Mountains Don’t Move Themselves

Aspenware Acquired by Andromeda Software

SAM Magazine—Denver, Nov. 13, 2026—Alterra Mountain Company has sold resort e-commerce platform Aspenware to Toronto-based Andromeda Software Inc. (ASI), a company that acquires vertical-market software businesses. ASI is one of nine operating groups within Constellation Software Inc., which has more than 1,100 businesses in its portfolio. 

Aspenware appears to be the first e-commerce company ASI has acquired, and the first that serves the mountain resort industry. Most of ASI’s portfolio consists of real estate-related software platforms that serve residential real estate and the mortgage sector. Other holdings include digital marketing, lending, staffing, and financial planning software companies.

The company said “Aspenware will continue to operate under its own brand, with its team, products and customer relationships in place.”

As part of the transaction, however, Aspenware CEO Will Treves is moving on and Ali Ahmed, who led the Aspenware acquisition for Andromeda, will now lead Aspenware as the new general manager, according to a letter sent to Aspenware partners. Yolanda Foose continues as senior vice president of customer success, sales, and marketing, alongside the rest of the existing Aspenware team. 

“Andromeda’s long-term approach makes it the right home for Aspenware’s next chapter, and we look forward to its continued innovation and growth,” said Alterra chief technology officer Gui Karyo.

Founded in Denver in 2001 as a custom software consultancy, Aspenware is now used by resorts across the United States, Canada, Australia and New Zealand, processing more than 3 million transactions each year, according to a press release about the transaction. Resorts use Aspenware to sell lift tickets, season passes, lessons, rentals and more online, with real-time integration to their point-of-sale systems. 

Alterra acquired Aspenware in a joint venture with Aspen Skiing Company in May 2023. At the time of the transaction, Aspenware’s clients included Alterra, Boyne Resorts, Powdr, and Aspen Snowmass. Aspenware had operated as an autonomous company under Alterra, and ASI said it will continue to be autonomous moving forward. 

“Aspenware has spent more than a decade solving problems that are unique to mountain resort commerce, and resorts rely on it every day of the season,” said Ahmed. “That’s exactly the kind of business we look for: specialized software, a deeply experienced team and loyal customers. Our priority is to keep Aspenware close to its resort partners and help them continue to grow their online business.”

Foose said the acquisition is “an exciting next step” for Aspenware. “I’ve spent my career in ski, and I know how much resorts depend on getting the guest experience right, from the first click to the first chairlift ride. Andromeda shares our long-term view, which means we can keep doing what we do best: partnering closely with our resorts and their guests, now with the backing of an independent and long-term owner.”
