Web-Est Customer: "I just recently bought seven new computers
for my shop, but I can't write estimates because my provider's
collision estimating software isn't compatible with the new
computer technology out there in the market."
Are you a shop owner that has recently bought a new computer or
are thinking about buying a new computer? Are you a shop owner with
a new computer who can't write estimates because your collision
estimating provider doesn't have the technology to match your
computing capabilities? Countless auto shops that have made
technology upgrades have reached out to us to ask if we're able to
provide them with their auto body estimating needs because they're
estimate programs aren't functioning properly. Are you one of those
shops?
Within the last five years or so, technology providers such as
Microsoft, Google and Apple have pushed what's called 64-bit
computer processing to their consumer product line. A computer's
processing technology has to do with its ability to process
information as it performs tasks for its user. Basically, the
higher the bit, the faster it performs its users tasks. The
processing technology that has been dominant for consumer computers
has long been 32-bit, while super-computers and government
computing stations have operated under 64-bit since the 1970's. A
computer with 64-bit technology is able to process information much
faster than 32-bit. With these recent upgrades by the major
technology companies, everyday consumers, like auto body
technicians, are able to perform everyday tasks with the technology
that super-computers have operated under for last 30-40 years.
The problem that occurs, however, is that programs that have
been designed specifically for 32-bit computers are unable to
function properly on the new 64-bit computers that consumers have
been flooding stores to get their hands on. Software providers have
been blindsided by the technology upgrade and have been playing
catch up to get their programs functionable on the new computing
technology.
Collision repair estimating companies are having the same
problems. Estimating providers that are still ancient enough to
operate on disks are the ones still playing catch up. Those
providers have not generated the technology to make their software
compatible with the new 64-bit technology that allow auto body shop
managers and technicians to perform their tasks with greater speed.
In other words...they're slow and behind the technology curve!
Are you a shop owner that has upgraded your computers, yet have
been blind sided by the fact that your estimate provider is not as
technologically advanced as you are? Is your shop now equipped with
the latest computing technology, yet unable to do something as
basic as writing estimates because you're provider is too slow to
provide the proper compatibility?
