Your dealership is made up of many different departments and specialties, from inventory and financing to service and parts. To ensure you have a strong understanding of your dealership profits and operations, you can utilize a car dealer software solution.  

If you’re curious about the best car dealer software solutions, hear from NCM Associates Sales Manager and software expert, Jared Bowers. 

Best Things to Look for in a Car Dealer Software Solution 

With so much distinct dealership software to choose from, there are a few things you’ll need to consider before choosing the right solution for you. First, it’s important to determine your dealership’s needs.  

Every dealership is different. Perhaps you are looking to boost sales of your new vehicle inventory and would benefit from inventory software. Maybe you’d benefit from multi-point inspection software, which promotes thorough and efficient service.  

Once you identify your dealership needs, you’ll want to find software solutions that integrate seamlessly with your Dealer Management System (DMS). Your dealer software solution should help you organize the data from the DMS and paint a clear picture of your dealership’s performance. 

The right software solution can help your dealership team focus on any problems at hand, so you can improve internal operations and the overall dealership experience.  

Top Car Dealer Software Solutions From NCM Associates 

At NCM Associates, we provide a collection of software solutions that are designed to support your dealership by identifying and organizing operational data. Here's what makes our software some of the best solutions for car dealers:  

Axcessa  

Axcessa was started by several car dealers in California to better streamline dealership data. This software is made by dealers, for dealers, to make essential data readily available. Once it is plugged into the DMS, it can pull data every three hours and update around eight times per day.  

Having access to consistent, organized dealership data can hold your team accountable and help you identify areas of improvement. Additionally, Axcessa makes it easy to compare your data with our NCM automotive benchmarks, so you can help your team reach their goals.  

Echo  

Echo is a web-based data engine developed by automotive experts and certified IT and accounting professionals. This software can easily collect and compare dealership data, making it easily accessible through one platform.  

For enterprises that comprise various manufacturers, Echo is an incredibly efficient tool. You know that you can’t compare the data for different manufacturers directly; they’re like apples and oranges. Echo eliminates OEM-specific account classification so that two different dealerships can be compared side-by-side using the same criteria.
