All-makes and models ‘Digital-Servicebook’ launches in UK for independent garages

Garages urged to stop sharing data with main dealers and save time with innovative new service history platform

All-makes and models ‘Digital-Servicebook’ launches in UK for independent garages

Independent garages in the UK will soon be able to log vehicle servicing data into a single all-makes and models digital service portal, specifically developed for the automotive aftermarket.

Chief commercial officer at Digital-Servicebook, Henrik Pedersen said: “Time is money.

“Maybe you already know it, but do you live by it?

“Independent garages in the UK will soon be able to benefit from registering service at one platform on all makes and models while saving time and money.”

Digital-Servicebook, which is being launched in the UK, offers garages an alternative to vehicle manufacturer systems.

Currently technicians have to log vehicle service data on each individual vehicle manufacturer’s service portal, taking up to 15 minutes to complete per service.

Now though – Digital-Servicebook – means garages can update the digital service history of any vehicle in less than a minute.

The portal is approved by vehicle manufacturer warranties and backed with full legal support for ‘pro’ users.

100 per cent warranty approved service documentation

Henrik Pedersen added: “In the countries we currently operate in, Digital-servicebook.com, has set the standard for the way service documentation is done in the free aftermarket.

“Our goal is to provide a trouble free and easy environment for technicians to enter their service documentation, so that they can spend their time on what they should be doing, instead of losing time on the main dealers’ site.

“And we do of course back up our documentation with 100 per cent manufacturer warranty approval.”

For a successful warranty claim, vehicle manufacturers demand consumers to correctly document their service history.

To upload service history via Digital-Servicebook, technicians simply enter the data via an app or on the website via a computer, tablet or smart phone.

Garage customers will then be given access to the warranty-approved documentation online.

Henrik Pedersen, chief commercial officer at Digital-Servicebook.

Henrik added: “What many garages owners forget is that by using a vehicle manufacturer’s service portal, they are effectively handing over crucial information about their customer.

“All of the data you enter can be seen by the main dealers.

“It’s time to cut the cord and stop sharing customer data with your competitors.”

Digital-Servicebook advises independent garages to offer a unique service and to grow and retain their customer base.

The platform offers a service which allows garage customers to “see and prove” all aspects of a vehicle service.

A lot of main dealers do not allow car owners to see their service history, Digital-Servicebook say.
