Review Source GP Gary P. Owner Automotive Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Use of software " March 2, 2023 5.0 Pros Ease of use, great support if needed, inventory management is very good and invoicing is a dream Cons There are many options that I do not use Reason for choosing MaxxTraxx Was told by another shop how much that liked it Review Source HM Hank M. owner Automotive Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Good over all but lacking improvement over time." May 31, 2017 3.0 Growing our business. But we were told going in that MaxxTraxx would be growing with us and we have not seen that on the soft wear side. Pros We can add our our parts in that we build in house much easier than other programs. Data moved over from our old system well. Cons Old school type menus, but the biggest thing is we can not stretch out big jobs over more than one day on the schedule. Review Source LD Lori D. Business Manager Automotive Used the software for: 2+ years ### "I love the software, but it's complicated." August 3, 2020 5.0 The customer support is absolutely the best in any industry. I don't want to run them out of a job because they are all such great people, but it would be helpful to have a manual for how to do things... I never find what I need on line because the training videos are too basic. I have been compiling my own manual, but new things come up all the time and I have to call in quite often. The software is so complicated that there are so many features I am just now discovering. This is a good thing, usually, except that it is just not intuitive and it is clear that it is an older software that is being patched together with newer features. This is not a problem for me, as I am used to it, but I would say that if Bolton didn't exist, I would have started to look at other options for more robust digital inspections, click to pay, the workflow screen, the ability to easily email customers their bill and the ability to go paperless with real time integrated tablets. Pros The amount of features and the accounting package. Cons I wouldn't be able to pay more for the software because I have to use Bolton to fill in the gaps where the software is lacking. With Bolton, it is about the same price or higher than some of these new softwares that have more features. I might not miss the little details that I think I like with this software if I can get the Bolton features elsewhere. Reason for choosing MaxxTraxx We have had Maxxtraxx from when it was DOS based. We would hate to switch, but new softwares have a lot of convenience features that are becoming expected. I wish you guys did what Bolt on does. If you do try to create those features and they are inferior, it will be very disappointing though... I am very happy with Maxxtraxx at the current price and with Bolton as a suppliment.

Pros Easy to use , The program runs my totals and keeps our techs organized . The monthly reports are helpful. Cons The inventory and pricing are so up and down. Review Source Response from Scott Systems March 7, 2023 Hi Jennifer, thank you for the nice review. However, we are concerned about your inventory issues. Please contact our Support team and they can try and determine what might be the issue. Inventory control is always difficult, but MaxxTraxx has a very detailed inventory control and pricing system. If there are problems on your system, we want to find them and fix them, whether it is a bug or maybe just a lack of our training you well enough. DM Dominic M.

Pros The Corporate version, which we use, has integrated Accounting and Payroll, and reports are extensive. MaxxTraxx accounting system is a TRUE double-entry accounting system, and many of its features are even easier to use than Quickbooks. Cons Unable to "delete" vendor invoices once they are created.

Owner Machinery Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Review" August 8, 2020 4.0 Overall experience not bad but the biggest issue I am have with MaxxTraxx we have had several inssue from the start of using the software and these issues are very important to use and we have spoke with MaxxTraxx several times and told would be fix and it has been over 2 year and nothong has been done about it and at the currently time it is getting real old being told it will be look at and repair and never happens so at this current time we are starting to look into other software because we beleave it will never get repair and it seems like they just tell you what you want to here to get you off the phone.... Pros easy to use, Tech support very good you can run credit cards threw the system. Cons Tracking PM's threw the software and scheduling system does not work corectly needs alot of help, the customer option has so little option driver option has just about no option not sure ehy they even have it in the system nost important thing for a driver there teliphone number and does have have a place for the driver number the report could use some help the digaital report option needs help Reason for choosing MaxxTraxx It looked like a good software for what you pay Review Source sM shain M.

