### Most mentioned pros

- The integration of parts tech makes it extremely easy to estimate and invoice parts along with labor brought into the invoice from simple explantations, plus adding vehicles into the system just by using the license plates, my customers love the portal to be able to view there invoices and pay them prior to coming to get there vehicles
- They speed up writing estimates, repair descriptions, and customer communication to the point where it honestly feels faster and more efficient than some of the larger legacy systems like Mitchell or ProDemand for day to day workflow management.
- Car Information: The VIN decoding and vehicle database are highly accurate, ensuring you have the right mechanical specs and service history before starting a job.

### Most mentioned cons

- Inventory management in keeping records of what you order, how the inventory gets into the system and creating duplicate parts in inventory where one should be able to trace back to the work order/invoice is not available.

- Reviewed: April 2026

I've been using it on and off since it was created. I love it. The updates keep it competitive at an extremely attractive price point

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

More features. More intuitive. The earliest version was rudimentary but effective. Now I almost feel as if I'm using a full business suite

#### Cons

Needs more service affiliates. Would like to see ALLDATA and maybe Identifix partnerships. Also a more refined labor guide. For free I understand the hassle of MOTOR though

#### Reasons for switching to ARI

I'm extremely satisfied with ARI during the period that I have been using it and I plan on continuing to use it in the future. I look forward to the future updates!

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

What I like the most about ARI is the amount of features if offers for the price point, I like the integrations that ARI offers, it makes everything much easier and I don't have to navigate to multiple software which is a huge plus. Another aspect that stood out to me is the customer support, the response time is extremely quick and very open to feedback, they have been really helpful and the response time makes work so much smoother and quicker. I also love the fact that ARI offers a client portal and customer relationship management features. Overall I'm very impressed with the quality and service that ARI provides.

#### Cons

Some things that I would like to note are the limited invoice template options (enabling qr code for custom invoices, editing certain fields, like moving phone number below email for the default template, etc.) The license plate decoder is also buggy at times when pulling vehicle information.

#### Reasons for choosing ARI

Similarity in features and the price point.

#### Reasons for switching to ARI

Affordability as well as the similarity in features.

### It’s OK but it could be better… a lot better

All in all it works OK feels just a little clunky and is not customizable enough. Everything functions pretty well for the most part that I have been experiencing more and more glitches as I use it and the ability to customize particular functions of the customer facing applications is Paramount for the business that I’m building, but I can’t seem to use the features and functions I would like without hitting walls and red tape.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 2/5
- Value for money: 3/5
- Customer support: 2/5
- Functionality: 3/5

#### Pros

The client portal is pretty nice and accessibility across multiple devices is great. The interface and UI is OK for now.

#### Cons

Customization of the client portal needs to be more granular. Meaning I need to have all control over how long the appointment windows are for the customer and personally I would like more granular web hooks for individual features to add onto my personal webpage

#### Reasons for switching to ARI

They were far too expensive and had 1 million features that most shops never even look into because they’re unnecessary

### Competes with other shop management software for a fraction of the price.

Overall, I have been very impressed with ARI. They are on par with the more expensive guys for a fraction of the price. They are always making improvements.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 4/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 4/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

ARI has been a great investment for my business. As a startup, I needed shop management software to keep my on track, but couldn't afford $300 per month or more that other companies charge. I settled on ARI and am so happy I did. For a fraction of the price, I can track customers, vehicles, payments, and workflows. ARI has inspection sheets, The best AI labor guide I have used, reports to show me what my business is doing, and sends my customers service reminders. ARI also integrates with Square, QuickBooks, Mitchell 1, and Parts Tech. I love the parts tech integration because I can order parts right from my estimates. They are also quick to respond to customer support.

#### Cons

ARI offers A LOT for the money, and as a result, there is some stuff I don't use. A good example is the Invoice status menu. ARI offers 11 different statuses for invoices but I only use four or five. I wish these features were customizable.

#### Reasons for choosing ARI

I chose ARI for the price, but am glad I did. ARI has been an affordable, yet robust solution for my shop needs.

#### Ratings breakdown

#### Pros

It's an all in one product with great support when you need it. It's just great, period. Easy to navigate.

Overall I am happy with it and is easy to use. I wish there was a more robust accounting system, but for $50 per month that’s great.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 4/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 3/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

The integrated labor guides page is quick and easy, but best thing is that when an item is not available, the request labor guide section at the bottom is quite accurate at pulling up correct procedures and labor times for the customer.

#### Cons

The outside purchased parts added doesn’t have a feature that makes you receive the part before invoicing. So if a part is ordered for an invoice and it has not been added to accounting or lost, the invoice can still be processed leaving a discrepancy.

#### Reasons for choosing ARI

It was less expensive and was geared toward a small business with low employees

#### Pros

The invoices are very professional and customizable. I like all of the options it has, it’s pretty much all I need for my small business.

I wish it had more features like canned jobs and that it would ask which part up you want for parts when adding them. Automatically instead of having to select each item if you don’t want to use your matrix.

#### Reasons for choosing ARI

Price is the main reason. This program seems to do most of the same stuff.

Takes a bit of time to go through and learn each individual element of each area of the program - not so much streamlined as others seemed in some aspects almost like a dated software

#### Reasons for choosing ARI

#### Ratings breakdown

#### Pros

It’s an all in one app, I can have my inventory, invoices, reports, and the added labor guides is a huge bonus, and LOVE the live links for customers so I don’t have to send them multiple times if they want to change something, love have I can enter the vin and the vehicle information come up. Customer support is great and fast when I have issues. And love how I can order parts from it and have them put into the invoice automatically.

#### Cons

Starting to take longer to load app since last update, but they usually fix things fast. Would be nice to intergrade Vinmo or Cash App. Lots of customers ask if I have that.

#### Vendor response

FYI, You can already use both Venmo and CashApp with ARI. For Venmo, just make sure you connect your paypal account to ARI in settings and Venmo will show up automatically as a payment method. ForCashApp make sure you use Square and that cashapp is activated on your Square account!

ITS A GREAT SYSYTEM. WE HAVE JUST STARTED USING IT AND MOST OF THE TABS ARE EASY TO USE AND NAVIGATE

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

THE EASE OF USING THE SYSYTEM AND ENTERING CARS AND CUSTOMERS IN THE SYSTEM. ITS VERY SIMPLE AND ONCE YOU LEARN THE ARI TABS ITS GREAT

#### Cons

FINDING HOW TO BE ABLE TO DELETE AN ORDER FOR PARTS. CANCELING THE PARTS AND TAKING OUT OF THE SYSYTEM IS ODD
