GAIN HOURS OF WORK EVERY WEEK

The average workshop takes two hours of calls a day for status updates and appointment bookings – that’s 10 hours lost each week. ZF [pro]Manager helps you gain that time back so you can focus on billable work, while giving your customers the convenience and attention they expect.

One inbox for every conversation

WhatsApp messages, SMS texts, emails – everything arrives in one inbox, seen by the right people, replied to from one screen. See the full conversation history and never lose track of who said what and when.

Online booking that keeps you in control

No more double bookings, missed walk-ins or unplanned gaps. Bookings arrive automatically via your website, social channels, or Reserve with Google. You just accept or reject – it’s totally up to you. The smart calendar does the rest.

More revenue from every customer

Automated booking suggestions sell related services before the car even arrives. Service reminders bring customers back for more. Digital quotes reduce haggling and speed up job approvals. Timely updates build trust that leads to repeat visits and referrals.

Your daily work, fully coordinated

Job cards, real-time status tracking and smart customer profiles make daily work smoother. You can even connect with your existing software and bring everything together: no double entries, no gaps, no tab switching.

Most workshop owners tell us ZF [pro]Manager pays for itself in the first few weeks thanks to the time saved through messaging alone. That's before even counting new revenue from bookings or referrals.

ANSWERS TO COMMON QUESTIONS

ZF [pro]Manager is a booking, customer communication and job management tool built specifically for automotive workshops. It brings together three important functions in one place:

  • a digital booking calendar that takes appointment requests automatically but doesn't fill up unless you allow it to
  • a built-in job planner for organizing and assigning tasks, managing staff workload and tracking daily progress
  • a central inbox for customer messages, automated status updates and digital quote approvals via WhatsApp, SMS or email

The result is fewer interruptions for your team, more time to focus on your daily repair tasks and a smoother experience for your customers.

Booking platforms do one thing – let customers book appointments online. ZF [pro]Manager handles the whole process from booking to vehicle collection: a flexible workload planner to help you manage your day, automatic status updates as the work progresses, digital quote approvals and a central inbox linked to each vehicle and customer covering WhatsApp, SMS and email communication.

And, unlike generic booking tools, ZF [pro]Manager understands workshop realities: service durations, mechanic schedules, vehicle types and more.

Think about how many interruptions your team deals with in a day. The average workshop spends around two hours daily on status calls and appointment requests alone. That's roughly one oil change you could be doing instead, every single day. ZF [pro]Manager helps you reclaim that time so your staff can focus on paying work. On top of that, the smart booking calendar captures appointments even when you can't answer your phone – so you stop losing jobs to competitors who are available online. And automated suggestions at the point of booking upsell additional services before the car even arrives.

ZF [pro]Manager covers everything between a customer's first contact and the vehicle collection notification: booking, communication, repair status tracking, quote approval. Invoicing and billing will be made available in 2026.
