Pros

“The features that are most impactful are the easy report features that it provides. What I like most about this software is how user friendly it is compared to the older models.”

Caleb C.

Parts Advisor

“As a Parts Manager I live in data and the reporting is a huge help in managing our inventory. The labels are easy to create and special orders have the last name which helps the techs.”

Lindsay P.

Parts Manager

“It is very comprehensive and has so many good moving parts that are beneficial for our dealership. We simply need quicker response From support.”

Sonny J.

Owner

Cons

“Much of our administrative frustration stems from the poor training and, admittedly, our staff not making much of an effort to learn and do their jobs properly.”

Evelyn K.

Accounting Manager

“We have been very frustrated with lightspeed over our 26 years of doing business with them.”

co-owner

“Don't let them tell you it integrates well with QuickBooks as the integration is terrible. Oh, did they tell you that costs extra.”
