About

You use a labor guide every day – whether it’s a book, computer program, or just what’s in your head from past jobs. Sometimes those times are way off the mark. Our labor guide is accurate, inexpensive, and takes lots of factors into account like experience with the job, specialty tools needed, and vehicle condition. We understand your challenges and do our best to maximize your success. Either as your “go-to” guide or your second opinion, you need the Real-Time Labor Guide in your tool box! As you become busier and more successful, you need new tools to help run your shop more efficiently and capture additional profit from your increased work load. You still need the Real-Time Labor Guide to give proper quotes but you also need a way to manage customers and access the jobs and estimates you have given them in the past. You need reports to help spot trends and opportunities to grow your income. And you need the tool you choose to be easy, reliable and secure. You need Real-Time Pro!

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • This software is great for shop owners and their customers. Easy, intuitive, lightweight, web based, and all the transactional data you’ll need to monitor your trends. -Customer portal allows customers to pay in a variety of ways on the web, and allows them to look at all service history. -Shop portal allows for streamlined work distribution -Parts portal can integrate to several softwares -Payment to account time is less than 3 days. -Amazing Customer Support with fast resolution times

Cons

  • I think the interface could be spiced up visually, and I would like a little more control over the data that goes in and what I can delete - as well as some general formatting options to reflect alternate data management systems.
