## Reviews

### "Best system for the price." — 5.0/5

> **Christopher** | *2 December 2025* | Automotive | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: This is the best value for the money I’ve spent. There isn’t anything out there at beats the price. A management system, digital inspection, texting, repair information and a customer retention management tool for less than $500 per month I just can’t beat it and neither can anyone else. Super easy to navigate. It’s secure, I use the dvi feature for mobile access and it works.
> 
> **Cons**: It’s kind of stuck on my computer. I use mobile manager to write new ROs in the parking lot but there are times I wish I could just pop open my phone and use it online and not be tied to a computer.
> 
> It’s easy to install and get running within and hour which was awesome. The rep shows up in person and if I need to call I can even after hours.

### "Manager SE Review" — 5.0/5

> **Jameson** | *21 August 2025* | Telecommunications | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The standout features of Mitchell 1’s Manager SE shop management software include its ease of use and comprehensive functionality for auto repair shops. I found it secure and easy to access the information and repair status I needed in a timely manner. I never had any bugs or issues while using the system and found the customization additions came in handy. My shop found value for the money as it was more cost effective than other solutions. A mobile access app would be a nice addition.
> 
> **Cons**: Limited mobile access features. An app would make the system more versatile for technicians and shop owners to be able to access info on the phone vs lugging a laptop around.

### "Not Fun. You're on your own if you have a problem" — 1.0/5

> **Caleb** | *2 March 2026* | Automotive | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: When the software isn't frozen it works ok. The labor guides where easy access even though they where often times wrong
> 
> **Cons**: Billing department is impossible to get a hold of. I wanted to ask about some issues I was seeing on statements and have been on hold for 2 hours. I spent 1.5 hours on hold Monday before I had to give up. 2 hours the next day. I've left a message with the billing department manager several times now and still have not received a response. At this point I want to cancel my services and cant because no one apparently has the ability to do anything to your account. Well unless you want to buy more services. They are all over taking your money but do nothing if you have a billing issue apparently.
> 
> The people that work for the company are ok the software when working is ok. But if you have an actual issue with anything you're going to be on your own

### "Maintaining our consulting fleet on the road." — 5.0/5

> **Brian** | *31 January 2026* | Legal Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The mobile access amenities enable me to monitor the position of our company fleet vehicles when I am out on an appointment with clients so that no appointment is missed.
> 
> **Cons**: This learning curve is very steep to my administrative department and sometimes we have bugs and problems when attempting to integrate it with our accounting software.
> 
> Time is money in our consulting firm. I use it to operate our transport logistics. It is not very expensive yet the interface seems a little bit outdated.

### "M1 added value and efficiency to my shop" — 5.0/5

> **Camila** | *30 October 2025* | Automotive | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Mitchell1 has been a great addition to my shop. Switching to this system saved me money and it has so many amazing features. Your rep comes to you to teach you everything you need to know, you can keep an eye on all your repairs at the shop, you can use their ProDemand on the phone\! It has improved our team efficiency at the shop
> 
> **Cons**: There isn't much to criticize here about M1. Maybe if I had to say something, I wish the design on the software itself was a bit better.
> 
> Amazing experience so far, just recently switched so there is still plenty of features I am getting used to but I have my rep if I have any difficulties\!
