ALBANY, N.Y. — Auto/Mate Dealership Systems announced the integration of its dealership management system with Storm Kiosks Inc., a supplier of automotive express service kiosks for auto dealership service departments.
Auto/Mate’s DMS customers can now seamlessly access and monitor kiosk activity including drop-offs, pick-ups, promotional upsells, and trade appraisals, executives said.
“The integration with Storm Kiosks Inc. allows dealers to provide their customers with a better service experience, which is achieved by increasing transparency, empowering customers and inspiring confidence and trust in the service process,” said Mike Esposito, president and CEO of Auto/Mate.
