Dealer Plate, Inc. began in Minneapolis, Minnesota in 1988.  Celebrating over two decades in business, we offer outstanding customer support and a dedication to provide our clients with software of the highest quality. 

STRENGTH:  Our software is written in a time-tested and trusted software language used by governments and large corporations.

KNOWLEDGE:  Written by people who have been designing software for over 25 years.  This experience is invaluable when it comes to the issues that can arise in an ever-changing software and hardware environment. 

SECURITY and RELIABILITY:  Dealer Plate software resides on your computer, it is not Internet based.  Although it is true that it would be more convenient for us if our software products were Internet based, we feel it is important that you are not relying on the availability of the Internet to do business at any given time.  However, for custom programming, whether or not the software is Internet based is up to the client.

COST EFFECTIVE:  From inception, Dealer Plate, Inc. has brought high quality software and support to its client base.  Cost effective software products that help you to work smarter.  And in our current economy, our clients greatly appreciate our dedication to maintaining sensitive pricing without sacrificing quality.  This also returns a high market share.  A win for our clients and us.  And that brings up a good point, we actually disclose our pricing, call us for a consultation. 

COMMITMENT:  Just like any retail business, we have to be financially responsible.  We effectively manage our overhead.  We are not encumbered with loans to cover payroll, fund research, development, equipment, etc.  Dealer Plate, Inc. is debt free, giving you the comfort in knowing that Dealer Plate, Inc. will never go out of business as the result of poor financial management.  Dealer Plate software has been sold since 1988, and we are dedicated to continue to support our fantastic clients for a long time to come. 

We pride ourselves on our reputation for high customer satisfaction.  Meeting expectations is our business, exceeding them is our goal.

"I have been using dealer plate software for over a year.  Prior to that I used another software far more expensive and no where near as good.  They are very pleasant to deal with and are always there when I need them, but I very seldom need them because the software runs so smooth."

"… In the past 40 years or so, I have worked with several packaged programs, new, revised, or updated, and have never found one that, when installed, it work perfectly, until we got Dealer Plate. Since we have been involved with Dealer Plate, there have been 3 or 4 up grades to the program. You have always willingly helped install the changes and they have always worked.

I don't know much about programming, but do know enough to know that some changes can change areas in the total package that seem unrelated. It takes a great deal of testing to make sure that intended changes do not make unintended changes.

The Dealer Plate program staff are to be congratulated for their efforts. Many thanks for a good job."

"I cannot stress enough how important it is to have helpful and knowledgeable people to help me if I have a problem, the people at Dealer Plate are the most helpful and know their product in great detail, I have never gone away confused or not helped in anyway, they have my business for life."

"I love my Dealer Plate."

"I should have purchased an update a long time ago.  Wow, the new version has a ton of changes.  Do you know how much time this is going to save me!" [From a Full-Use License client (not on subscription), who purchased an update to the current version.]

"Finally we found a software program that you can see was written by Dealers for Dealers.  The others were just databases massaged to try to do the job.  It is great to just click on a button and print your forms or whatever you want to do.  We are telling everyone about Dealer Plate.  We love it."

"You guys are the greatest.  And you have really, really helped my business.  I couldn't do it without you."

"We left (suppress software name) because we discovered that their software was not alerting us to an issue with our rent to own sales that now has us in a position that will cause us a lot of problems with the state.  We trusted them because they said their software did rent to own, they charged a lot of money and have been in business a long time.  Wish we had known about Dealer Plate before we signed up with (suppress software name)."

"Having up-to-date, actual costs are one of the most important details in our business.  This program does exactly that."

"Thank you for getting our new finance contract programmed so quickly.  Your customer service is the best out there."

"We started using Dealer Plate after we were audited and found that our old software's accounting system was not actually designed for our business, even though they advertised that they integrated with that system."

"You are the only program that we found that actually discloses your pricing!" 

"Your amazing customer support deserves an award!  Over the years, we have been grateful for how hard you work for us.  And I hear that (their referral) loves Dealer Plate, too.  Thank you."

"This program has increased our productivity by 50%.  Our business is high volume and the program handles it easily."

"We have an exact idea of where we are in a vehicle, this program takes the guess work out.  And when we first started using the program, we had very little computer experience and found it easy to use the program.  It saves so much time.  It took a 40-hour person and freed up 25 hours of his work week!"

"When I first started using this program I had zero computer experience.  The program was very easy to use, and the manual was easy to find the answers."

"I love using the onscreen worksheets with my customers.  They have increased my profit margins, and closing ratios.  Thank you!"

"Just wanted to let you know that we received the new version.  Very slick, we love it."

"I love using Dealer Plate.  I find I am actually working smarter.  Thank you."

"I have had to pay a lot for tech support for other software and they didn't even help me.  And you don't charge for your help.  Thanks for the great customer service."

"Got the fax you sent with the details.  You always go the extra mile.  Thanks."

"We originally went with another program that didn't provide the customer support, or keep updating like you do.  Glad we are now using Dealer Plate."
