vAuto Provision vs. VinSolutions

Honestly, there is very little that I could ask for that this program does not already offer when it comes to maintaining a proper stock of vehicles, and ensuring that the vehicle is competitively priced when compared to similar vehicles at other local dealerships.

VinSolutions is a very deep application that can do it all, if that's what you're looking for. It is well-suited for active lead management. The reporting functionality could use some drastic simplification.

• Gives a solid base of comparison as to the pricing of inventory in the area vs. the potential vehicle you are looking at purchasing or selling.
• Stores pictures, car fax, like comparisons, and lead info on every unit
• Gives numerous different ways at analyzing stock units.

Incentivized

• Receiving leads from all website and third-party sources, and notifying employees when leads come in.
• Looking up reports. There are premade reports, and you can create your own reports to pull, or even to pull automatically at certain times.
• Settings roles and authorizations for employees, so they do not have too much access to alter the way they want to use it, but it's set upper manager's request.

• Some of the icons are a little esoteric and hard to understand intuitively.
• It would be nice if it were able to have preset pricing movements based on the age of unit, kind of like a stop-loss setup.
• Can be cumbersome to access some programs, e.g. Carfax required 4-5 steps to access.

• Could be easier to use - not the most intuitive setup I have seen.
• Realistically, it feels like VinSolutions and vAuto could be combined into a single product.

I have had very little need for customer support on this particular part of the X time suite, but I have dealt with them to a great extent within the fixed operations side of the dealership and they are always extremely responsive, incredibly helpful and are always there for you when needed. A great asset to their company.

Technical support, general customer support, implementation support are all top notch. All representatives from the company check in every couple weeks to make sure all is going well; if there is a problem, I generally have a solution given within hours if not soon; and they are friendly, easy to understand, and do a great job. Well done!

This is really the only product I seriously looked at in this segment. It does literally everything I want, it excludes nothing, with nothing there that is not needed. Every feature is great, it works together with the other Xtime products to cover basically every need within an automotive dealership world.

I have not personally used other products.

• Has increased ROI by enabling better pricing of vehicles, keeps in line with other dealers without underselling.
• By carefully tracking aged inventory and enabling alerts at set age points, it has positively impacted gross by ensuring inventory turnover.
• Other than the cost of the program itself, no negative issues with ROI.

Incentivized

• By tracking front and back end gross openly, it seems to incentivize sales people to try harder to hold onto money.
• It does a great job of ensuring customer satisfaction by reminding sales associates to follow through on sales and follow up post-sale.
• Reporting functions make it easy to track leads, hand them off to different reps who are possibly better suited to complete the sale.
