Short on time?

Let EVE change that for you. As a dive centre owner do you have the desire to increase your profitability and change the amount of time you spend doing everything yourself, without busting your current overheads?If the answer is, 'Yes' you might like to consider EVE (Electronic Virtual Employee), the complete dive centre management software package created by ISSYS (Integrated Scuba Systems). You can also take advantage of EVE Online – a package that offers eBusiness software solutions that are easy to implement.

Designed in conjunction with PADI Dive Centres, and partnered by PADI, EVE is here.

EVE is potentially the best keep secret in the industry today maybe because current users are keen to keep the great advantages that EVE offers them to themselves.

Do not let them get away with it!
