Mobile Service Sync vs. OrbisX

OrbisX reads a VIN barcode or a photo of a plate. Ours looks the vehicle up from the plate and state, including when the customer types it at booking.

Type a plate and state and the VIN, year, make, model, trim and engine fill in, and a VIN decodes the same way. It works in the office, in the tech app, and on your booking page, where the customer types their own plate. Oil weight and capacity are saved on the vehicle, so the next visit starts with them.

A detailing day is a route, and the order of the stops decides how many you fit in.

Drag jobs onto a tech, then one click sequences that tech's stops on real Mapbox drive times. Every van's stops sit on one map, and moving a stop to another van is one drag. When the margin is the drive between driveways, this is the screen that pays for the software.

OrbisX sends texts through Twilio, Dialpad or Quo, billed by them or in credits. Here texting comes with the plan.

Two-way texting threaded into each customer, registered for A2P 10DLC, with photos both ways. 1,000 texts a month on Core, 5,000 on Growth, 10,000 on Pro.

Your chemicals and supplies ride in the vans, so we count them per van.

Oil, filters and parts are counted per van and per shop location, come off the van's count when the job is completed, and the tech app shows what is on board with a restock request.

At OrbisX, fleet means tracking your own vans by GPS. Here it means the dealerships and fleets you service.

Each fleet carries its own pricing, its PO-required rule and net-15 or net-30 terms, applied every time it books. On Growth and Pro the fleet manager gets a portal: every vehicle, what is coming due, service requests that land with your dispatcher, and a roster they can export.

Fleet lots and parking garages lose signal. The tech app here keeps working when they do.

The day's jobs download to the phone. In a parking garage or a dead zone, job status, inspections with photos, mark complete, line items, cash and check payments and the time clock all still work, then sync when the signal comes back, stamped with the time they were tapped.
