Questions to bring to both vendor demos

These questions are based on the documented catalog signals above. They are not verified product test results or dealer endorsements. Ask both vendors to show the workflows in your actual dealership environment.

  1. Ask both vendors to demonstrate Manage repair orders using the same dealership scenario.

    A shared catalog label doesn't establish the depth, configuration, or quality of either workflow.

  2. Ask Auto/Mate DMS to show Support online vehicle-shopping and deal workflows, then ask Autosoft DMS how it addresses the same need.

    This difference comes from currently documented catalog labels. Missing documentation is not proof a competitor lacks a feature.

  3. Ask Autosoft DMS to show Manage customer relationships, then ask Auto/Mate DMS how it addresses the same need.

    Request a live workflow and clarify which capabilities are standard, optional, or require integrations.

  4. Request a dealership-specific implementation and integration walkthrough from both vendors.

    Confirm required integrations, migration work, permissions, training, support, and ongoing costs directly with each vendor.
