Pentana Solutions, first and foremost is a partner – if it means a car dealership will be more profitable or efficient then we’re for it. Over the last 40 years Pentana Solutions has built on its relationships, product suite and integration points to build a customer base of over 50,000 users.
Pentana Solutions’ DMS, DealerPRO is helping dealerships like yours improve customer relations, reduce business costs and increase profitability across the United Kingdom. It’s today’s credible, innovative DMS alternative.
Here are five reasons to consider DealerPRO as your new DMS:
Cost Effective and Scalable
With geographic and franchise expansion commonplace in the United Kingdom we understand the balance retail dealership groups need to maintain between cost and functionality. Feel refreshed – DealerPRO is cost effective for all, regardless of size so it can keep a dealership group at the front of the pack as it grows. This DMS operates as a great support for a single site and with all its functionality, transitions well into an enterprise level software tool. Furthermore, with 40 years experience, the Pentana Solutions project management team are experts in change management so all your staff, from IT Manager to Financial Controller will be well supported throughout their growth from single to multi-site.
Business Intelligence Included
Pentana Solutions doesn’t think Business Intelligence is an added option, all our clients use it daily, so it’s included as part of the DealerPRO bundle. DealerPRO’s Business Intelligence keeps an eye on the entire dealership in one clean set of graphs and tables. For example, this DMS will tell you, in real-time, exactly how many negotiations and contracts are in motion – at each location, for every sales person.
A clear snapshot into a user-friendly, intuitive, integrated dealer management system can make all the difference in the world; faster turnover of the entire dealership. One Pentana Solutions client told us they saw, ‘improved margins of 7% on used car sales in just one year.’ How? Simply by using the business intelligence information at hand and making clear, measurable changes over time.
In a constantly changing, competitive market, the ability to quickly see market changes and challenges- and adapt accordingly - can significantly effect the success of an organisation. DealerPRO’s Business Intelligence helps you always stay one step ahead of the competition.
Improved Staff Satisfaction
A long time ago, one of our clients once said, ‘It’s the people who make my dealership great.’ So the team at Pentana Solutions has continued to give dealership staff ways to work together whilst saving time across the board. Sharing information makes your organisation more transparent which has a positive effect on employees, and this paired with giving your team members more time is a winning equation.
If we use the aftersales department as an example, by increasing visibility across your service department, identifying profit leaks, improving efficiencies and mobilising your service department. Pentana Solutions’ DealerPRO enables efficient work flows and simplifies the scheduling and loading of workshops. With the powerful diary booking system, dealers are able to assign a service advisor to diagnose the vehicle, schedule workshop time and assign loan cars more easily than ever before giving them time to spend doing what’s most important.
Not only does DealerPRO allow this information to be shared outside of the aftersales department but as a DMS it integrates cleanly with other third party systems giving your staff one solution.
You Already Know How to Use it
We’re not about reinventing the wheel, Pentana Solutions is all about enhancing it. This is why DealerPRO has been built on a modern windows and web based system that you, and all your staff already know how to use.
We understand the challenges placed on a retail dealership, particularly in the showroom. Without weeks of run up and training on new technology, using DealerPRO, your sales team in particular will see real benefit. With mobile ready sales tools they will be better supported to work through negotiations, furthermore, they won’t need to leave the clients side.
