TARGIT (targit.com) is a Denmark-headquartered business intelligence and analytics software company that provides specialized BI reporting solutions for automotive dealerships, including its TARGIT Automotive division (formerly CalmCo, acquired in 2022 and fully integrated in 2024). The platform consolidates data from dealership DMS, CRM, accounting, and other systems into a cloud-hosted data warehouse, delivering automated reports and dashboards covering vehicle sales, aftersales, finance, parts, and fixed operations. In July 2025, TARGIT was acquired by Forterro, a European industrial software provider, marking Forterro's first BI acquisition.
What you do with it
consolidate all dealership data into a single automated reporting and dashboard platform, so they can make timely, informed decisions from one source of truth instead of chasing down siloed reports
When a dealer group is juggling fragmented data across multiple DMSs, CRMs, accounting tools, and HR systems
track KPIs by department, monitor sales pipeline, profit margins, and bonuses in one view, so they can run the business on facts rather than gut feelings or vendor-supplied reports
When a GM or dealer principal needs visibility into performance across departments and locations
access a faster, better-integrated alternative to legacy or marketing-focused analytics platforms, so they can gain deeper operational insights competitive with larger dealer groups
When a smaller dealer group or independent operator needs a BI solution without enterprise complexity
Community evidence → Stable
DealerRefresh community exposure to Targit is limited and early-stage, with the vendor appearing primarily through a RefreshFriday webcast hosted by Alex Caradonna and brief mentions in discussions about emerging BI alternatives. The tone is cautiously positive — Targit is acknowledged as a legitimate entrant targeting data consolidation pain points that dealers genuinely feel. However, there is no substantive community feedback from dealers who have deployed the product in a U.S. context, and mentions are descriptive rather than experiential. The most concrete signal is that Targit is named alongside other fast-moving alternatives for smaller dealers and independent groups, suggesting it occupies a 'one to watch' position rather than an established reputation within this community.
