AutoVitals

We love the inspection and how customizable it is. Setting up the inspection for how you run your shop is possible to do with this product. It allows us to get a huge amount of information to the customer in a short period of time allowing the customer to be aware of what needs to be done.

I think the CRM function can cause issues. I would like to see a mandatory review function added so that the service advisor has to acknowledge all CRM before the ticket is closed out.

Our customers love to see pictures of their car and what are findings are after an inspection. They can see where the hole is in the exhaust, they can see where the leak is coming from in the transmission lines. These features give confidence to the customer as well as the service adviser explaining what has been found and what needs to be repaired or replaced. our customers can see through pictures that there has been a thorough inspection done on their car. AutoVitals also notifies customers when their next service should be, and this is a valuable communication betwwen shop and customer.

We have had no problems with using AutoVitals. We use two screens, one with our shop management system running and the 2nd primarily for AutoVitals. There is a message system between techs and service staff that is very efficient. Then there is a message system going out to the customer via text, email or both that communicates with the customer just what is going on with their vehicle

How much information is easily able to be gotten from one screen. Workflow management in general. The ability to work with the POS Tech Work Order as well as the DVI.

Overall it is good, just feel that there needs to be some options to make or have the customer communication customizable or at least draw from a "library" to make the communication more personal and not so "Robotic" - A customer with two or three cars coming in on the same day gets the same "robotic" thank you text for each vehicle. Mainly when dealing with the automated side.
