Mobile and Browser Agnostic Platform — Using HTML 5 technology, Dealertrack DMS 2.0 offers a completely mobile and browser agnostic platform that can be accessed via a variety of computers or industry leading tablets with an Internet connection.
Efficient and Customized Navigation — DMS 2.0 aims to help improve usability and workflow by giving users the ability to customize the screen display and navigation with the new My Favorite feature.
Streamlined Financial Analytics — Users will be able to better sort, filter and move data for advanced financial analysis.
Mobile App Platform — The modular functionality of the platform allows Dealertrack or third-party providers to quickly develop customized mobile apps.
