    Compare the complete cost, not the starting price

    Confirm per-location basis, contract term, message allowances and what happens to your data and website if you cancel.

    Use the same job in both demonstrations

    1. Create a representative unit and repair, including mileage/engine hours where relevant, inspection photos and an estimate revision.
    2. Assign two technicians, issue an in-stock part, order a missing part and capture labor across more than one day.
    3. Obtain a sample customer authorization, complete an invoice and reconcile the payment or fleet statement without sending a live request.
    4. Export the completed history and an open repair. Confirm attachments, accounting totals, permissions and contract exit terms.

    Frequently asked

    Is ShopGenie better than Tekmetric?

    It depends on your shop. ShopGenie (Tekmetric / Shopmonkey style SMS) and Tekmetric (Cloud-based auto repair shop management) serve different needs. Confirm current pricing and features with each vendor; Repairius does not verify third-party prices.

    Can I use Repairius alongside ShopGenie or Tekmetric?

    You can keep other services while using Repairius. Repairius offers a free basic listing and website with booking requests; advanced management tools require the appropriate paid plan. This does not imply an integration with either vendor or guarantee inquiry volume.

    Can I replace both with one tool?

    It depends on what you use each one for. Repairius combines a free directory listing with booking requests and, on a paid plan, dispatch, estimates and invoicing. Some shops keep ShopGenie or Tekmetric alongside Repairius — compare your current contracts before cancelling anything.
