Comparison
DealerHub instead of Excel at the dealership
Why inventory, contracts and workshop run better in a DMS than in spreadsheets.
Many businesses start with Excel. Once several people sell, reserve and run workshop jobs, status, history and a shared truth per vehicle go missing.
| Topic | Excel | DealerHub |
|---|---|---|
| Vehicle stock | Rows, filters, often multiple files | Digital file with status, stock number and chassis number |
| Intake | Manual typing, copy-paste from papers | Chassis number → SwissCarInfo → complete |
| Duplicates | Hard to spot across files | Early check on chassis number and VIN |
| Contracts | Word templates, version chaos | Sale and reservation contracts from the file |
| Workshop | Separate sheet or second tool | Jobs and time clock on the vehicle |
| Team | Chat and mail as source of truth | Shared stock, permissions and history |
| Switzerland | No CH processes built in | Chassis number, SwissCarInfo, hosting in Switzerland |
