Outdated Workflow or Limited Flexibility?

Marketing & Customer Growth Are Missing

Missed Calls or Lost Jobs?

Shop-Ware doesn’t include automated call handling, which can lead to missed appointments and lost revenue.

What Shop-Ware Users Wish Worked Better

Straight from verified reviews, see why many shops begin evaluating ALLDATA alternatives and how AutoLeap addresses those gaps.

Don’t Just Take Our Word For It

Hear directly from shop owners who made the switch from Protractor and chose AutoLeap to run their shops with confidence.

“Was very leery about switching, don’t like change but my Implementation Consultant, Cisilia, was very helpful, answering all my questions and guiding me. Everything I wanted was available from one place.”

“I love that the CRM is integrated into the shop management system, with easy access to customer reviews (internal and Google). However, the CRM is limited, preventing full use of your own data for marketing campaigns like direct mail. It also only works with actual customers, not mailing lists.”

“Very positive. Knowledgeable staff. Streamlined process. The product is intuitive and easy to use. Good stuff.”

“We ended up choosing AutoLeap over other high-ranking management software options because it’s friendlier for the Canadian market. Other software offered many features that were either unavailable or not compatible with Canada. Customer service is top-notch and made us feel comfortable with the system from the very beginning.”

“I think the best part of AutoLeap is that it is much more intuitive than most other software options. Features like allowing customers to defer services, recording what they chose to proceed with or not, collecting approval signatures on estimates, and having everything in a single system just make more sense than our previous software.”

“Having everything in one shop system, rather than using multiple peripheral software, makes life much easier. Everything is in one place, instead of needing a server computer and several programs open at the same time.”

Reviews Are Great, But What About The Results?

Numbers speak louder than words. Take a look at auto shops crushing the competition with AutoLeap.
