Frazer DMS

Frazer DMS: Frazer describes its DMS as dealer management software for independent dealers, and says it has served independent car dealers since 1985. The company's product pages describe versions or configurations for automotive, powersports and RV dealerships, so one vendor supports several retail categories.

Frazer DMS: Frazer DMS

One dealership database drives the system. Frazer's pages list inventory management, desking and sales processing, forms, financing workflows, a full accounting suite, customer relationship management and reporting as parts of the product.

They say the software supports cash, finance and Buy Here Pay Here transactions.

Buy Here Pay Here is a distinguishing area. Frazer's material lists in-house financing accounts, collections and payment tracking among its features, which matters to independent dealers who carry their own notes.

A franchised store would typically look for different capabilities, such as manufacturer reporting. So the product is most naturally read as an independent-dealer system.

Inventory tools include VIN decoding to save data entry time when a vehicle is added to stock. The company also says the software includes a large library of forms, which covers the paperwork a dealer files for a sale, a finance contract or a title transaction.

State requirements for these forms vary, so a dealer should ask how they are updated.

Frazer describes integrations with finance and marketing providers, such as lender portals, inventory syndication and websites. It publishes a products page and a pricing page on its own site.

Independent review sites including SelectHub, Software Advice and Software Finder list it too. DealerRefresh, a dealer forum, has threads in which dealers discuss the product, which some buyers read to hear from peers.

The evaluation questions for an independent dealer are: how the accounting module handles floorplan interest and month-end, how BHPH collections and repossession workflows are handled, how the DMS connects to the state's title and registration systems, whether it is hosted or installed locally, and how support is provided. Frazer's own site answers some of these, and a demo can settle the rest.

Frazer says it has made dealer software for independent used-car dealers since 1985. It says it provides the system to over 19,000 dealers in all 50 states.

The software handles inventory, desking, forms, financing and Buy Here Pay Here accounts.

A hosted version keeps the database on a secure cloud server that Frazer manages. Frazer also has a mobile app called Sidekick.

A dealer would ask what the hosted price includes.
