Garage management software for 3–8 bay UK independents.
Built for the front desk. Clear for the owner.
The system your whole team will actually use: the front desk flies through bookings and job cards while the phones ring, techs fill in health checks on the tablet without a fight, and you see where the day stands without staying till 8pm. Switching is done for you. Up and running in days, not months.
The real cost of "good enough"
You opened a garage to fix cars, not fight paperwork.
Paper job cards, WhatsApp groups, or a legacy system that makes you retype the same invoice twice. The result is the same. Hours of unnecessary admin, a stressed front desk, and an owner still sat at the laptop at 8pm.
- 2–3 hours every evening
-
You're still at the laptop after the kids are in bed, retyping invoices and chasing authorisations that should have been sorted during the day.
- "Which notebook was it in?"
-
Customer phone numbers on post-its. Part receipts in overall pockets. Job cards buried under other job cards.
- The phone rings. Again.
-
Whoever answers it already knows the answer, but finding it in the current system takes longer than the customer is willing to wait.
New to this, or weighing up your options? See how garage management software for independent UK garages gives you smoother days, not another system to babysit.
"I think about work 28 hours a day, 9 days a week."
That's who we built GarageRevs for. Job cards, invoicing, reminders and the front desk in one place, so the garage stays at the garage when you go home.

No chaos during the switch
We handle the switch. You keep the workshop running.
The biggest reason garages stay on bad systems is not loyalty. It is fear. Fear of losing customer data. Fear of the first week where you're babysitting the front desk instead of working. Fear of the whole place grinding to a halt while everyone learns a new system.
We understand that fear. Most straightforward switches, off paper, a diary or spreadsheets, are up and running in a couple of days, with your first professional branded invoice out on day one. Coming from an older system with years of data to untangle? We plan the move with you, and even the messiest migrations are done inside 14 days. You will know your timeline before you pay a penny.

We do not send you a login and wish you luck. We personally:
- 1 Map your current workflow
- So we understand exactly how your garage operates today.
- 2 Import your customers and vehicles
- Your customers, vehicles and history come with you.
- 3 Configure your system
- Branding, VAT settings, labour rates, communication templates.
- 4 Train your service advisor directly
- So the person answering the phones is confident from day one.
- 5 Support you through go-live
- So you are never left alone during the critical first days.
And if it still doesn't work for you?
Our 90-day money-back guarantee means that if within 90 days you genuinely feel GarageRevs is not right for your operation, you get every penny back and we will help you export your data cleanly. No lock-in tactics. No exit fees. No £6,000 invoices.
Receptionist-first design
Built for the person who runs the front desk.
The owner buys the software. The receptionist decides if the garage keeps it. GarageRevs is designed receptionist-first. Faster lookups, cleaner job cards, and automated reminders that stop your phone ringing with questions you've already answered.
"Is anyone else in the trenches right now with the phones? I honestly dread them ringing."
Frequently asked questions
Have a different question and can't find the answer you're looking for? Book a 15-minute demo and we'll answer it directly.
- How does pricing work?
- Plans start at £150 a month, about a fiver a day, and the pricing is public. No per-user fees, no hidden costs, no "book a call to find out". SMS, VRM, and other usage-based features come with fair limits that scale with your plan.
- How long does it take to set up?
- Most garages are up and running in a day or two. If there's legacy data to bring over, allow a few days more, worst case two weeks. We'll tell you your realistic timeline on the demo call, before you commit.
- Will it work with my accounting software?
- Yes. GarageRevs connects directly with Xero and QuickBooks. Your invoices sync automatically.
- Do I need to train my staff?
- No, we do that. We train the person who runs your front desk one-to-one before you go live, so they're confident from day one. Clean, simple design that just makes sense. No babysitting needed.
- What if I need help?
- UK-based phone support when you need it. Real people who understand garages, not chatbots.
- Is there a free trial?
- No. You pay from day one, and you get a full 90 days to change your mind. If GarageRevs is not right for your garage, you get every penny back and we help you export your data cleanly.
