What is a dealership management system and why do you need one?

A dealership management system (DMS) is a suite of software to help dealers run their business more effectively - from sales to service to accounting to inventory management. With a DMS, you can digitize all information flowing throughout your dealership and see at-a-glance what the profitability is for each department. No more clipboards and sticky notes required.

Not only that, but Ideal’s DMS is cloud-based, giving you the ability to manage your business from anywhere.
