Great tool for repair shops to build trust with new and old customers as they know you are looking out for their best interests

Pros

The ability to capture repair item in question, show customer, create quote and customer info and forward to mainframe

Cons

Learning curve like anything new, in field service personnel vs. phone/TEAMS training, Prefer hands on training the best.

Waste of money!

Pros

Their absolutely no pros to this software. I was told it would be integrated within a few days. Over a month later still have not got to use the program. After multiple calls to customer support they still could not get it to work! I decided to cancel the program but wait theirs more. Come to find out you only have 30 days to cancel and since my integration took longer than 30 days they didn't cancel it. Mind you on the phone I was told it would be taken care of. This is a scam. They take more than 30 days on purpose just to get people stuck in a contract. Save yourself alot of time and money. DO NOT BUY THIS !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Cons

They need to stop ripping people off! Dont be fooled!

Pros

The ability to share the information with our clients. The ability to send images and video files. They are continually inproving the software. They just added a texting feature.

Cons

Just like most software it has some glitches from time to time. The learning process is a bit tough as it does add time to your inspections. But with practice it gets better.

Pros

The layout of services viewed by the customer is very user friendly. Wish AutoServe could come out with a work flow like AutoVitals currently has. Additionally, I would like more customer data and when viewing our data we can't print out without making font super small.

Cons

one way integration/not compatible with RO Writer, slow uptake of pictures making inspections timely.

Client confidence. In the midst of their busy day, they can quickly view the digital inspection and see for themselves what is wrong and why. This makes our job a lot easier when we call to explain and gain authorization.

Pros

ease of use. Was very easy to explain the ins and outs to the technicians. Each client was able to interpret our findings and visualize through the picture attachment function to gain comfort with authorizing repairs.

Cons

The server issues hope for more consistent use in the future. It seems like we have had a rash of this in the last week. I would also like to be able to select finish inspection from the advisor computer when we make changes. Lastly, is there a setting to change the timeout from 24 hours to stay logged in until logged out?

Pros

Access to inspections and picture for review as well as history inspections. It's not always possible to inspect problems while the car is on the hoist so pictures are great.

Cons

Having to switch from service advisor to technician and back. Mostly when trying to open an inspection and then finish.

Pros

The top pros are the integration with Protractor and the consistency of the vehicle inspections by the technicians. Also the ease of use, the ability to attach photos and video and the report the customer receives.

Cons

Would like to be able to change the message the customer gets when the report is texted and would like to be able to copy individual items from the inspections when building a new inspection.
