AutoFluent Erfahrungen

we are a growing business and find the help and support techs amazing at sorting out our issues.

Vorteile:

Love on line chat!!!!! best thing out there. Software is easy to use and to teach to new people. The variety of reports are very helpful to bookkeeping. Entering parts into the system is simple. Tracking is a huge asset to us with inventory and mechanic hours, sales, discounts and aging customers. this system is very user friendly.

Nachteile:

When running reports it would be nice if you didnt have to start over to modify the customer name. It would be nice if it would total the open work order amounts at the bottom or if you could run a report of open work orders at month end.

Franco's Auto Service Review

Kommentare: So far our shop experience with the software is working out really good. I can see that there is still some of the program we have not yet started to use. Maybe one day the guys with utilize the appointment schedule.

Vorteile:

How it is updated into QuickBooks daily.

Nachteile:

Part of my job is checking all the work orders. Is there a way you can look up work order numbers faster. Once you have a work order open if you could type the next work order number on the open screen and it would direct you to that next open work order.

Helps a ton!

Kommentare: Great for inventory management, not great for employee/customer management in my opinion.

Vorteile:

Helps us keep track of inventory in the shop so we know what we have and what we need to order

Nachteile:

I don't really like the UI of the employee and customer management side so we use a different software for that aspect.

Better than the best!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Kommentare: Out of 10 stars I would give it a 10, it has been the one thing since we opened that hasn't given us a problem, when there is anything that I may have messed up it is just a phone call or help desk connect and it is fixed they even help us with connecting to our own server when our computers were hit by a storm, great guys, great service, THE BEST PROGRAM!!!

Vorteile:

Easy to use, they have packages set up and if you copy them it makes the world easier to live in!!! It has everything you need from a big 8 bay shop to the two bay garage. It is actually fun to tinker with, you have the question button on every screen in case you need help, They are right there when you need help with the control desk connection or a simple phone call away.They also have the live chat in an instant. Every thing is pretty self explanatory and works flawlessly with Quick Books, they also have a tire sizer that is the best thing since sliced bread for changing tire size, works great with mitchell and all data!!!! Much better than the other software that we started with it took us two weeks and it is the best decision we EVER MADE!!!!!!!!!!

Nachteile:

Haven't found one yet but it's only been 5 months, but don't think we will run into one. The only thing ( and I have been told they are working on this one) is the online all data that we are running ( can't really afford the full disk version) is not working yet, we will soon be in the red enough to get that service from all data. The vehicle look up with the vin and plate is the Bomb with vehicle information.

Excellent software for organizing , Has helped me keep track of all my inventory and employee times.

Kommentare: All of my information is in order and I can see how my business is doing.

Vorteile:

I like most about autofluent how the are extremely detailed when it comes to an invoice/work order. I can find any specific info on any specific person and or date.

Nachteile:

The least thing I like about autofluent is that Its not easy finding out where I bought part from when I open a closed invoice. I have to go through 3 menus in order to find out which vendor I purchased the outside part from.

Good software but would tweak a few things

Kommentare: I am pretty happy with the reports and being able to keep an eye on profit margin. I would like to be able to upload photos to the inspection and be able to email it to our clients. We have also had problems interfacing with other products.

Vorteile:

Able to pull reports quickly and monitor gross profit all the time.

Nachteile:

Cannot email inspection to client. Cannot add photos to inspection.

SWANTYS lube

Kommentare: HAVE GRATE CUSTOMER SERVICE. EASY PROGRAM TO USE. WOULD LIKE TO SEE CUSTOMER SERVICE RETURN CALLS FASTER. OVER ALL WE ARE HAPPY WITH THE PROGRAM.

Vorteile:

IT EASY TO USE

This software does it all!

Vorteile:

The best parts are the amount of things this software can do! I am able to track my profits and hours down to the penny. This system is so great once you learn it.

Nachteile:

The only thing I noticed is it takes a while to learn the system but with the amazing support team, I was able to learn all the ins and outs of the system.

