Case Study: Outdoor Elegance achieves improved reporting, inventory control, and operational efficiency with STORIS

A Tech Competitive Advantage for a Casual Retailer

Outdoor Elegance is a family‑owned 27,000 sq. ft. patio design center in La Verne, CA, selling outdoor furniture, grills and accessories. As technology became essential to the home‑furnishings trade, their long‑running, unsupported software proved limited—especially for reporting, inventory control and day‑to‑day business insights—so they set out to find a modern retail solution.

They selected STORIS and went live in early 2015; with hands‑on implementation and training they gained accurate, intuitive reporting, stronger inventory control (later adding barcoding), streamlined sales‑order to purchase‑order workflows, and easier financial management. Ongoing STORIS support and industry‑focused tools gave Outdoor Elegance better operational visibility and a competitive merchandising advantage.
