Shop Methods overview

What is Shop Methods?

Shop Methods is a cloud-based automotive solution for small businesses that helps automate and streamline back-office operations. Designed for independent auto repair shops and automobile service providers, it allows users to create brand value through customizable shop landing pages and a customer portal. It lets users track all documents as they proceed through pipelines, from generating estimates, through to preparing repair orders, and processing invoices and payments.

Key features of Shop Methods include estimating, invoicing, repair order management, appointment scheduling and job status tracking. It provides communication tools, which enable businesses to create and send custom text messages and emails to customers. It comes with an automation module, which automatically alerts assigned resources by email or SMS when ROs, estimates, or invoice statuses are changed.

Shop Methods facilitates integration with QuickBooks, payment processors, PayPal, MOTOR, and more applications. The tool also provides dashboards for users to gain insights into estimates or repair orders, create new customers, and search for labor rates