Auto Biz Will Help Your Biz

Kommentare: Like many Shop owners I went through the agonizing Process of looking at the some 60 or so different Shop Software programs out there. Tabs Auto Biz was one of the last systems I looked at and I am glad that I took an opportunity to Demo the Software's Capabilities. I wanted a system with expandability, Gadgets, and most importantly good Support! It was immediately apparent to me that the support was going to be strong and I have always been happy with the continued high level of support I have received, from Tabs. Glen, Dave and Brian have shown a keen interest in listening to their customers needs, and continue to work hard and maintaining relevant software. In the year that I have had the Tabs Auto BIz Software I have been able to increase track-able sales as a result of the Email Reminder system, also allowing me to effectively communicate to all of our customers, and cut down on our printing costs .

Vorteile:

Data Transfer offered. Email Estimates, invoices, marketing. The VIKI keyless interface. All of the features of the higher priced systems, at a lower price point. Net-workable. World pac, napa, nextparts, Alldata interfaces. Integrated Credit card payment systems. Easy to learn Great Support Staff. Web Back up. Right click functionality Ease of canned job or Package creation. Very customizable Easy to Read invoices. User generated inspection sheets Clean estimating system Customer Decline and Authorize Features, with reminder emails on the fly!

Nachteile:

Not as many Icons / buttons as some of the other systems.

IMPECCABLE CUSTOMER SERVICE

Kommentare: THE SOFTWARE IS VERY USER FRIENDLY WITH A LOT OF EXTRAS THAT HELP US DO OUR JOB A HECK OF A LOT EASIER. EASY TO FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS. REP. IN TECH SUPPORT IS ALWAYS VERY HELPFUL THE FEW TIMES WE HAVE HAD TO CALL IN FOR HELP. HE'S PROFESSIONAL, VERY FRIENDLY, AND EASY TO UNDERSTAND. EXPLAINS EVERYTHING DOWN TO OUR LEVEL OF KNOWLEDGE ON THIS SOFTWARE.

Vorteile:

VERY EASY TO USE. ANY ISSUES, CUSTOMER SERVICE IS RIGHT THERE AT YOUR FINGER TIPS READY TO HELP.

Nachteile:

CAN'T THINK OF ANY REASONS NOT TO LIKE. WHEN I THINK OF ONE, I WILL LET YOU KNOW.

Best Automotive software in the industry!!!

Kommentare: Great program. Easy to use. Extremely helpful staff. To describe my personality, I HATE CHANGES. ANY CHANGES. But I'm glad I purchased TABS!

Vorteile:

We have been in the tire business for 9 years now. Over the years, we have tried a few different programs before TABS....all which were to exhausting to use. We purchased TABS because of a extremely high recommendation from another tire store owner(who TABS should hire as their salesman) It was the best thing that has happened to us. Besides being extremely easy to use, their Support staff are the best in the industry. This past week, our computers were attacked by a "worm" virus...and it literally contaminated all of our workstations. Troy and Glen of TABS both stepped up and help resolved the situation by doing a speedy analysis and quick reinstall. Unlike some of the Automotive Software Co out there, I was able to dial their Support number...and get someone on the phone the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th time I called. In addition, Glen even picked up the phone late after their closing time to assist me with a full installation after I reformatted the computers.

Nachteile:

No cons. Product is great. Staff is great.

Great customer service and support

Kommentare: We were a paper company when we made the move to Autofluent. We checked out several different options and decided to go with them. We are very happy we did!

Vorteile:

It is very easy to navigate and easy to use. It is a breeze to teach new employees how to navigate the system, we love it!

Nachteile:

The system is not designed for the heavy truck market, but we have been able to make it work for us. It would be great

The software is great. I wish I knew how to utilize all it's features

Kommentare: As stated in review; consumer data base

Vorteile:

The Customer Data Base is the most useful thing for me so far. It's really the only feature I know how to use proficiently

Nachteile:

I still can't figure out what else it does or how to send out emails for services that are pre set....or do projections for coming years ect

Good software, helpful people

Kommentare: Great experience with auto fluent. The only thing I don't like is having to leave a msg for customer service when we are having an issue or question.

