Manheim Adds Intelligent Search to OVE
The auction provider’s new personalized search tool was designed to offer dealers greater speed, more relevant results, and greater accuracy.
ATLANTA — Manheim announced the launch of intelligent search for wholesale inventory on OVE. Billed as the industry’s first such tool, the new capability will reduce search time and deliver more accurate and personalized search results to clients using OVE, a digital channel within the Manheim Marketplace — an omnichannel experience, according to the provider.
“We listen to our clients and are fully committed to making ongoing upgrades to ensure they can easily and efficiently transact with us in a digital environment that they trust,” said Zach Hallowell, vice president of the Manheim Digital Marketplace and RMS Automotive. “We will continue evolving our industry-leading digital assets to anticipate and meet the needs and preferences of buyers and sellers. Our goal is to enable clients to make faster, smarter decisions through a modern, personalized online experience.”
As an integral element in the Manheim Marketplace, OVE serves 66,000 active users and 900,000 monthly visits, while handling over 500,000 competitive marketplace transactions annually beyond the off-lease, grounding dealer purchase, according to the announcement.
