ALBANY, N.Y. -

Auto/Mate Dealership Systems announced Monday that Lead Information Systems has integrated its customer relations management and Internet lead management software with the former’s dealership management system.

Dealers who utilize the systems from both companies will benefit from seamless correspondence between the solutions.

“We are proud to add LIS to our Open/Mate partners list so we can better service our dealers and offer them more choices,” said Mike Esposito, AutoMate’s president and chief executive officer. “The Open/Mate program is based on open standards and offers third-party vendors an easy and inexpensive solution to integrate with our DMS.”

Ernie Boch Jr., the chief executive officer and president of LIS and Subaru of New England, believes his lead management system offers a cost-effective alternative.

“LIS developed its system to ensure a simple yet comprehensive interface, giving dealerships the customer accuracy and insights needed on a daily basis,” Boch said.

All data now entered into the LIS lead management system is instantly updated in Auto/Mate’s DMS and vice versa.
