SHIFTMobility introduces ShopLite, a fully mobile solution geared for independent repair centers. ShopLite is a vertically integrated solution connecting inventory and price lists to repair centers enabling immediate response to car owner’s service needs.
ShopLite’s comprehensive set of applications with a user-friendly intuitive design, brings a cohesive experience to repair centers by managing their shop, customers and supplier relationships.
“We’re excited to launch ShopLite Basic and Premium,” Pavana Jain, CEO of ShiftMobility, Inc. said. “We are the only automotive app offering a comprehensive solution that was built with shop owners’ input and geared to solve their everyday pain points.”
After industry research, Jain discovered that auto repair shops were repeatedly plagued with inaccurate estimates, erroneous part orders, limited access to illustrations and diagnostic tools and a lack of logistic efficiency. These factors significantly impact the bottom line and customer satisfaction. Not only did Jain seek to resolve these issues, she sought to create an app that would work on both mobile devices and browsers with no upgrades or maintenance necessary.
“Cars are mobile,” Jain explained, “customers driving the cars are mobile, now it is time for people who take care of cars to be mobile as well.”
