IAS Announces New Selling Platform For SmartDealerProducts
Austin, Texas – SmartDealerProducts, the retail software division of IAS, is now offering its complete software suite to all dealerships regardless of warranty commitments.
SmartDealerProducts was the first in the industry to pioneer a complete solution that enabled automotive dealerships to deliver a simple and profitable F&I process. The SmartDealerProducts software suite consists of the SmartPad interview tablet-based software; SmartMenu professional menu selling software featuring a simple, Web-based approach; SmartEye digital recording software designed for compliance and quality assurance; and the new SmartP.R.U. Web-based reporting and analytics tool.
“There is so much value in SmartDealerProducts, particularly because dealers can receive all four products for one low price,” said Matt Nowicki, director of information technology, IAS. “Lifting our warranty commitments makes SmartDealerProducts accessible to any dealership that is interested in increased profits, compliance and CSI.”
The company is offering a single monthly license fee that gives dealers access to the complete software suite. Plus, without any up front or additional monthly fees, dealers can utilize certified DMS integration for the world’s largest DMS providers.
