Best Photography & Retargetting System!
Spincar has made my customer's shopping experience a truly unique one. The detailed hotspots as well as the 360 view both inside and out of the vehicle gives a true, realistic look at that vehicle and has helped a lot with sales, as the customer sees that we are being completely transparent about the vehicle and showing all of its features. The retargetting is above all else. The amount of data Spincar can collect from my customers and then use to bring them back o the site via multiple channels is amazing. My web traffic, VDP vies and leads are up all thanks to Spincar!
Pros
The amount of time the dealership can save taking photos with the system is astonishing and the retargetting is so in depth that it is vin specific and can even focus on the specific features the custom was interested in and integrate that information into the ad, causing the ads to be extremely effective. The retargetting alone has accounted for over 1/3 of my VDP views on my new & used inventory!
Cons
The only issues I have ever had have been resolved by support team! When I think the app needs an update or change, they do their best to accommodate that. This is the same for the display ads. This company is here for you to succeed.

Problems Solved
Pros
We had constant problems with consistency and quality. SpinCar solved both. In the digital age, customers visit countless websites vs. dealerships. SpinCar allows our customers to shop more thoroughly from home. We utilize their retargeting capabilities as well. The support team is hyper responsive and follows up on issues. Best bang for your buck in the automotive picture world.
Cons
My only request would be the figure out a way to make feature add on's retroactive to the rest of the inventory.

They take your money without permission
Pros
I like the idea/concept and looking for a company that can deliver on this technology, but SpinCar has a long way to go.
Cons
It screwed up my website and wiped out the original high quality photos with professional camera. The process that I would have to adopt to implement this system was very cumbersome. My request for refund of the money they took out BEFORE even going live or any approval of SEM has been ignored and its like they dropped off the face of the earth. I feel like I have been scammed pretty good... whatever you do, don't give them your financial information.

There is nothing that I consider to be a con for this product.

Amazing service!
We were able to cut our monthly operating costs by moving to SpinCar. In addition to the monthly savings, the process of taking pictures to having the pictures on our website went from days to less than 15 minutes. Also, our spins look amazing!
Pros
Very easy to use; frequent updates; unlimited spins/month; excellent equipment; professional results
Cons
I cannot think of a single concern that we have.
Reasons for switching to Impel
We wanted a quicker solution to upload our vehicle pics to our website.

Performs as Advertised
The interface is easy and the customer-facing result is worthwhile.
Pros
SpinCar has proven to be a positive addition to our efforts to improve merchandising, and it did not require a complete overhaul of our day-to-day.
Cons
The few times that we have had issues (feed syncs, for example), their support team has been swift to address it. Perfecting the 360 video is also not an easy feat.

Great Marketing Concept!
Pros
Walk around 360 video increases customer interaction on our webpage. Time on site has increased drastically. Works great on mobile site as well.
Cons
A little time consuming to use and requires you take a lot of Pictures. Requires that you have a rather large area to get the outside pictures of the vehicle. Program is expensive for the small lot.

Good product, poor execution and reporting.
We would've stayed with SpinCar perhaps, if we had been given more info on what drove their numbers and analytics so much higher than what we were seeing on our end. It is a good product, overall. But I also value trustworthiness & transparency in a company.
Pros
I like the ease of setup and integration of this product. It was easy for our photographer to understand, set up, and use to change up some of our systems and processes in inventory intake.
Cons
However, their analytics were inflated, in my opinion. We would look at our site metrics in GA and it would simply not line up with what we were seeing from SpinCar's reporting. That seemed very shady to us.

SpinCar is a great idea for marketing
Overall its has been a great system to use. Easy learning curve.
Pros
SPinCar makes it easy to market you vehicles more effectively. Its a different look and way to show what you have available. It is also super easy to use
Cons
No real cons. Once you are up and running its very easy to do. The hardest thing is to find where to take pictures.

Very easy to use and looks great on our website
Pros
This makes your vehicles look very nice on your website. The "hotspot" features and the full view around the vehicle is great for when customers are looking online at the photos/videos of the vehicle. It is very quick and easy to do the photos and upload. The interior shot is nice where customers can look around the whole inside of the vehicle and drag their cursor around for a full interior view.
Cons
The cost seems pretty high but of course, you get what you pay for and this is a very nice product. I just wish it would be more affordable.

Great way to market cars
Pros
It's a good way to market and differentiate your inventory on listing sites. Easy to use and pretty fun.
Cons
I feel like Spin Car is a lot of money for the features. Even though it is innovative, small car lots can't afford extras.

Outstanding Product!
SpinCar easily integrated into our web and inventory platforms. For our customers, the SpinCar presentation is much more interactive than static photos, which increases time spent on site and customer engagement. It also presents flawlessly on mobile, which is more important than ever.
