About Dealer Network Management
A dealer network management system is essential for automobile manufacturers that want to improve their sales operations, inventory management, and customer service.

A car dealer network system allows you to view available stock in real time, facilitates inventory tracking, and enables the efficient allocation of vehicles and parts to different dealerships on demand or according to sales forecasts.
Dealer network management solutions integrate CRM functionalities to help dealerships build and maintain long-term customer relationships and improve communication with them. It provides tools for managing customer information, tracking interactions, and enabling a personalised approach for improved customer satisfaction and loyalty.
It also encompasses features such as lead management, sales activity tracking, and sales performance monitoring across dealerships. It organises and centralises lead management, tracks the sales pipeline, and generates reporting to identify trends and opportunities for improvement. Our team has experience of building such systems for some of the leading companies in the automotive industry: Kia, Mazda, and Hyundai.

FAQ
Here are some commonly asked questions about dealer network management systems and our answers. If your questions remain unanswered, feel free to discuss them with us.
What is the difference between Dealer Network Management and Dealer Management System?
A dealer network management system (DNMS) coordinates a network of dealers and focuses on relationship management and performance monitoring. On the other hand, a dealer management system (DMS) is a solution used by individual dealerships to manage their day-to-day operations, which typically includes modules for inventory management, sales processing, CRM, financial reporting, etc.
Which third-party integrations can enhance DNMS functionality?
You can enhance the capabilities of dealer network management software by integrating it with third-party systems. For instance, sales and marketing tools like Salesforce improve lead generation, nurturing, and conversion throughout your campaigns. Furthermore, accounting tools like Xero can streamline financial management and reporting across the network, and SAP can also be integrated with different systems.
What are the key benefits of dealership software solutions?
Such systems, and DNMSs in particular, offer substantial advantages. Above all, dealership service software enables communication between dealerships, and enhances the overall efficiency of the dealer ecosystem. They provide instant access to data, which facilitates informed decision-making.
