We use CDK for FI, Accounting and our Service Dept. Everything stays as up-to-date as necessary but stays consistent. The Ease of Use is and Integrations with their CRM is always smooth. use this program daily and rarely experience system issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
No issues here! The outage was a terrible set back this year but we recouped as quickly as we could and they handled the outage as professionally as possible. I do wish that it would integrate with other CRMs, more specifically hubspot. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The DMS is great for parts and service and has a large capacity for integration volume. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It is not user-friendly for accounting and requires multiple steps for the basics. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The intergration between departments. The executive desktop is easy to use when you want a quick overview of your stores. The drill downs are very heplfull in all applications. Being able to push to excel easily is helpful. DSDA is wonderful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The reporting is lacking in many areas. Not being able to get yesterdays departmental sales numbers in one report is upsetting. F&I not being able to sell mulitple products and being able to report on them, everything is lumped into the WEO screen and is not user friendly. Having no solution for selling Accessories on the sales floor as part of the deal is unacceptable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
CDK is my absolute favorite DMS to work on. I have worked on others and none are as easy to use as CDK. CDK allows you to dial into any account you are looking out, so you dont have to go to multiple screens, you can see where the data came from, just by double clicking on an account or amount.
Financial reporting is also very nice to use, you can double click any account to see what accounts all belong in that line, as you know, there are a lot more accounts then lines on the financial, so you can have multiple accounts in one, and to get the accurate details Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is a lot I dislike about CDK drive and now that there are more approved vendors with our manufacturer I am looking to possibly move away from cdk. I dislike the prices they charge. The convoluted invoices with little explanation of what they are for. I dislike the proprietary printers that cost 10 times what a normal printer costs and the fact you have to buy paper from them at a large premium. I dislike how there is no representative to talk to, and the program needs an update. Also I need to purchase another program that aggregates data from CDK to generate web based financial reports. I don't know why CDK cannot do that in a simple way. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Once you learn it, quick and easy. Manages a large amount of data efficiently. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It can be difficult to learn. You have to learn "where" the data you want is stored. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
CDK provides just about anything you can think of for our service department. Whatever we do not have, CDK offers that as well. Whatever your dealership needs, you can find it with CDK. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The only real downside is any add-on will cost money. Nothing is really able to be added without a charge being involved. CDK is the best product I have found, so the money is worth it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
