Workshop Software
Workshop Software is cloud-based management software for automotive and mechanical repair workshops. Its dashboard brings job progress, stock, quotes, staff allocation, and invoicing into view. Customers can book through the workshop’s online system, while the mobile app supports bookings, jobs, photos, videos, work hours, and inspections. Paperless vehicle inspections can send findings and costs to customers’ smartphones for approval. Inventory tools track stock levels and reorders; supplier management covers orders, invoices, and payments. Listed integrations include Xero, QuickBooks, MYOB, Burson EzyParts, Repco Navigator Pro, and WorkshopData. The software runs on Android, iOS, and web. Pricing lists Silver, Gold, and Platinum plans, with monthly options at 119.00 AUD, 149.00 AUD, and 249.00 AUD respectively, plus GST. The pricing note lists service from $149/mo (annual) and a 14-day trial; there is no free plan. Integrated payments are available only in Australia, New Zealand, the UK, and the USA. The Workshop API is available on Platinum and can be managed only by admin users.
