What our clients say

One of the key decision points was the scalability and integration opportunities of the technical solution and the flexible approach of the SKIDATA senior management team. For instance we have integrated our online reservation system that allows us to balance demand and availability capacity using yield management technologies.

Manel Moreno Mobility and Commercial Passenger Service Director at Budapest Airport

At Schiphol we invest a lot to provide mobility solutions. There is really a transition in mobility going on with more electric cars and electric buses. But yield management is also important to optimize revenue. We have to be prepared to integrate tomorrow's mobility into our systems.

Dieme Ketel Director Parking & Mobility Services at Schiphol Group

The support is absolutely important - thus, service organizations have to respond quickly: they pick up and solve all issues. With respect to business operation powerful tools are needed and a powerful Control Center gives a helicopter view over all systems.
