Kukui helped me establish myself as my own brand and as a partner with Napa.

New brand that is all my own and a wonderful customer retention tool that was more personalized and informative to my clients.

PROS

I loved the ease of the dashboard info to know where I was in a glance. If I needed deeper information, it was always very easy to navigate through the siet and retrieve. I LOVE my web site and logo!

CONS

Only had a once per month call with my marketing contact and it felt random and not on a regular schedule. I wish it was more often and on a set date every month or two weeks. Although the calls were very informative.

Vendor Response

Thanks Kathleen. We have really enjoyed working with you and your team getting your new site out there. I also appreciate your feedback about your monthly meetings. It is important to us that things are more predictable as well.

Excellent for small business' to know where their numbers are at all times!

Higher average repeat buisness and a higher customer count

PROS

We like the ability to track our phone calls, reviews, and our lead to customer conversion rate. This allows us to solve problems within our business that we didn't know were even there. Our guest's are happier with constant contact and our staff has a gauge to constantly stay on track and tools o understand why their numbers are low and where they can improve.

CONS

The follow up module is an awesome tool when it decides to work right. We haven't been able to maximize it's full potential due to software issues but we hope that it will get worked out soon!

Love the dashboard. Support and account managers are terrible

PROS

The Dash board has a lot of great information and tracks information that is useful. Call recording makes it easy to find out if managers are doing and answering calls as trained Email marketing is great to have service reminders, thank you's, and recommended services go out.

CONS

The support from account managers. The customer service is not what it used to be when we first started with Kukui. Account managers should have the basics down to know where the locations are, what they perform and how to generate more business for the customer. Adwords should be related to the business and what drives customers to search for them. Should not be paying for "Arizona emissions repair specialized in OBD1". We have been through 3 account managers in 2 years, and each time it takes 2 months for the next to familiarize themselves with the locations. I pay for a service to be done by professionals, because I am am not in this field. But I expect more than what I am getting.

Kukui is an invaluable partner in business.

My overall experience is second to none. I don't know of any other platforms that allows you to see your business from so many angles. Financial, marketing, customer demographics...it's all there. A huge plus is the monthly meetings with our account rep. [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN].

PROS

The dashboard shows so much information about our business on one screen. It is truly one of the best tools we have.

CONS

Ye, sales stats by service advisor including unsold work. Also, stats for sales opportunity should be available at a glance.

Kukui's platform is a great way to monitor your business

We have benefited from lead tracking and matching to allow us to see which advertising dollars are working for our business.

PROS

The thing I like most about the software is the lead matching and call tracking. It makes it easy to see what advertising dollars are and aren't working. I also like how the control panel allows easy access to important business metrics in an easy to understand fashion.

CONS

I would like to see more work put into reviews. Reviews captured on the website are OK, but not near as beneficial as reviews captured on sites like Yelp and Google. This may be something that needs work on our end and we will be working on this in the near future.

Best in class for helping independent auto repair shops manage their KPI's and online presence.

new and better clients

PROS

The online appointment system is big with our mobile client base. Our clients can make appointments at their convenience, and we can answer them without a phone call. This helps maximize our Service Adviser time and keeps an electronic paper trail.

CONS

I would like to see a greater interaction with Google, Yelp and other review based sites. The reviews we receive from the website are great, but they do not influence new clients like Google or Yelp.

The all in one pricing makes their services complete for clients, no EXTRA fees!

Better tracking of customer data. regular sessions with our rep keeps us on top of our information.

PROS

The software keeps our web presence maximised and the customer service allows us to understand the process.

CONS

The exchange rate for Canadian clients hurts. Perhaps opening a Canadian office would make your product much more attractive to potential Canadian clients. This is the only "con".

Kukui provides so much more than a website. The entire platform is amazing.

It is an integral tool in assessing our customer base, phone calls, leads, ROI, web-site, coupons, communication..... This web-site and platform does almost everything.

PROS

The dashboard is a tangible tool to help me maintain my customer base, improve performance, measure profitability.

CONS

I would like to be able to text updates to individual customers while their car is being serviced or repaired.

Kukui is not only easy to use, it provides a huge array of features!

it is easy to keep in touch with our customer base, send out specials, see the day to day of our business and run our website.

PROS

Kukui makes it so easy to access all the information for your business all in one place. They help manage customer accounts, used cars, our website, and the cost is right for our company.

CONS

The only thing i have an issue with is sometimes my pictures for the used cars don't load through all the way, but this is resolved with a email to my rep or to tech support.

PROS

I like the scheduling functions and the ability to listen to recordings. It helps to manage my staff and customers. The ability to track all of the data and run reports is useful, as well.

CONS

Still hoping I made the right choice.

Phone call monitoring, dashboard and coupon changing. postcard campaigns are nice.

PROS

Phone call recording. Quick access to changing things like coupons on my website. The dashboard can be helpful to check thing like car count and average ticket.

CONS

The only phone calls that get recorded are their tracking numbers calls. So if you need to review a call you can only do it they call one of the numbers Kukui puts out. I needed it from a call that was on a original line and it was very disappointing.
