We weren't happy with the range of reports or professionalism of the looks of the reports. They looked like 1980's layouts and fonts. Our previous software was not as comprehensive as Lot Wizard Pro.

Needs a little work

Overall it’s okay for the money. Not impressed by any means but it works, albeit slowly.

PROS

What I liked most about this product was the low price.

CONS

I hate that the forms can’t easily be printed out on plain paper. Specifically LAW contracts. Also the software crashes constantly.

Vendor Response

Nicholas, I'm sorry to hear about your difficulties with Lot Wizard. We've located the problem with your speed (and crashing) issues, and will have it resolved by tomorrow morning. Also, LAW Contracts will be available soon. If you continue to experience technical problems with Lot Wizard, please call us 1-800-677-7160.

Used Vehicle Dealer using Lot Wizard Pro

I'm not using it to its full potential yet, but so far it works for my car lot.

PROS

When I call for anything there is only on prompt to press ( press 1 for this, 2 for that...). Almost and immediate answer most of the time after pressing a prompt. If I get the wrong prompt, the person who answers can usually handle the issue.

CONS

Not compatible with a northern state like Wisconsin. It gets cold here. When checking boxes for vehicle options (power windows, remote start, etc.), there is nothing to check for heated seats. There is also nothing to check for rear heated seats (yes, I have a car on the lot now with both front and rear heated seat). Having more option boxes to check would be helpful. Also, there are vehicles that have cold weather packages, which usually means you can plug it in to keep the battery warm. I brought it to their attention awhile ago, and still nothing to click on with heated seats to pre-populate that with my online feeds.

Vendor Response

Thank you for the feedback, Greg. You can easily customize your options list under the maintenance menu. I'll send you a short video to reference. If you're still having trouble with it after watching the video, give us a call. We can remote into your computer and take care of it for you.

Great software for the automotive industry

PROS

I enjoy using Lot Wizard. It is very easy to navigate through and the availability of forms is helpful. I use Lot Wizard to structure all of my car deals and to maintain new and existing inventory. It is easy to find old deals, update vehicle or customer information, etc. The customer service team is easily accessible and has assisted me with any system glitches as well as customizing my Lot Wizard to work most efficiently for me.

CONS

I do not have any complaints. It would be convenient to be able to search a deal by stock number but that not really a problem since I can search by the year and model or the customer's name.

Vendor Response

Thank you for your kinds words, Robin. I'll pass your recommendation on to the programmers.
