Top Automotive Digital Shop Program
Customer service is fantastic. Especially when it comes time to needing help or information on how to do something. Also they continue to try to get a hold of for the monthly catch ups even when you are so busy you sometimes ignore their calls or emails. They do not give up. Kind of like holding you accountable.
PROSHighly recommend AutoVitals! Being able to follow the process of the vehicle from drop off to pick up is so important. This system does it all. I love the training videos and the one on one contact when there are any questions or concerns. The best DVI in our minds. This program sells your service just with the pictures alone. You have to apply their services to get the most from it. There is a lot they offer and it is so nice having all our social, texting service, DVI and more under one roof.
CONSThere is a so much they offer in the shop program it takes a while to apply it all. We still don't use all of it and we should for sure but still learning.
Reason for choosing AutoVitals
Best DVI program and everything is all under one roof for us now.
Reasons for switching to AutoVitals
Because I wanted everything under one roof and they had the BEST DVI so when I found our they offered more I looked into it and decided it was time to change everything to AutoVitals.
Vendor Response
Thank you Sharon for the review! We are thrilled that you found the right solution for your shop and we are looking forward to continuing to provide you with excellent service.

The people at Autovitals have been fantastic to work with. When we had questions or needed help, it was an easy process and quickly resolved.
PROSClients love the digital inspections, communication and it gives them a better understanding of their repairs.
CONSIs there a downside? Maybe the amount of information when onboarding??

AutoVitals has absolutely revolutionized my business!
Our customers absolutely love our digital inspections! Our ARO HAS GONE FROM ABOUT $380 to $700+ in the last three years. It makes selling so much easier.

Our customers love AutoVitals
Our experience using AutoVital has been 100% positive. Our customer's love it, and we are getting more sales from the pictures and videos. The more pictures taken the more successful this software is. Customers will take their time in reading and looking at the inspection, this gives them time to understand what is needed now and into the future. Their decision making is easier.
PROSOur 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.
CONSWe 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

A picture is worth a thousand words
The support staff is the best,
PROSAutovitals digital inspections has helped take our shop to the next level. In the beginning it was a lot to learn and implement, but as time went on and with the support of autovitals our whole team has transitioned perfectly. My son invested the time in the beginning, attended a few onsite training sessions to get everything set up and train our technicians. When I took over, Autovitals was there with more training and support. Thanks to 1-hour weekly meetings with [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] from Autovitals, his time spent helping me to use and understand this software has been priceless. [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] has taught me how to look at all the data and use it properly. My inspection rates, technician efficiencies, & jobs sold have went up significantly. Pictures sell the job, You can explain over the phone to the customer about how worn the brakes are or how dirty the cabin filter is. The differance when you send your customer a digital inspection report with pictures and explanations of work needed, it becomes much easier to sell the work presented to the customer. Most of the time the pictures will do the work for you. When you talk to the customer after they have reviewed the inspection report, the customer gives the authorization to repair their vehicle. The customer now has a better understanding of the repairs needed due to the detailed inspection report with pictures. Autovitals is a must have software for any Automotive repair facility wanting to perform digital inspections
CONSThe intigration to our shop software went smooth, they had to work out a few bugs in the beginning. We could not be happier.

Best D.V.I. on the Market!
AutoVitals stands head and shoulders above the rest as the pinnacle of cutting-edge, user-friendly digital vehicle inspection programs available today. Its intuitive interface empowers technicians to effortlessly communicate any vehicle issues to customers. Moreover, their customer service is unparalleled, with [sensitive content hidden] consistently delivering rapid and helpful responses to inquiries. Without hesitation, I wholeheartedly endorse AutoVitals to anyone seeking to enhance or revamp their digital vehicle inspection process.

Highly Recommend
I love this program. Isabel is so helpful with everything that we need. She always answers all of my questions and helps me with anything that I need. She is definitely one of my favorite parts of the program. Other than that, it is very user friendly. It is easy to edit the inspections if needed and even easier to send it to the customer. The text message feature is great and makes it easy to communicate with our customers.
PROSI love how user friendly this program is. It is formatted well enough that my technician who was still using a flip phone when we started was able to understand and use it. The work practically sells itself when we add pictures and videos for the customer to see. Using a digital inspection helps create trust with our customers and therefore helps us sell more work.
CONSI do not like the way the reminder texts and emails are written. Many of our older customers call us because they are confused on what the reminder is for. The way it is worded is confusing for some people. Changing the wording would go a long way to help our customers understand what the reminder is for without having to call us.
Vendor Response
Thank you, Marissa, for the review and feedback. We appreciate it! The good news is that changing the wording is in our future roadmap. Thanks, again!

Awesome Software to get Your Shop to The Next Level.
Overall after getting systems in place to properly utilize Auto Vitals, it made of substantial growth in my shop. Customers are impressed and comment they feel more comfortable with the information we are providing.
PROSHow 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.
CONSOverall 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.
Reason for choosing AutoVitals
Best fit for my shop, also offered the best bang for the buck.
Reasons for switching to AutoVitals
Paperless shop - full digital operations. Option allowed and to be able to actually do more than just DVI. The ability to document a repair order as well as the inspection. The measurements - you don't know what you don't know.

It Helped Grow Our Business
When we started with them we were doing about $600k in sales. This past year we did just over 2 million. Although much of that growth is the team that we have built and the processes that we have made, but I can tell you for sure that AutoVitals played a large part in that growth and made it possible to apply the processes that we wanted to.
PROSThe original intent of using the software was for digital vehicle inspections (DVI). We had been doing our own Excel spreadsheets for DVI, but it was slower and pictures weren't anywhere near as in depth. Switching to AutoVitals was a no brainers at the time and its helped grow our business. As another gain in utilizing the software, it changed our shop workflow and truly allows us to be a completely paperless shop.
CONSWe started with AutoVitals during its early stages. So, we worked our way through the bugs and/or glitches along the way. Yes, there were frustrating times that the software was not working properly, but I can say that they have worked tirelessly to update the software as needed and those bugs and glitches that periodically come up have been minimized.

Great tool for our shop!
Overall Autovitals has allowed us to be and appear more professional. The detailed history and data we have about vehicles that come through prevent so many problems and allow us to talk with certainty about what was done and or seen when a customer came in. Communication with this product to the customer and internally is top-notch.
PROSWe 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.
CONSI 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.
