What Workshop Software is
Workshop Software is cloud-based garage management software for automotive and mechanical repair businesses. Its dashboard brings job progress, stock, quotes, staff allocation, and invoicing into one view. Customers can book online into a workshop’s system, and staff can use the mobile app to manage bookings, jobs, work hours, photos, videos, and inspections. Paperless vehicle inspections send findings and costs to customers’ smartphones for approval. Inventory tools cover stock levels and reorders; supplier management handles orders, invoices, and payments. Listed integrations include Xero, QuickBooks, MYOB, Burson EzyParts, Repco Navigator Pro, and WorkshopData. Integrated payments are available only in Australia, New Zealand, the UK, and the USA. The Workshop API is available with Platinum and can be managed only by admin users.
