Tekmetric 101

Transitioning to a new shop management system can be overwhelming. You've got enough on your plate. Our onboarding process is much more than just a setup wizard or a series of emails. We are with you every step of the way from sign-up to continuously helping your shop reach its fullest potential.

Software Training

Finding time for everyone in your shop to get up-to-speed can be hard. You and your team will have unlimited access to join one of our 10+ Bootcamps each week. These are offered across various times each weekday.

Data Migration

You shouldn't have to pay an arm and a leg just to have access to your valuable service history. Tekmetric offers affordable data migration from most shop management systems.

Launch Day

It can take as little as one day to be up and running with Tekmetric. We are there for you as you set up your shop through hypercare - the first 30 days after the launch.

Get Your Team Up to Speed

Whether you’re transitioning your entire shop to a new system or onboarding a new employee, showing a team member how to use your shop management software should be quick and easy. We designed Tekmetric to be as user-friendly as possible. Any user can be trained on Tekmetric in less than two hours, and we offer unlimited access to our easy-to-follow webinars that answer your biggest operational questions. Tekmetric trainers can go inside your business to show your team how our shop management system works, and we also offer screen-share remote training with members of our onboarding team. By the time your shop is ready to launch Tekmetric, every service writer and technician will be an expert.

Hell, you can even connect to dial-up and run Tekmetric without seeing a slow down in operation speed.
