Inventory Website Software for small dealer

[umer.autojini]

I didn't see anyone mention Dealerclick.com. My son has a small dealership and is looking into them. Any advice?

DealerClick be more like Frazer, InnovativeDealer more of a DMS... ish...

Some other web platform alternatives... V12 Software, Dealer Front.

Hello everyone,

i'm see myself as a complete newbie, but managed to get myself into one and my first location(no prior car sale experience) with 3-11 cars.

we dont have website yet

Looking for inexpensive solution for a main goal to have free account with CarGurus and get my inventory feed there even before our website is up and running. Appraisal and Pricing/Auction pricing tools is also being a struggle-any recommendation/knowledge would great appreciated.

Anyone had a experience with lotwizard.com/Friday Systems? they seem to advertise solution that i'm looking for $40 bucks per month gets me Inventory/Dealer Portal with Feeds to third party car advertisers such as CarGurus.
Let me know if there is other inventory systems that are compatible with feed export to CarGurus or other solutions/ways to have the inventory featured on CarGurus.

i'm also looking for Website vendors, Appraisal and Pricing, finance companies and lenders vendors recommendations from someone who has a small independent dealership.

I apologize in advance for hijacking this forum thread as this is my first post.

Thank you in advance!!

Many of the independent dealers that I work with use Carsforsale.com and seem happy. They will also feed inventory to major 3rd party websites.

Auto Corner.

For an inexpensive website that has lots of features, nothing compared for me.

They will customize the general look of the site for you...so your website doesn't look exactly like every other affordable solution out there.

Their mobile site is more of an "App", but it is really fast and handles what is important.

It is something like $35 or $50 per month.

For that price, it's not a bad option, as long as it get the used inventory out there.

I agree completely. It is much better than no website.

Saw this thread while looking into small-dealer inventory options — the CarGurus feed + tight budget situation is a really common starting point, so wanted to add an option that wasn't in the original replies.

Disclosure: I built a WordPress plugin for exactly this, so this is a vendor answer.

If you already have (or are open to) a WordPress site, you don't need a monthly inventory-hosting service just to keep listings current. Automotive Inventory Importer reads your DMS or export feed (XML or CSV — works with Frazer, DealerClick, and most others that export a flat feed) and syncs it into WordPress on a schedule automatically. No monthly SaaS fee stacked on top of your DMS, and you're not locked into one provider's inventory system to own your own site.

Free tier handles up to 25 vehicles, which covers a 3–11 car lot completely: Car Dealer Inventory Sync For WordPress — Any DMS Feed

Worth noting this solves the WordPress side specifically — for pushing that same feed to CarGurus, you'd still want a separate syndication tool or CarGurus' own feed intake, this doesn't replace that.
