Orange County Register ranked AutoAlert as the 7^th best small company employer in Orange County, Calif., based on reviews of employee contributions by its editorial staff. The publication surveyed more than 1,000 companies in total to identify the final 100 best company workplaces in the county.

“AutoAlert has enjoyed a 60 percent compounded annual growth rate and in 2013 alone added 1,200 new auto dealership franchise customers. As a result, we have added staff and capabilities to support critical customer services like customer care, help desk and live daily customer sales training,” said Boyd Warner, CEO of  AutoAlert, Inc.

Workers rated their companies based on a number of workplace factors.
