After extensive research, we selected Advectus to be the database management system (DMS) of choice for our dealership because of its unparalleled features, scalability and ease of use. Not only did Advectus solve all of our data needs, but it has enabled us to streamline business processes, increase efficiency, manage inventory, access real-time information, and eliminate paperwork. Advectus allowed us to customize a solution that fits our specific needs and reduce operational costs. Because…

Pros
  • Ease of Use
  • Scalable - we were able to add users and create their own custom dashboards as needed, easily expand or contract to fit changing business requirements
Cons
  • It does not provide the ability to send emails directly to customers
  • It requires programming skills to modify functionality

We have had a great experience working with Jason, he has been extremely responsive and helpful throughout the entire implementation. He has gone above and beyond to help us get set up properly and is always willing to go above and beyond for us. He is patient and easy to communicate with, and I would recommend him to anyone looking for an IT person! When it came time to upgrade from CentOS 6 to 7, they did everything possible to make sure we were successful during this transition without…

Pros
  • I was impressed with their technical knowledge, they took the time to answer every question I had.
  • Even though this was a short-term engagement, they still kept their communication channels open
  • Communication was clear and concise; when I needed additional assistance or clarification on anything they responded immediately, which allowed me to complete tasks ahead of schedule.
Cons
  • They were great!

As always, there is something to dislike. The product is built from the ground up as a database, with little integration with other applications. There are no reports or dashboards, no ability to create forms. It's difficult to see how this product would meet the needs of a dealership that does not have any significant amount of software currently. I'm an experienced programmer who has used many reporting tools over my career. None come close to the simplicity and power offered by Crystal…

Pros
  • Can generate a good variety of charts including scatter plots, line graphs, bar charts, etc.
  • Has a very intuitive user interface, even for non-developers
Cons
  • No formatting, no form creation, etc.
  • Its charts don't really show anything besides basic values (percentages) and the user has to go through and add the actual values manually.
