Cloud-based auto and truck repair shop management software

About Fullbay

Fullbay is a software solution designed to support and manage the business of heavy duty, busy automobile (truck) repair shops and diesel repair shops. Cloud-based with centralized online access from any web-enabled device, the system promises to allow managers, techs and customers to engage with the operations within and outside the shop premises. From a custom branded portal, clients can administer their own information, submit repair requests, view maintenance histories, approve any work and indeed settle invoice payments. Those invoices can be raised accurately with every part accounted for, and both emailed to the customer and sent to QuickBooks Online within clicks.

Customers and staff can also enjoy greater transparency on the work carried out on their units, with Fullbay designed to reflect an "electronic medical record" (EMR) for truck repair. Detailed service histories can be recorded, viewed and queried by components, system, specific parts or servicing dates. Real time statistical reporting features also provide metrics and insights into performance efficiency, while the online deployment allows Fullbay to connect and share its information with other associated cloud apps.

    Honestly a great option, not just for heavy duty / diesel repair shops

    Reviewed on 2022/09/15

    Pros

    This software benefits from the fact it's cloud-based. That means it can integrate with tablets or cheaper Chromebooks. It's honestly really easy to use, but it's a little slower than an option locally installed. Multi-tiered pricing is critical and works perfectly here. You can also bulk upload inventory (up to 15,000 lines at a time)

    Cons

    It's slower than locally-installed options (at least as far as initial setup and integration). Honestly I think having it cloud-based outweighs the lag, but that's just me.

    Full bay has saved us tens of thousands of dollars already. The reduction of data entry in accounting allowed us to consolidate two positions into one, freeing up an entire salary. The ability to catalogue and maintain an accurate inventory has allowed us to start implementing an inventory reduction strategy, and the ability for Customers to authorize estimates online, and view documents through their portal is amazing! Although we're still training our Customers to use these features, it will be a continual time saver as we continue to expand.

    Pros

    Fullbay has enabled our business to continue its double digit growth by managing our inventory, providing insight into Technician productivity and by reducing the manual entry of accounting and administration functions. We have been able to go paperless and live, while providing our Customers greater insight.

    Cons

    I would like the ability to filter further with a number of reports, however, for the general user, the reporting is adequate.

    Response from Fullbay

    Linda, we appreciate you taking the time to write this review about Fullbay. We are so happy that Adrenaline Diesel is experiencing double digit growth, congratulations! We will pass on your suggestions to our development department and definitely appreciate your feedback. We want the reports to meet your needs. Have a great day!

    From the very first day Fullbay was very much interested in our success as a business and with the use of their software. Fullbay has always been extremely professional and prompt with our questions or needs. This partnership with them has helped push us to ever higher levels of service and excellence. I strongly believe we owe a lot of our growth to Fullbay. It frees us up to manage and service our fleet customers. From start to finish we are better, faster, and more accurate than we were before Fullbay.

    Pros

    Ease of use, portability, and professional appearance towards customers. So easy to train new users and I can work from anywhere I need to. Our customers love the way their invoices look and their access to their portal 24/7.

    Cons

    I really have nothing that I do not like about Fullbay. We often perceive problems, but those are sorted out quickly by our support team. There are very frequent updates and changes that continually improve and polish the software.

    Response from Fullbay

    Hello Troy. We appreciate this review and for giving us 5 stars in every area! We are happy to hear that training is going so well for you, and that your customers love the customer portal! We hope that helps keep customers returning to TDI. We will keep the updates coming, and we welcome you to keep the suggestions coming too! We will continue to earn your business. And, we will always be interested in your success! Have a great day, Troy!

    Fullbay has allowed our shop to operate in a more organized, accountable fashion. We don't need to dig through physical papers to find a customer phone number, a bill, or an old service order. It lets our technicians work in the field and accurately record their work, time, and parts. We have become a favorite among our customers as well simply because of the organized, itemized invoices that are generated from the data you enter as you work through a job.

    Pros

    Fullbay works well for inventory keeping, handling and recording bills, generating invoices for customers, and generally building a custom database for your company. I joined stepped into using Fullbay after the company had been using it as a main system for around two years and was immediatly impressed by how large the database of customer info, units, and vendor info was. Because everything you put into the system gets remembered and organized, it becomes easy to run a search for a customer, trailer, truck, bill, or vendor and find the information you need.

    Cons

    The interface can be a little dry at first, lots of different menus, but they all hold some necessary function. Also you are dependent on internet connection. While this works well when you have access to an internet connection all the time and the cloud functionality is very useful for tracking everything in real time, if you don't have a fast or reliable connection you could be refreshing the browser app multiple times to get it to load. A standalone phone app that could run offline and sync whenever reconnected would likely fix this issue.

    Response from Fullbay

    Samuel,
    Thank you for taking the time to post this review. It is great that Integrity Fleet Services is using Fullbay to store your customer's information. Fullbay will definitely keep your shop organized!
    We agree, lack of internet can cause frustration.
