### Not a great start with staff leaving during our setup & first few weeks & ongoing.

It helps us operate more efficiently, with invoicing etc & the email/sms features are great.

#### Ratings breakdown

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

#### Pros

Very user friendly for invoicing & general workshop management & Staff have always been friendly.

#### Cons

MYOB integration - has some issues (mainly balancing with w/shop). Cust credits go to Trade creditors & we have to do journals? Support calls on this have been unanswered on occassion. Reporting could be more specific, some don't have dates on them & we would like outstanding cust /suppliers balances with 30/60/90 days etc, we were unable to workout our top 20 customers etc for marketing purposes etc. Have made a few suggestions in previous support emails, but had no update. Probably need a better setup training system from the start rather than relying on youtube help solely. No Date/range on outstanding customer balances report . When balancing with MYOB I usually need to go back & get the outstanding balances - but i cant in workshop once the new month begins?. Begin & end date on some reports month-date-year? US style (EG; Sales By payment method report) not a big deal but could be consistent across all reports. Would love an Aged Trial Balance for Debtors/creditors 30/60/90 days ). It allows us to see what is owed to us or by us at a glance at any given time. Supplier Balance Report - is it possible to have a date range (easier to check off with each suppliers statements at the end of month) & total balance (to include all credits) for that date range? If credits arent allocated to an invoice, on the various reports (except cust outstanding balances) they dont show up in the overall balances. No report on a make/model of a vehicle.

#### Vendor response

Hi Herb, Thanks for your feedback. Not sure that we could do much about staff leaving ;-). Great to hear that Workshop Software is user friendly. Thanks for the suggestions, I'm sure you can appreciate that we cannot implement every suggestion that we get, and we prioritise what we feel might be best to add to the system. I wish you every success in the future of your business. Thank you James Mitchell CEO Workshop Software

Constant upgrades and improvements. Text and email reminders. Layout excluding gst option Easy to enter information Easy to learn Video showing how to do stuff

#### Cons

#### Vendor response

Hi Stu, Thanks for your feedback. I'd like to get some more specific info on what you mean by NZ appropriate? We've got hundreds of clients in New Zealand and do a number of NZ specific things such as the vehicle lookup. When you say opt-out, you mean your customer not receive communications from you? If so, you can change the setting for a customer to opt-out. I hope Workshop Software continues to provide you great value in the future. All the best. James Mitchell CEO Workshop Software.

### Could be good but too many faults

- Overall rating: 1/5
- Reviewer: Elicia S.
- Product usage: Used daily for less than 12 months
- Reviewed: January 2018

#### Ratings breakdown

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

#### Pros

Easy to use easy to integrate overall idea of software would work. Great that it integrates with xero.

#### Cons

Simple things not working causing us to have to move to another software package. Simple things such as invoices not adding up, mechanic reporting not working, clocked times not correct forcing us to manually check these things.

#### Vendor response

Hi Elicia Thanks for your feedback, it really does help us to improve and grow. Great that you found it easy to use and excellent value for money. In terms of the invoice not adding up, not sure what you are referring to there as there has never been a known issue. A look through your support log and I could not find any reference either. As for the mechanic clocking, I think that you wanted the phone app to select an individual line, which is something we are currently working on and should be released soon. Understand that this does not help you right now, and to be fair we should have updated this earlier than now (reason is that we just had higher development priorities with all the great updates we've been doing). I wish you every success and if there is anything I can do to help, please let me know. Thanks James Mitchell CEO Workshop Software

### Workshop Software is a great progam, it does most of what we need it to do.

Was easier for my staff to use than Xero

#### Ratings breakdown

#### Pros

Search Functionaility is good. Calender/diary is good Dashboard is good

#### Cons

Needs more inventory control - ie negative stock report Needs to be cheaper to ad extra users - ie we have two counter terminals the second one gets used every now and then so is not worth paying for another user. Should be able to support up to four users on one subscription.

