The difference

What changes with Garatools

A repair shop loses 1.5 to 2.5 hours a day on calls and follow-ups about vehicle status. Here is what disappears, and what replaces it.

Without Garatools

  • A phone that never stops ringing

    “Is my car ready?” 15 times a day, right in the middle of a job.

  • Cars sleeping in the car park

    Finished, but not collected: a blocked space and an unpaid invoice.

  • Two hours lost every day

    Calling back, reaching voicemail, hunting for a number on a sticky note.

  • Appointments juggled over the phone

    One more call to set a date, a customer calling back to check on their car: the line never goes quiet.

With Garatools

  • Automatic notification

    An email goes out to the customer as soon as you click “Vehicle ready”. You have nothing to write.

  • A dashboard you can read at a glance

    In repair, ready for pickup: your whole workshop fits on one screen, updated in real time.

  • Complete history

    Every status change and every notification sent is logged, and can be reviewed at any time.

  • Your data protected

    Hosted in Europe, never shared or sold. A repair shop only ever sees its own customers.

  • Booking and tracking, on their own

    Your customers book an open time slot online and follow their vehicles from their own portal, without ever picking up the phone.

  • Statistics at a glance

    Revenue, new customers, best-selling parts: your activity at a glance, no spreadsheet required.

Start with Max

The free plan starts without a credit card. If you choose a paid plan, you create your account and then pay immediately through Stripe secure payment. Changing plan and cancelling are available at any time from your account settings. The prices shown are the amounts actually charged: the publisher falls under the VAT exemption scheme for small businesses, so no tax is added.

Comparison

Unlimited at €29, not €120

Garage management software charges for volume: the more vehicles you handle, the more you pay. With Garatools, 100 vehicles cost €10/month and unlimited costs €29. Here is what the equivalent costs elsewhere, plan by plan.

Public prices of competing garage management software, recorded in September 2026. Prices they list excluding VAT are converted to VAT-inclusive prices (21%) so both sides are on the same basis.

Frequently asked questions

Everything worth knowing before you start

Do I need a credit card to get started?

Not for the free plan: it is permanent and requires no credit card. If you choose a paid plan, Stripe secure payment happens right after your account is created — you can also start for free and change plan later from your settings.

How long does it take to get up and running?

Less than two minutes: create your account, log your first vehicle, and you are set. No installation, no mandatory import.

How is the customer notified?

By email, immediately. They receive a clear message with the plate and model of their vehicle as soon as you click “Vehicle ready”.

Can my customers track their vehicles online?

Yes: from the link sent by email, your customer reaches a secure portal where they can see their vehicle history and request, accept, or cancel an appointment.

Can I change plan or cancel at any time?

Yes, with no commitment. Changing plan and cancelling take one click from your settings, at any time.

Is my data — and my customers' data — protected?

Yes. It is hosted in Europe, and no repair shop ever has access to another's data: nothing is shared or sold.