" March 1, 2023 5.0 I love this software and the customer service. They are very helpful and always very very friendly on the phone. I've used multiple different systems and this is the best bang for the buck. Pros I like everything about this software. Once you get it all set up and tailored to your needs, it's awesome. Being a 1 man shop I don't have much time to make estimates, invoices, etc. Once I got all the KIT's entered in the computer I can make an estimate/invoice in a couple minutes. I also love the price. This is a great system and it doesn't break the bank every month. Cons Honestly, I can't really think of anything I don't like about the system. Review Source RW Randy W. Owner/Manager Automotive Used the software for: 2+ years ### "MaxxTraxx Is The Automotive Shop Software With The Most Bang For The Buck" July 29, 2020 5.0 I Am Very Happy With My Decision To Team With Scott Systems and The MaxxTraxx Software. This Software Has Been Rock Solid. When There Was Something I Didn't Understand Or Needed Help With (Or Something I Messed Up) The Support Staff Have Always Been There To Get Me Back On Track Usually In Less Than A Minute. Best Money We Have Ever Spent In Our 35 years Of Being In Business. Pros From Inventory Control To The Ease Of Creating Service Repair Orders, Parts Counter Invoices And Marketing To And Communicating With Customers Through Email, Text And Through The Postal Service MaxxTraxx Has Been A Huge Part Of The Success Of Our Business. Their Support Team Is The Best Of Any Software Company I Have Ever Used. There Truly Isn't One Thing I Can Single Out As What I Like Most. Every Facet Of This Software And The Company That Stands Behind It Is A Package That Works. Cons I Have Been A Customer For Over 20 Years And There Has NEVER Been A Single Negative Issue With The Software Or The Company That Stands Behind It.

Une fois adapté, l'outil devient très pratique. Pros MaxxTraxx est très simple d'utilisation et a la flexibilité de pouvoir tout regrouper au même endroit. La gestion des clients est fluide ce qui me fait gagner beaucoup de temps. Cons J'aime moins l'ergonomie et la personnalisation. Certains écrans paraissent un peu vieux et certaines options sont difficiles à retrouver dans les menus. Review Source CK Craig K. Owner Automotive Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great group of people" August 4, 2020 5.0 Pros I have used Scott Systems, Maxx Traxx since it was a DOS version. I have grown with the company getting new features and ordering parts online. They have always listened to my input for new advances. If there is a problem they are right on top of it in a hurry. I could not think of a better software to use for our company. Cons I guess I don't have any cons. They are cutting edge. Review Source AB Amanda B. Office Manager Used the software for: ### "If we could do it all over again, we wouldn't change a thing!" July 9, 2012 5.0 Something else we love? The fact that it's 'Made in the USA'. It means the world to use that we are supporting an American business, and that when we call (or chat or email) for support, we speak with one of their team members that we have developed a relationship with, as opposed to a call center overseas who asks for our customer number each time our call is transferred. Pros We have been faithful subscribers of Scott Systems for over a decade, having initially converted to their software during the Y2K scare. We've received calls from several other potential software vendors courting our business, but never has one been able to match the features that Scott Systems provides for the price. We love their support and training resources. They enabled our transition to the the upgraded software version to be near seamless, and we also believe they will be a great orientation for new-hires. We use the full accounting features, and it saves us the hassle of having to import/export and/or double entry of data. Further, the integrated Credit Card processing was SO simple to setup, and makes life a breeze- no separate terminal with tacky thermal paper rolls; the C/C confirmation prints directly on our invoices, which looks high-end. Cons Can't think of any cons, but I'm sure that if we do they'll add it to their list of feature requests and implement changes promptly! Review Source SL Scott L. Owner Automotive Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Can't say enough good things about this software!!! Awesome! Price reasonable. Great people!" June 23, 2017 5.0 Ease of use. Very functional. Cost effective. Dynamite support. Pros Cost vs. Benefit is off the charts. Unbelievably easy to learn and use. We were referred by another shop and have had the same experience - perfect! From scheduling to billing it's easy and fast. Cons As others have noted, you can't have an appointment/job stretch over more than one day. that leads to a lot of duplicate appointments to block off time. Review Source SD Sharon D. Office Manager Automotive Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great Customer Service/Tech Help" August 3, 2016 5.0 Such great software, been using Scott System MaxxTraxx Pro for at least 15 years.
