Remember the Blackberry?
The Blackberry was revolutionary! It was a sleek device that enabled you to make calls,
send emails and stay connected on the go. It was so addictive that it earned the nickname,
‘CrackBerry’. Then the iPhone completely changed everything.
In the last 20 years, technology has transformed the world faster than ever before. That
pace of innovation is crucial for you as an automotive dealer. You need the Freedom to
choose the apps that work best for you, and you shouldn’t have to wait years to make the
switch.
That’s where VUE comes in. The freedom to build your tech stack, your way.
Who really makes your cars?
Think about it: Ford, GM and other big names don’t make every car part. They make the
power trains and engines. They assemble the vehicles. But others build the seats,
suspensions, brake systems, wheels or stereos. These suppliers do what they do best so
that the final product is as great as possible.
It’s the same with us. We understand that some companies are better at certain things.
We don’t try to do everything. Instead, we focus on delivering the best core DMS platform
and seamless integrations with the best apps that will help you stay competitive.
Let VUE help you run your operations, safeguard your data and make it easier for you to
count your money and manage your dealership. You get the apps that help you do great
things, make money and take care of consumers.
Let’s address the elephant in the room
I’ve been in the automotive technology industry for 30 years. I know switching DMS
providers can feel overwhelming and stressful. But with VUE, you won’t have to worry
about major disruptions. Only the core DMS will change. Anything else that’s already
working for you can stay.
Here’s the best part:
- Your team won’t be thrown into chaos.
- They won’t need to learn a whole new system all at once.
- The anxiety? It’s gone.
- With VUE, you get the freedom to choose the best-in-class tools for your business and integrate them with ease.
Even if you’ve been with another DMS for years, we will make sure that your data is
mapped and converted correctly.
“VUE is the 4th DMS I’ve worked on and, in my experience, I found it to be the most
efficient, simplest and most well organized DMS.” Kristi Snyder, GM / Parker CDJR
The fun part: Choosing your tech
The average dealership has between 13 and 18 technology vendors. VUE is built for today
and built for tomorrow as applications change. You’re no longer stuck with a system that
doesn’t work well for you or features you don’t need.
How will that improve your work life?
- We provide the secure, cloud – core DMS; a solid foundation for your business. Since we’re not focused on dozens of other applications, VUE keeps its attention on ease of use and your core needs. It’s all the things you need, without the things you don’t.
- You have the freedom to choose your tech stack. Many customers tell us that’s the fun stuff! From your inventory management system, service scheduler, parts inventory tool; and payment processing app that work for you. We’re committed to staying on top of new tools and integrating the best solutions for your business.
- Our U.S.-based client support is straightforward. You won’t have to explain
- your situation to a generalist. Our support team understands dealership operations. If you have a parts question, you’ll talk with a parts person with parts experience. That removes the anxiety.
Say goodbye to long-term contracts
Some DMS providers lock you into contracts that can last four to five years. They may also
require you to use their entire software suite, whether you need it or not.
What if, two years from now, a new tool comes out that could revolutionize your business,
but you can’t use it or you’ll be forced to pay extra fees?
VUE’s model eliminates these worries. You won’t be tied down by long-term agreements
and we won’t force you to use software you don’t want.
- Unlimited users? Yes.
- No data storage restrictions? Absolutely.
- Flexibility to adjust as your business needs change? Of course.
We have very straightforward agreements. With VUE, you never have to worry that
circumstances will change before your contract ends.
What will you do with the extra money?
When you’re not paying for unnecessary features, you’ll have more resources to grow
your business. Dominion DMS wants to be a good value. We are affordable and
transparent, giving you the freedom to invest your money in building the perfect tech
stack for your dealership.
Trying to be everything to everybody doesn’t work
Some DMS providers often fail to realize it’s not possible to be the best at everything. As I
explained in a recent DealerRefresh podcast, we focus on what we do best: running your
operations smoothly. We stay in our lane, so you can thrive in yours.
