security, up-to-date technology, higher speed and stability - optimally equipped for the future.

The SR Software GmbH & Co. KG announces a significant change in its business strategy, moving away from the rigid sales model and ending the long-standing partnership with Montana Technology for Wintersports. With this shift, customers will now receive products and support directly from SR Software, allowing for more targeted responses to individual needs. The company emphasizes its readiness for the upcoming season, introducing the SR2024 pre-release and offering direct support. While the change marks the closure of a chapter, SR Software remains committed to providing software services. The strategic realignment aims to enhance and tailor the customer experience. For further details, customers are encouraged to stay tuned for upcoming information.

The latest update from S|R Software presents a pre-release for the upcoming winter season. Special highlights are the extended reservation window with comprehensive store selection and the adjustments in SPORTS RENTAL, which enable a holistic display of all reserved items. The start window has been optimized for a better user experience. A detailed description of the new components, such as the extended booking information in the main window, will follow shortly. Customers can already benefit from the new options to prepare for the upcoming season.

The new S|R Reservation Manager is the central point of contact for online reservations, with immediate display and many improvements. Reservations are visible directly in SPORTS RENTAL, without download. New features include an improved overview, optimized filters, direct reservation and model assignment as well as enhanced e-mail functionalities. The manual is available for download.

Skipline has made further improvements and implemented customer requests, with the shopping cart being the first important element to be designed as an attractive "slide-in" shopping cart. This makes the booking process more effective by immediately displaying the products in a shopping cart that can be opened from the side. Depending on whether on mobile or desktop devices, this is done in a suitable variant.

As the SR-REST server is already important for the new Internet reservation and will take on even more centralized tasks in the future, we have included the associated check in the system check with the upcoming SR update, and if the RestSever is not active, a warning will also be issued.
