Frequently Asked Questions
How do automotive companies onboard dealership staff to DMS platforms?
Role-specific tours for sales, F&I, and service departments focus each staff member on their daily workflows. A salesperson tours inventory search and deal structuring, while a service advisor tours appointment scheduling and repair order creation. This targeted approach gets staff productive in days instead of weeks.
Can product tours work in vehicle companion apps?
Yes. Any web-based or hybrid mobile application can integrate Produktly tours. Vehicle companion apps can use tours to guide owners through remote start setup, charging schedule configuration, and trip planning features that many owners never discover on their own.
How do fleet companies measure digital adoption ROI?
Track metrics like telematics dashboard daily active users, percentage of fleet with active alert configurations, and time to configure a new vehicle in the system. The ROI manifests as reduced fuel costs, fewer breakdowns, and lower administrative overhead when fleet managers fully utilize available tools.
