We have supplied systems for use throughout the United States, Europe and have been providing fully integrated solutions to both the Middle and Far East for over 6 years
“DDS has provided their Totem® XQ10 queue solution as the key component of the front end technology for the Walt Disney World® queue-line system, Fastpass®”
Walt Disney World®
Totem® is very proud of the relationships that we have built up in this industry over the years, we have been involved with designing and implementing systems at some of the largest and most famous UK and US theme parks. Our portfolio of project work in this market is second to none. We understand the endurance and heavy usage that rides and attractions at theme parks and water parks incur, and we know what impact visitor satisfaction has on your operation.
“We recently installed DDS’ ticketing machines for use in our busy Amusement Park. The machines are simple to operate and this has resulted in better efficiency and smoother operation. The team at Directional Data are friendly and helpful and nothing is ever too much trouble. My only disappointment is that we should have installed this system years ago!”
Sean Lawler, Knowsley Safari Park
As well as world famous attractions we are suppliers to a massive amount of travelling showmen and carnival operators all throughout Europe. We have supplied our products to sites in Germany, Holland, Ireland, France, Scandinavia, and UK. We know what features are required from their ticket machines and what is expected from us. We are able to provide durable equipment, which can withstand transportation around the country, and can provide vital cash control where it is needed.
“Whilst operating a funfair throughout Ireland we have found the Totem machines to be useful and speedy at the point of sale. The reports and sales analysis have helped to control our cash and monitor customer preferences. Throughout the ten year period, that we have deployed the Totem machines, both the products and service from DDS have been excellent.”
