Honestly, there is very little that I could ask for that this program does not already offer when it comes to maintaining a proper stock of vehicles, and ensuring that the vehicle is competitively priced when compared to similar vehicles at other local dealerships.

Cox Enterprises
  • Some of the icons are a little esoteric and hard to understand intuitively.
  • It would be nice if it were able to have preset pricing movements based on the age of unit, kind of like a stop-loss setup.
  • Can be cumbersome to access some programs, e.g. Carfax required 4-5 steps to access.

I have had very little need for customer support on this particular part of the X time suite, but I have dealt with them to a great extent within the fixed operations side of the dealership and they are always extremely responsive, incredibly helpful and are always there for you when needed. A great asset to their company.

This is really the only product I seriously looked at in this segment. It does literally everything I want, it excludes nothing, with nothing there that is not needed. Every feature is great, it works together with the other Xtime products to cover basically every need within an automotive dealership world.
