"CDK in a car dealership"
What do you like best about CDK?

I really enjoy all of the aspects you can choose from on CDK. There are so many things that you can pick and choose from to make your dealership easier to work with. You can check a guest in, work on there paperwork and check them out all very easily. We have it set up where we can see all of our appointments and if someone doesn't show up or check in there appointment becomes bolded which then means our call center will call the guest and see if they have to reschedule there appointment for another day. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CDK?

There isn't much I dislike about CDK but one thing that I dislike about it is sometimes there are malfunctions and then it confuses everyone and sometimes it doesn't work. Another thing that I dislike about CDK is that when you want to exit you have to "leave" every tab and it would be just easier if you could just close out everything with just one click.
