DealerSocket Launches an Upgraded Version of Their Inventory+ Software

New enhancements offer dealers greater control and visibility
achieving higher profit per vehicle

DALLAS–(BUSINESS WIRE)–DealerSocket,
Inc.
, a leading software provider for the automotive industry, today
announced an upgraded version of its Inventory+ software solution. The
inventory management tool now touts a new, easy-to-use interface,
intuitive navigation, and expanded reporting capabilities that provide
value to both single-store operations and multi-rooftop dealer groups.
The new features enable customers to sell their vehicles at a greater
profit, which is in line with DealerSocket’s longstanding focus on
profit over velocity.

After listening to our customers, we invested significant capital and
resources to make Inventory+ a best-in-class product focused on the
primary needs of dealers,” said DealerSocket President and CEO Sejal
Pietrzak. “Our upgraded version of Inventory+ is yet another step as we
continue transforming our inventory management product suite to support
the entire vehicle lifecycle. Our software gives our customers full
control of their inventory strategy and ensures they are stocking the
right vehicles to yield the highest profits.”

DealerSocket’s Inventory+ now has a user experience and design that
matches the rest of the company’s suite of products, meaning that a user
of DealerSocket’s suite will have familiarity and experience with the
design, making the training of staff on DealerSocket’s software simpler
and more effective for dealers.

The enhancements and innovations for Inventory+ include:

  • All New Inventory Manager with a Simpler User Experience:
    Considered the hub of Inventory+, Inventory Manager now has a new look
    and feel with a powerful search engine and group management
    capabilities. Tasks that previously took hours to complete can now be
    performed in minutes, whether managing inventory across a single lot
    or a multi-store group.
  • Bulk Pricing Engine: Built into the backbone of Inventory
    Manager is Bulk Pricing, which dealers and dealer group operators can
    use to identify new and used vehicles by age, trim, make, along with
    other attributes, and adjust pricing by dollar amount or percentage.
    Pilot customers using the new bulk pricing engine are making real-time
    price changes to vehicles on their lot to match market conditions,
    allowing them to sell faster and at a greater profit.
  • Transportation Notifications: Inventory+ can now notify a
    shipper or carrier when a group trade or dealer transfer occurs. With
    two clicks, dealers can send a shipper or carrier all the pertinent
    information to quickly and efficiently order vehicle transportation.
  • Group Management: Along with the strong business intelligence
    available within Inventory+, dealer groups can segment by region,
    pre-owned, and a host of other attributes. The new Group Management
    capabilities provide powerful inventory management, reporting and
    analytics, group trade, and centralized appraisals.
  • Transparent Reporting and Analytics: The new reporting engine
    has more comprehensive capabilities for dealer groups that provides
    more transparency across stores, taking away the costly and
    time-consuming manual reports.

DealerSocket’s fundamental objective with our Inventory+ software has
always been about maximizing profit for our dealers. The major
enhancements we have just released ensure that every vehicle has an
opportunity to be sold at a timely profit,” said Steve Meeker,
DealerSocket’s General Manager of Inventory+. “Whether a dealer has a
single lot or multiple rooftops, the innovative functionality we
released today will provide benefits to help our dealers grow their
business successfully.”
