DealersLink Releases FastBook Pro 5.0
DealersLink says its new booking tool features an improved VIN scanner and state-of-the-art enhancements.
BROOMFIELD, Colo. — Automotive systems integration and networking technology provider DealersLink has announced the release of its new FastBook Pro 5.0 booking tool. It was designed to allow dealers to scan VINs and book out NADA, KBB, MMR, Black Book, CARFAX and AutoCheck simultaneously, as well as view live local retail-market pricing.
FastBook Pro 5.0 is said to feature swipe navigation, faster multithreaded book retrievals, a matrix of all book conditions, vehicle grades, competitive pricing and velocity charts. It can be downloaded from the Google Play store and iTunes. DealersLink members receive a free FastBook license with their membership, according to CEO Mike Goicoechea.
“FastBook Pro 5.0 has the fastest VIN scanner on the market today,” Goicoechea said. “It will help take the risk out of live auction bidding. As dealers consider inventory and decide whether or not to bid, they can use the app to instantly compare multiple book values on the fly. It’s fast, accurate and ensures they have all the information they need before placing a bid.”
