A workshop that runs well is not the one with the most software, it is the one where work does not stop to look for information. With Evergest the WDB Automotive range is complete on the management side: appointments, check-in, job progress, records and stock all in a single piece of software.
A single flow, from check-in to handing the vehicle back.
The feature the product is built around is called Job flow: a view showing at any moment which stage of the repair or service each vehicle has reached. For a workshop it is a decisive feature for organising the work.
Upstream of it sits Fast Check-In, a dynamic check-in completed in a few clicks without giving up detail. The inspection sheets are fully customisable. This is the point at which many management systems get abandoned, because a check-in done properly takes time a workshop does not have — here the trade-off is settled by making it fast and thorough when it needs to be.
Search enhanced by artificial intelligence
Smart Search is a search engine built on artificial intelligence that analyses jobs, customers, work orders and documents. You type a name or a number plate and get all the information you need. It is a feature many technicians now find indispensable in daily use.
What changes for networks and distributors
For anyone coordinating a network, the value lies not in the individual feature but in the scope. Evergest joins a product range that covers a technical database, manuals, estimating software and training: it means one supplier, one contract and one technical contact for tools the workshops would use anyway, buying them separately from four different suppliers.
It is the same principle behind the whole B2B proposition of WDB Automotive: reduce the number of people you have to deal with without reducing the tools.
The job flow is fantastic — on a single screen I can see the status of everything going on in my workshop.
Evergest is available to individual workshops, networks and distributors.