Vorteile:

Ease of use

Nachteile:

Having to wait on customer service

very good product for the money spent, tech support is always quick to resolve any issues

Vorteile:

this software is very user friendly, it allows you to manually enter and change almost anything you want, and there are always several was to be able to get to what you are looking for with just a click or two.

Best Tire and Automotive Software

Kommentare: We found this company one day while google searching a problem with our previous software and Quickbooks. The free demo really looked good and so we opted for the free trial and fell in love with it. We were fortunate enough to be one of the first to install the multi-store version and it has been awesome. The part and labor guide intergration works great and saves time while building estimates. If a problem occurs or if help is needed the support staff are fast and really listen to what issues you are having. Autofluent has made a lot of changes for their customers since the release because they are really trying hard to make their software the best. We spent mega bucks on 3 other big software companies prior to finding AutoFluent and feel like this is the best value and feature rich one you can get. No other company will allow you a free trial period and Autofluent is growing and improving everyday to keep up with the demand of new and improved features.

Review of AutoBiz

Kommentare: Not any one program would b a perfect fit for our specialized business, however AutoBiz comes the closest. The biggest benefit of AutoBiz is the program allows us to see profitability in a job from the start and helps us invoice customers quickly after the job is complete. We can see right away the profit in a job and adjust with ease if necessary. The inventory system is very useful and easy to use. Technical support is excellent. There are a few limitations in the AutoBiz program. The reports for customers, vendors, and inventory are a bit cumbersome to use and are limited options and there is no option to save reports you might use repeatedly. Also, once an invoice is finalized there is no way to adjust the pricing or add any charges. Overall AutoBiz is a good program.

NOVEMBER 2012

Kommentare: I would recommend this software.

Vorteile:

The customer service that Troy and Sean provide is exceptional and I couldn't be happier!

Nachteile:

The only true frustration I have with the program is when I need to look at several Work Orders (looking for a vender on a part purchased, etc.) the system will take me back to the home page (and not stay on that customer's history) unless I use preview. If I use preview I can't view the vendor or list pricing. I would love it if the programers could make a "Done" button that would stay on the customer until I was "Done" with that customer. =)

Great program and great people to work with.

Kommentare: We have been using this program since 1/1/2015. We are pleased with the performance of the program. A little tough to get used to at first, but once you get it figured out it is a great program. Monique in the support department has gone all out to help us with our questions. She has a great understanding as to how to get the program to set-up to your individual needs and how to make it save you time. Monique is Awesome to work with.
If you are considering the Auto Biz program, I will answer any questions I can to help you in your decision. Great Program. GREAT Support team.

-Customer support is always helpful and always return your call or email. (Troy is Awesome!!!!) I highly recommend this software for your business, you will not regret the investment.

Tabs #1

Kommentare: I have not seen any software on the market that comes even remotely close to Tabs AutoBiz. My first and only recommendation.

Vorteile:

There is not a more comprehensive, customized system on the market for tire and automotive facilities. It has all aspects of our industry covered. Support is always just moments away and to be able to speak with intelligent, knowledgable staff at all times is a welcome addition to the fantastic software!!

Nachteile:

Have not found any yet....

Best inventory system on the market.

Kommentare: I recommend this system to all auto service shops and tire dealers. This system is the best for all your tire and auto service needs.

Vorteile:

This program is very easy to learn and use. If your looking for a system that does almost anything from managing sales & customers, keeping inventory and also online inventory if your a wholesaler then this is is your system.

Nachteile:

Honestly we have had this system for over 4 years and I haven't found any cons yet.

Shop Management Software

Kommentare: Try it you will like it!

Vorteile:

Easy to use system, integrates with parts catalogs very well, works well with QuickBooks. Very stable and the support is outstanding! They will adapt processes you need very fast, compared to other systems. Very fast and stable database - it does not crash like access databases!

Nachteile:

Need to be able to restore a backup with out vendor help.

Great program. Ideal for the small garage.

Kommentare: I've used this program for 9 months going. Yes, the initial costs are high but there are many options after that. The program works great and the support we had with the Autotabs team was even better. The business has grown from writing invoices out to being a professional shop. Best investment! Would recommend it to all. Don't think, just do it. You won't look back.
