Shop Boss Review
Shop boss is a great software, it isn't perfect but no one is perfect. I highly recommend shop boss.
PROSThe software is very windows based, so easy to work with, it's "click and play". The team at shop boss is interactive with their clients and very responsive to suggestions to make the product better. They have a dedicated support team available by chat during business hours and respond to email queries within one day typically.
CONSThe inventory system needs work - but guess what? As stated above, they are hugely responsive and they are working on fixing it! It would be nice if their reports explained a little better what data they were pulling (sometimes it doesn't make sense what information is presented) but again, if you contact support they will explain everything to you.
Reason for choosing Shop Boss
I looked at several products before choosing shop boss but I found shop boss was the most user friendly and capable program for our business.
Reasons for switching to Shop Boss
The previous software was cumbersome and outdated. The forms are not user friendly and the reporting is terrible.

Make the move and don’t look back!
Originally this company was family owned and the Overall experience was like dealing with family, then when they moved to the next level, the only thing that changed was more features, better resources and more friendly family to deal with!!
PROSFrom The integrated inspection feature, to the ease of creating unlimited canned jobs, to the way the software communicates with some of my marketing partners, where do I start? Where do I end? It’s good!!
CONSOnly con I can think of is that we didn’t switch sooner!!
Reason for choosing Shop Boss
The warm welcome from the sales, along with the ability to run the program side by side with my old one for a month for free.
Reasons for switching to Shop Boss
Originally Main reason was for the cloud based and to simplify. Saving money and dealing with a company that made more advancements inside of the first year than the old company made in 12 was a bonus!!

The only thing consistent with ShopBoss is it is down, and "being worked on"
Just know we are severely disappointed.
PROSWhen our current owner purchased the business from the previous owner, he used ShopBoss and we just carried it over since the staff was familiar with it so thats the only reason we use it.
CONSThe fact that it is so consistently down, or being worked on. And all we get is a sorry. Funny that the billing is NEVER down, or the ability for them to charge our cards is NEVER down. Our shop depends on this program to work for our shop to run seamlessly. However, we can't depend on that. This week so far (Thursday) it has been down twice for HOURS. The first day, we had customers waiting and our techs were in the middle of jobs when it went down, we had no way for them to pay--or even open Work Orders to see them, so the amount of people who walked out with free work is asinine. All because the program doesn't work like it is supposed to--like we pay for it to work.
Vendor Response
Hello Amanda, we can appreciate your frustration with stability over the past few days. Shop Boss is a program that is meant to run your business, and when it's unavailable, things come grinding to a stop. For that, we apologize, and will continue to monitor and optimize until we get back to our 99.99% uptime. If you'd like to discuss further, please reach out to our service team at customersuccess@shopboss.net and they'd be happy to discuss your current situation.
