Vin Decoder

[Juls]

OK everyone, I need a little help here. We are looking at making some changes with the pictures we are getting for our used inventory. If we make a change that will also mean loosing the company that does the vin decoding for us. Can any one suggest a good company to use for vin decoding?
Thanks....Julie

Julie,

I haven't seen a standalone VIN decoder in a while--most everyone has that integrated into The Place Where They Put Their Photos To Push Out To The Internet. In our case, that's eBizAutos (which I find to have great support). You'll probably want to research those two things as a package.

VINpower by ESP Data Solutions is the one our company uses. Search google and it will be your first hit.

HomeNet user here. Nothing but praise from me. Best in class VIN decoding, inventory management, hosting and distribution. 5stars to their customer service team too!

Be sure you put them on your call list.

Would that be via Data Cube or dataone?

+1 on Homenet. One of the best full service inventory management solutions out there. Used by AutoTrader, Dealer.com, etc. Can you have your photos for used be taken and pull new directly from your DMS? Homenet is great with integrating all the different data sources too.

Autobase uses our data for Vehicle and VIN Decoding. They also started using our Service Schedules data in September.

Julie,
For a dealership looking to decode inventory through an API I would suggest our VIN Decoder API Web Service. We have many dealers who have used this product to power an in-house solution.
