My overall experience has been ok. However, I think the team is great, and believe they are working their butts off to make the best product possible for those of us in the industry. So far I believe, with everything considered, they are well ahead of their competition in many ways. Especially when you consider what you get for your money. Premium software at a great price!
Pros
Easy, friendly, quick communication with the team, valuable updates to the software regularly, product is very easy on the eyes. The team actually takes takes feedback and works to figure things out to grow their product. And it’s not a bunch of nameless faceless peons who seem to be detached leadership. I feel like a real team is behind this from the top down.
Cons
The calendar they have to offer is functional, but I wish there were more to it to make it work better for me. And offered integrations with other calendars.

Its pretty good and could easily be the best thing out there but it needs a bunch of little tweaks to get there.
Pros
Its affordable and gets the job done adequatly.
Cons
Its very buggy. At least the repeating payments and invoice entries seems to have been fixed. However the scheduler is confusing because you cant assign tasks to different technicians or change the color for appointments so it is very difficult to use. The invoice tempkates became very difficult to edit when they used to be easy. I need to be able to add regular fees, before taxes and they need to be totled by my choice not "other" no one is happy seeing "other" on an invoice. There needs to be a way to add a customer paid fee to the pay online option. I dont need to sacrifice $100 so a cuatomer can put their $2000 bill on a credit card. I need to be able to pass that cost on to the consumer. Also when Im in invoices and I ipen one and go back to the list, it should take me to where I was not back to invoice #1 every time.

I love it. I could not do auto repair without it and customers are impressed with how professional it makes everything look.
Pros
I love the ease of use ARI provides, it is simple to track customers and write up invoices. They integrate parts tech which is new to me but a wonderful add on. But the biggest key thing that keeps me an ARI user for life is the customer servjce they provide. Customer service is very prompt and they always respond and actually listen and make changes. I lersonally have had things changed that i suggested to there team amd to ny amazement it was there on the next update.
Cons
The old interface i lreffered much mlre to this new one they have but i am sure with time they will work out the kinks. Everyone apparently wanted a new interface i was one of the few that liked the old one a lot.

I honestly really like the app and I’m always recommending it to my friends and they really like it. Just takes some time to get used to and setting up the inventory is a lot of work
Pros
Easy to use for both the clients and the team/ employees.
Always updating and getting better
Quick and easy place to do all things needed
Cons
Accounting and areas like that are time consuming but if you have quick books your basically paying for 2 subscriptions that do the same thing but quick books is easier & more convenient

Great Value, Actually Saves Me Money.
Reviewed on 2024-06-13
Pros
Efficiently keeping track of ordered parts for customer repairs is crucial to make money. Since switching to ARI my profits have increased.
Cons
Could be less simple, I like the ease of use but my previous shop used LightSpeed which had way more options and data points. More Data Points and shop statistics would be nice. A Video series for tips and tricks would be cool, maybe I'm missing a lot of hidden features.

Just Great Software
Reviewed on 2024-06-17
Pros
The system does take some getting used too but then again what system doesn't, the part I like the most is the ease of seeing what's been paid and what hasn't been paid, also having the added feature to add client notes and service reminders to accounts
Cons
The "clunkyness" of the software, while these are minor they are holding this system back from becoming a high volume shop software, works great with less than 10 employees or by yourself as a shop management

I use ARI mostly for work orders to track repairs done to a truck fleet. The reports i need to generate for an audit works awesome with all dates and miles as well as repair details all on the report for DOT audits
Pros
Building work orders and tracking from start to finish is awesome
Cons
What i like least about ARI is editing the work orders needing to go to the top right corner and find what i want to edit. These should be small radio buttons right on the work order
