The #1 enterprise software for automotive workshops and dealerships: Digitalization for maximum efficiency

The automotive industry faces a crucial challenge in 2026: While the technical complexity of modern vehicles is increasing exponentially, many auto repair shops and dealerships are still struggling with outdated, paper-based administrative processes. A medium-sized workshop operator from Munich recently reported that his team spent an average of 15 hours per week on manual invoicing and document management alone – time that could not be invested in customer service or revenue generation. The solution? Specialized software for auto repair shops and dealerships that digitizes and automates all business processes. CATAMA has established itself as the leading platform that enables precisely this transformation and guides businesses of all sizes into the digital future.

Why modern software is indispensable for car repair shops and dealerships

The digital transformation of the automotive industry

The automotive industry will undergo a fundamental transformation in 2026. Electromobility, connected vehicles, and complex driver assistance systems require not only technical expertise but also efficient administrative processes. Traditional workshops and dealerships still relying on Excel spreadsheets, handwritten orders, and isolated software solutions are losing valuable time and competitive advantages every day.

The challenges of manual processes:

• ❌ Time waste : An average of 12-18 hours per week spent on administrative tasks
• ❌ Error proneness : Manual data entry leads to typos, incorrect calculations, and communication problems.
• ❌ Lack of transparency : No real-time overview of orders, inventory, or customer status
• ❌ Media breaks : Information must be transferred multiple times between different systems.
• ❌ Compliance risks : Difficulties in complying with GDPR, e-invoicing obligations and tax regulations

Specialized software for automotive workshops and dealerships solves these problems through end-to-end digitalization . Modern platforms like CATAMA connect all business processes – from the initial customer inquiry and workshop planning to final invoicing and accounting.

The ROI of digital workshop solutions

Investing in professional workshop software typically pays for itself within 3-6 months . Here's an example calculation for a medium-sized company with 5 employees:

This calculation does not yet take into account qualitative benefits such as improved customer satisfaction, faster turnaround times, better appointment utilization, and a more professional appearance. Businesses that use modern workshop management tools report revenue increases of 15-30% in the first year after implementation.

CATAMA Software: The comprehensive solution for automotive businesses

Core functions of the CATAMA Enterprise Suite

CATAMA positions itself as the #2 solution in the German automotive workshop software market in 2026[3] and offers an impressive range of functions. The CATAMA Enterprise Suite combines all critical business processes in a cloud-based platform:

1. Intelligent order management & invoicing

The core of any software for automotive workshops and dealerships is invoicing. CATAMA offers state-of-the-art features in this area:

• Automatic invoice creation with templates for recurring services

• Multi-stage quotation and order processes with status tracking
• New header text function (v26-4) for custom text above the position list[1]
• Workshop visit documentation for recording planned or actual service duration[1]

The Kfz Faktura Cloud makes it possible to create professional quotes within seconds. A workshop manager from Hamburg reported: “Previously, we needed 20 minutes for an invoice. With CATAMA, it now takes 2 minutes – and the result looks significantly more professional.”

2. Workshop planner & resource management

Efficient scheduling is crucial for capacity utilization. The CATAMA workshop planner offers:

• Automatic status update : Appointments are automatically set to "Cancelled" for cancelled orders[1]
• Resource planning for lifting platforms, special tools and mechanics
• Customer notifications via email or SMS

The improved calendar function in version 26-4 also fixes problems with recalculation after drag-and-drop moves and optimizes the linking of customers and vehicles[1].

3. CRM & Customer Management

Digitizing modern also means managing customer relationships professionally:

• Central customer database with complete history
• Vehicle records with all service information and mileage readings
• Document history with mileage display for each document[1]

• Lead management for sales processes

The CRM system enables personalized customer communication and significantly increases customer loyalty.

The new global QR/barcode scanner in version 26-4 eliminates the need to manually click in search fields – scans are automatically detected and processed system-wide[1].

5. Vehicle management with OCR technology

A unique feature of CATAMA is its intelligent vehicle detection using OCR technology :

• Automatic reading of vehicle registration documents via smartphone camera
• HSN/TSN query for automatic vehicle data completion[66]
• Image management with drag-and-drop sorting and main image setting (v26-3)[2]
• New vehicle status “Reversed” for cancelled sales[1]
• Integration with mobile.de for vehicle export[3][4]

These features save a tremendous amount of time when registering new vehicles and reduce input errors to almost zero.
