After reviewing many body shop management systems in the market place, Roger Pearce (Administration Director) from Joseph Cowlin says: ‘Auto Soft was our number one choice of system for many reasons. There are many body shop management systems on the market and all have good features. Some have many more features than we needed and their cost reflected this. Auto Soft is the only system to supply all the best features in one very user friendly system. The ease of use appealed to me because, although the training was thorough, it did not take up too much time or disrupt the day to day running of the business. Also the gradual familiarisation with the system was quite easy after the training. When researching other systems, I found that there were many hidden costs which were not talked about by the management system vendors. Auto Soft was the only system I found to present clearly the total cost of the system with no hidden charges. It was imperative that our business could find a cost effective system which allowed us to add value to our business. With its live loss warnings, electronic T-Cards, Time Management System and help in increasing estimator performance Auto Soft provided our business with the tools we were looking for to improve our efficiencies and profitability. The free upgrades provided by Auto Soft allow our company to have the most innovative features as they are added to the Auto Soft. We also have a say in what improvements could be made in future upgrades. I really like the new instant support feature on Yahoo Messenger where Auto Soft dial in whilst we talk to the support team and resolve any issues as they arise. Finally, I would say that customer support after the sale has been very good. It was a great relief to me know that we had someone to help us in a friendly and easy going manner.’

Lee Mier (Bodyshop Manager) says the following about Auto Soft: ‘Before having Auto Soft we had a long and laborious process of manually managing our fast growing business. It was an extremely stressful environment and we couldn’t concentrate our time on key issues in the business as administration took all our time. Now having Auto Soft to provide us the right tools to manage our business, within seconds customer enquiries can be quickly and easily answered by using the clearly laid out Auto Soft screens to find the information required. Without wasting time on the workshop floor I can track the progress of any vehicle and observe its flow though all processes on screen. The concise reports available as standard have given me excellent tools to analyse my business, allowing me to increase both productivity and profitability. After the initial training from the Auto Soft support team I found it not only easy to use myself but more importantly I found I could easily train additional staff. The initial investment made was quickly recuperated by the savings and opportunities the system highlighted.'

Nigel Hyatt (Owner) chose Autosoft body shop management system for many reasons as he explains below. 'Auto Soft was our number one system of choice for many reasons. After reviewing many systems in the market place, Auto Soft is the only system we found which incorporated all great features in one very user friendly system. The simplicity and ease with which a body shop can be managed from time management,workshop control to estimating and accounting is what we were looking for from a management system. Auto Soft delivers this and is key requirement I believe to all body shops which want to stay at the top of their business.'

Gill Clarke (Accountant) says the following about Auto Soft : 'After initial contact from Auto Soft, we were offered the opportunity to visit another body shop who used the Autosoft system and were given an unbiased demonstration by them. We were impressed by the ease of use, high specification and competitive pricing. Auto Soft has proved to be a great asset to our business and we would have no hesitation in recommending this system.'

Debbie Williams (Owner) says ' We chose Auto Soft because of the excellent references it received from existing customers. All of your customers commented on how it had organised and reduced their workload. We already used a manual T-card system and so were interested in seeing how the computerised system worked. From the systems on the market we felt Auto Soft offered our business what we required.'
