    PRESS RELEASE: YachtCloud reveals new website: Technology for Luxury

    YachtCloud is proud to reveal a brand new website, logo and brand slogan as part of an intensive rebranding process. Launched on November 23rd, the new website and fresh branding represent the core of YachtCloud’s guiding philosophy: to set new standards in luxury technology to make the ultra-luxury experience smarter, more personal and complete. 

    As Andre Klepper, YachtCloud Founder, explains, the cancellation of events, travel and more over the past few months provided a rare opportunity to shift focus, and invest in a complete rebranding project. “We’re all excited to share the brand new YachtCloud and launch our totally refreshed website. We’ve taken the past challenging few months and used it as an opportunity to polish and refine our story. Our new website and logo represent who we are: a cool, fresh, innovative company creating truly unique technological products for some of the most exclusive luxury environments in the world. Our mission has always been to bring true innovation to the yachting and luxury industries, and our rebranding represents just that.”

    Technology for Luxury

    The new YachtCloud brand slogan is Technology for Luxury, a representation of YachtCloud’s dedication to creating products purpose-built for the luxury environments they serve. Explaining the philosophy behind YachtCloud’s new brand slogan, Klepper continues. “Technology for Luxury means that we design our products around the requirements and expectations of a luxury environment. The experience of the end-user is put first. Technology has evolved, but the technology we currently see in luxury environments often leaves a gap between what the technology is capable of delivering and high client expectations. Our products bridge that gap and take luxury technology into the future.”

    The YachtCloud lineup comprises six products: OMNIYON, GEST, YIS, CrewBoard, LaundryBoard and Symetric. From complete media and control systems to superior service call devices, each YachtCloud product bridges that gap in the market. Prioritising user-experience and functionality, YachtCloud makes luxury technology easy, simple, and a pleasure to use. 

    The YachtCloud product lineup

    OMNIYON, YachtCloud’s flagship product, was launched at the Monaco Yacht Show in 2015. OMNIYON immediately made waves with its unique blend of media and comfort control, fresh design and unbeatable usability. Since then, OMNIYON has been installed on a number of the world’s best superyachts, proving the market demand for new technology designed with the luxury experience in mind.

    “Too often we see luxury systems offering a user experience that was barely acceptable in the late 90s,” Klepper continues. “OMNIYON proves that clients are looking for something better and that we are equipped to deliver on that demand. The new YachtCloud website and logo are at the heart of our rebranding project. They show something that our clients already know. That we are game-changers when it comes to creating unique technology purpose-built for luxury.”

    Since 2015, the YachtCloud lineup has expanded. It includes GEST, the chic service call system, CrewBoard and LaundryBoard, crew and service professional apps designed to revolutionise efficiency. YIS is a unique Yacht Information System and the latest product from YachtCloud lineup. Explore the new YachtCloud and step into the future of luxury technology.

    Superyacht Technology recently interviewed YachtCloud’s Commercial Director, Roel van der Zwet, in their special yacht Owner’s Guide edition of the magazine.

    “The most talked-about issue between YachtCloud and yacht owners is centred around the gap in innovation and technology and the high expectations of the client not being met. The unseen details that define day to day life on board are often overlooked on yachts. The interior may be chic and comfortable, and the exterior design may be perfect, but consumer solutions such as Netflix often grant far superior user experiences than the systems used on superyachts. That should not be the case – and it works to downgrade the entire yachting experience.”

    IN THE MEDIA: MegaYacht News says Yes to YIS by YachtCloud

    The American superyacht publication MegaYacht News recently featured YIS in their superyacht tenders, toys and products editorial board. Launched in 2020, YIS is the ultimate luxury yacht infotainment system accessible anytime, anywhere.

    Offering owners a modern adventure, YachtCloud’s Yacht Information System is the future of luxury yacht technology, engaging everyone on board with detailed information about their yachting journey in real-time, beautifully presented in interactive 3D detail for a more immersive yachting experience.

    Shining a light on YachtCloud’s latest product, the Megayacht News shared their thoughts on the world’s coolest yacht information system.

    Luxury technology: Say yes to YIS

    “Young and young-at-heart megayacht guests often enjoy observing the captain in the wheelhouse, additionally asking questions. So, YachtCloud, a yachting-technology company, got to thinking. Why not put some of the same navigation details and general yacht operational details in the palms of their hands? Thus, Yacht Information System (YIS) is now out.

    YIS is a software solution and therefore doesn’t use the onboard bandwidth. In fact, it’s a customizable app that owners and guests can download onto their smartphones and tablets. You can request it as an onboard TV channel, too. Regardless, the YachtCloud team of software designers can include a map of your megayacht’s journey. Alternately—or additionally—YIS can show you water depth and the yacht’s speed. The tech geeks among your friends and family can “fly” through the onboard systems, too.”
