Our bookwork system has 100% improved since we've had it. Keeping track of inventory and the ability to have billing and accounting in spot has greatly improved what we have.

CEC Turf & Tractor

I've been dealing with Ideal since I first started my job @Allpower Equipment Company back in January of 2011. As the only parts guy at the time, I picked up on the software very easily and was amazed on how versatile it was where I could do almost anything. The General Manager here at the time a year later had a stroke. I had to jump into his shoe's shotgun style. Ideal support team walked me through everything I needed to learn of quickly and been a great support. I eventually took over as General Manager and work with them time to time. The staff has taught me so much I don't have to contact them often. I miss some of my favorites that moved on, but Ryan (the sales support) and technician Paul have been great help at any time and go way out of their way. I would recommend Ideal software to any dealership of any kind. They design the software with the needs of this kind of Industry. They also made upgrades that dealers suggest including some of my own requests.

Sales Manager

After replacing our no-longer-supported point-of-sales program with a program called Commander, we wrote that one off as a $9,000 mistake. We finally wised up and purchased IDEAL. We're in our third year with IDEAL and have found it perfect for our small engine sales and service business. The very few items we've found that needed improving, we submitted and they often incorporated in a future version. We are VERY much pleased with both the IDEAL program and their level of prompt, skilled support.

Office Manager

Our store has recently started our POS conversion to Ideal. Our territory sales executive, Warren, has been helpful in explaining the different plans and options. We feel comfortable and confident that we are in good hands. We are looking forward to getting the Ideal software installed and beginning our journey towards a great partnership. We have such high expectations on the capabilities and improvements ideal will bring to our company, and we know they will follow through on their support and commitment as they have so far.

Excellent features for OPE Dealers

Ideal software works well for outdoor power equipment sales and service. The work order process works well for the service department, the floor plan feature is nice to track units paid and unpaid, and the addition of the Accounting module helps to keep everything in one place.
