Garage CRM that remembers every customer, car and MOT date for you.

Garage CRM software is the system a workshop uses to hold its customer relationships in one place. It keeps a single record for every customer and every vehicle, with the full history of jobs, quotes, invoices and photos attached, so anyone on the team can see what was done last time and what is due next. In Autera that record also drives the retention side: automated MOT reminders go out at the right time to bring the customer back. That is what turns a customer list into a CRM rather than a spreadsheet of names.

Yes. Every customer in Autera has their own record, and every vehicle they own is linked to it. Each job, quote, invoice, payment and photo is filed against both the customer and the vehicle, so the full service history is one tap away. Type a reg and you see the car, the owner and everything you have ever done to it. Nothing lives in a separate spreadsheet or an old technician’s memory.

When you add a vehicle, Autera looks up the registration against DVLA and pulls the current MOT expiry date. As that date approaches, reminders go out to the customer by email automatically (SMS coming soon), under your garage name. Every car you have serviced needs another MOT in twelve months, so this quietly refills the diary from the customer base you already have. MOT reminders are part of the Workshop plan and above.

Yes. Autera has built-in integrations with Xero and QuickBooks, so invoices and customer records can flow through to your accounts rather than being re-keyed. Your bookkeeper works in the tools they already know, and you keep the customer relationship and the job history inside Autera.

Yes. Export a CSV from your current software or spreadsheet, send it over, and we map and reconcile your customers and vehicles into Autera, usually within 48 hours. All data is encrypted in transit and at rest, stored on UK infrastructure, and backed up daily with a 30-day recovery window.