#### Vendor response

Hi Lindsay, Thank you for your feedback. Great to hear that Workshop Software is a great program for your business. In terms of the price, at $49 per month, I'm sure you'll agree that Workshop Software is by far the best value for money application on the market. We want to be sure that we keep the initial price as low as possible, and to pay a small monthly fee for an additional user, we believe is fair. Appreciate your support and I hope Workshop Software continues to provide great value for your business. James Mitchell CEO Workshop Software

- Reviewed: February 2018
- Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.

I must admit I have really seen too many benefits as we have to keep paying for all the extras and realistically that I won't do, it should all be included in one price instead of dangling a carrot and then having to pay more to get it.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 3/5

#### Pros

The fact that you can log on anywhere, Not sure why it tell me that I haven't entered enough characters as really I don't have much more to say

#### Cons

Its reporting capabilities are very basic and does not meet a businesses needs. Also that it only extracts in PDF not excel. Also that you have to pay for every user, that is so wrong, once you buy a licence you should be able to add a few users I am quite tired of the information not uploading properly, if our internet is slow which it very often is we have terrible problems with data entered not actually saving

### New to Workshop Software

#### Ratings breakdown

#### Pros

Implementation was seamless and support was very helpful. The system is very easy to use and navigate around. Creating invoices in easy with the help of bundles and invoice templates. Job cards can be created from templates for the workshop guys to use. Enter supplier invoices is easy and then assigning them to a customers invoices makes for less data entry. Processing supplier invoices payments and reconciling Capricorn’s statement is uncomplicated and makes for an efficient way to process end of month.

#### Cons

Workshop to Xero intergration doesn’t allow for deposits made to invoices in workshop software to come through to Xero until the invoice is processed, making it unusable if the invoice isn’t finalised in that same month. A little more direction with the intergration with zero would have been helpful, as some things that we were advised to do haven’t worked. Customisable invoices would be helpful as the standards one is the system aren’t always suitable

I have been using Workshop Software in my tyre and mechanical business for over six months now and I couldn't be happier. In terms of value for money Workshop Software is awesome. I had a look at some other options and they were expensive and also way too in-depth. The best thing about Workshop Software is it is super intuitive.

#### Ratings breakdown

The search facility within this program is absolutely fantastic. I can find customers, stock items or anything else just by typing in to the search bar.

#### Cons

The most annoying thing for me would have to be that I can't just go back to the previous section terribly easily. E.G. create a customer then add one machine then have to go back to customer to add another machine. Just a little bit cumbersome.

#### Vendor response

Hello Catherine, Thank you very much for your feedback, really appreciate it. In reference to adding machines to customers, the easiest way to do that is in a Job/Invoice by clicking the Plus in the Vehicles section. This should be very quick and easy, and you can add multiple if you need (if that does not make complete sense, please contact the support team). I look forward to seeing your ongoing success in your business. Best Regards, James Mitchell CEO Workshop Software

This compared to our previous software is a dream.

#### Pros

It has been easy to navigate. We used our old system for many years and it was completely different. But the switch, with the help of customer support, was quite smooth

#### Cons

Once invoice processed it can't be changed We would like to be able to go through a list of invoices and print a list of invoices numerically

#### Vendor response

Hello Leonie, Thank you for your feedback, very much appreciated. Glad you find it easy to use and I know the support team love to know that they are doing a great job. Thanks again James Mitchell CEO Workshop Software

#### Pros

The marketing was attractive.

#### Cons

Way to complicated. All screens look the same. Lack of support. When asked for help I was told no one else has an issue..

#### Vendor response

Hi Steve, I've checked the support log and cannot find anything logged for your name, email or company. Can you please email me directly the communications that you have had with our office. Are you sending support requests to support@workshopsoftware.com? There is obviously a breakdown in communication and I'd like to get to the bottom of it, as we normally get rave reviews about how good the support is. (see other reviews here on Capterra). I hope we can find out what's going on and move forward. Thank you James Mitchell CEO Workshop Software
