Houston, Texas and Spanish Fort, Alabama --  CAR-Research XRM and ADAM Systems today announced that they have jointly developed a data integration application for their common customers.  The real-time integration provides a bi-directional connection between the CAR-Research CRM and the ADAM Systems Dealer Management System (DMS). The application seamlessly exchanges information for dealership customers, vehicle inventory, repair orders, service history, service technicians and parts special orders.  Additionally, desked F&I deals and service appointments can be created in the Car-Research CRM and easily transferred to the ADAM DMS, which saves time and avoids keying errors.
 
“The integration built between these two companies is the best I’ve ever experienced.  No batch processes or routines to run,” stated Robert Alvine, president of Premier Subaru, Premier Kia. “The data exchange works so well it allows more time for my team to focus on serving our customers,” Alvine added.

CAR-Research XRM has developed a proven singular solution that helps an auto dealership run more effectively and proficiently. It is a web-based, comprehensive CRM solution that helps increase revenue from sales and service, improve customer satisfaction index (CSI) and service satisfaction index (SSI), and boost the dealership’s gross profit.

“We’re excited about this integration as the CAR-Research CRM now integrates seamlessly and securely with the ADAM DMS, enhancing the efficiency and productivity of our mutual dealer customers. Adam Systems have a wonderful technical team and have been a pleasure to work with,” said Patrick Kelly, President and COO of CAR-Research XRM.
