Using this downtime to do my first years accounts, I never imagined what a confusing job it would be. I thought I’d kept decent records in excel, but they just aren’t fit for this purpose.

Just wondering if anyone can recommend any accounting software, needs to be something fairly cheap, like an app, as I don’t have pockets for a proper dealer system at the moment. Any recommendations would be appreciated 

 

 

 

Hi JDM, 

 

Blatant self promotion, and i sincerely apologise in advance if i'm breaking any forum rules or if i'm stepping on any toes but you could give www.virtualyard.co.uk a shot. 

 

We are a DMS offering basic book keeping for margin and qualifying schemes. We also export to Xero. 

On top of that:

- Virtual Yard is Free for any motor dealer with retail stock worth under £100,000

- We have a Mobile app to control 90% of your DMS from a phone of tablet.

- We offer Automated advertising feeds and Free Facebook Marketplace ads for registered users.

- We are a simple cloud based software you can access from anywhere on any connected device.

- We also do Website design with automated feeds

Since we are still in the process of launching in the UK we are always keen to hear customers feedback. If we don't have a feature you are looking for, of if something isn''t working the way you'd like it to then we will do everything we can to make it work for you as it strengthens our software in the process.

Not sure I'm too happy with this TnC

 

We may assess a late charge if you do not pay on time regardless of any disputes you may have raised about your bill. You must pay these late charges when we bill you for them. The late charge will be the lesser of 1% of the unpaid amount each month or the maximum rate that is permitted by law. We may use a third party to collect past due amounts. You must pay for all reasonable costs we incur to collect any overdue amounts. These costs may include legal fees and costs. We may suspend or cancel your service if you do not pay in full and on time.

Thanks for this Tradex, I see your point.

 

This does not apply to the UK market. It will be removed shortly. In fact we do not charge any late fees anywhere anymore. 

 

Thanks for the feedback.

Hello Everyone.

Just wanted to introduce myself. I'm Pete, and I look after customer service for Virtual Yard here in the UK. 

We are an Australian DMS and have only recently expanded to the UK, so although we do have a lot (20 years) of experience with cars/sales/software and advertising, we are fairly new to used car dealer requirements in the UK. 

To Mark and Grant, thanks for the compliments on our look, but we would like to be more than just looking slick. Would be great to also be slick functionally. We have been working with a few dealers in the UK over the last few months and have learnt and implemented loads thanks to their help. But, there is always room for improvement. 

I'd be grateful to anyone here if they shared any feedback, what they like, what they don't like, what's tricky to use and what they need that is missing etc and in turn i'd use that info to develop our offering here in the UK with an aim to be a DMS that you guys want to use. 

We are free for anyone with up to a 100k worth of stock, and we intend to keep it that way. On top of that, we do Facebook Marketplace ads for free for as long as Facebook let us. We also have a new app coming out in 2020 which aims to be the best in market.

Lastly, we make pretty decent automated websites.  www.dealershipwebsite.co.uk
