Give customers the visibility they crave with up-to-the-minute communication via text and email along with repair progress photos — alleviate their stress and impress them with convenience.

Benefits

Benefits

Reduce incoming calls. Improve customer satisfaction. Secure new business.

Transparent Communication, Happy Clients

Technicians and appraisers can upload photos for their customers to view at any time, leading to a significant reduction in status update phone calls and ultimately better cycle time, therefore happy customers, which is truly priceless.

24/7 Online Repair Status

AutoWatch allows vehicle owners to see photos of the vehicle repair progress online, at any time, using their mobile device or computer. Shops can update the status and upload photos using an application called Shop Back Room.

Time Management for New Business

These simple, online updates substantially reduce incoming phone calls, improve cycle time and increase customer satisfaction. This helps generate referral business, strengthen existing direct repair relationships (DRP) and help secure new customers.

Mobile Integration

GoTime Repair mobile app syncs the desktop version of AutoWatch with the repairer’s smartphone, allowing techs to view and manage vehicles (including uploading photos and updating status) whether they are in front of their computer or out on the shop floor.

Multiple Channel Communication

As more people use their smartphones to manage their lives, they will appreciate the option to receive status updates via text message, email or web portal. With fewer reasons to call into the shop to check on status, this also frees up your staff’s time to focus on other tasks.

Improved Customer Experience

The Customer Satisfaction Index (CSI) survey takes place while the vehicle is still in the shop. You can customize these questions to get immediate feedback on your service and detect any problems, addressing any issues up-front to vastly improve the overall customer experience.
