I use Shopmonkey for everything to do with my shop, from taking appointments to collecting reviews... I no longer need to call multiple vendors, and I love the clear layout of my schedule.

My favourite feature is probably the ability to text customers and how easy it is to send and explain invoices/quotes to customers.

Our customers feel really connected to the repairs that are going on with their car. For the customer, that’s such a big win.
