Auto/Mate Adds Dashboard Dealership Enterprises
The new partnership pairs Auto/Mate’s DMS with Dashboard’s data reporting suite. Clients of both companies can now enjoy seamless data exchange and real-time updates.
ALBANY, N.Y. — Auto/Mate Dealership Systems today announced its dealership management system (DMS) is fully integrated with Dashboard Dealership Enterprises, a developer of data reporting systems and services for dealership management.
Auto dealerships using both solutions are now able to enjoy seamless data exchange and real-time updates between the two systems, said Auto/Mate President and CEO Mike Esposito.
“Managers at every level in automotive retail have more important things to do than spend time compiling data into reports, which quickly become inaccurate and don’t tell the story behind the numbers,” Esposito said. “Analytics and business intelligence software allow managers to drill down and identify why problems are occurring, so they can take immediate and appropriate action.”
Dashboard Dealership Enterprises’ flagship product, Executive Eye, is a mainstay in more than 750 dealerships, including many of those listed with the 2016 Automotive News Top 150 Dealership Groups.
“Our mission is to exceed customer expectations for services, quality, speed of implementation, ease of use and support,” said Josh Blick, Dashboard Dealership Enterprises CEO. “The Open/Mate integration process with Auto/Mate was painless and we are thrilled that more auto dealers now have an enterprise option to analytics and business intelligence.”
