The Car-X Dealers Meeting brings together dealers from across the entire Car-X Tire & Auto service centers to participate in business sessions and information gathering with select vendors. KCS is thankful to once again be invited to participate in this event and are eager to showcase VAST and VAST Online point of sale solutions.
VAST is a sophisticated point of sale and management system designed for both single and multi-location tire dealers and auto service shops. Its powerful yet easy-to-use features help to increase revenues and generate incremental profits while enhancing customer service and productivity.
VAST Online is the browser-based version of VAST and is built with a modern user interface that maintains a familiar workflow that users are comfortable with and will run smoothly on a desktop or tablet. As a cloud-hosted solution, software updates and backups happen automatically and seamlessly in a secure data center. With its seamless connectivity to KCS' e-commerce solution, shops can instantly see part and tire availability at participating suppliers, and place hot-shot orders from directly within a work order.
We will also be showcasing our parts catalog and connectivity solution for tire and auto service dealers, VAST Commerce, at this year’s show. Built on KCS' OpenWebs e-commerce and Autocat catalog platforms, VAST Commerce’s open architecture provides users with a single solution for all their connectivity requirements.
In addition to the latest catalog integration option, KCS will be showing how our solutions work with the CarSide (digital vehicle inspection) integration. CarSide enables shops to send customers a digital report of recommended repairs directly to their smartphone, including pictures and videos. It shows them exactly what the technician sees, allowing them to make an informed decision before approving needed repairs.
Once again, we are pleased to be included in the Car-X Dealer Meeting, and we are looking forward to showcasing the power of VAST and VAST Online.
