DALLAS and FORT MYERS, Fla. -

Two more dealership service providers became part of the CDK Global Partner Program, which provides its partners with access to a diverse CDK ecosystem through the ability to integrate with a range of CDK applications, as well as with CDK dealer and third-party websites.

The two newest additions to come on board Tuesday include Arcade, a software company engaging people across workforces, and Volie, creators of communication software for the automotive industry.

Founded in 2015, Arcade leverages gamification and other technology to enable companies to increase employee performance, productivity and engagement across their workforce and teams.

Through Arcade’s all-in-one, innovative solution, companies can implement rewards, recognition, contests and other programs via any smartphone, tablet or other device, as well as streamline communication and staff training.

The company’s participation in the CDK Global Partner Program brings Arcade to dealers seeking to increase productivity, employee retention and other benefits.

“We’re thrilled that automotive dealers that run on CDK around the world will now have access to Arcade through the CDK Global Partner Program,” Arcade chief revenue officer Andre Riley said in a news release.

“We know how challenging it can be for these organizations to engage employees and drive productivity, particularly across multiple locations and teams. Arcade provides a solution,” Riley continued.

Meanwhile, Volie’s BDC-in-a-box can is designed to enable call centers and dealers to run their operations more profitability. The solution can allow dealers to run very granular campaigns that target their highest priorities. This integration speeds up the process as they no longer have to go back and forth between CDK and Volie.

Volie’s integration with the dealer’s DMS also can allow the dealer’s BDC to use DMS data to build sales and service campaigns, and the campaign engine ensures there are no duplicate customers across all marketing initiatives.

“We are very excited to be part of CDK’s Global Partner Program. This data integration will enable Voile’s BDC in a Box to power sales and service BDC’s for many of North America’s best dealers,” Volie president and co-founder Scott Davis said in another news release.

“Our mission is to deliver software people love to use and make it easy to communicate with their customers. This integration helps improve the process for our CDK dealers,” Davis continued.

In each news release, Dave LaGreca, senior vice president and general manager of Fortellis and Data at CDK Global, described what it means to add these two service providers into the program.

“We’re very pleased to introduce Arcade as the newest member of the CDK Global Partner Program,” LaGreca said. “Arcade is a welcomed addition.

“We’re pleased to introduce Volie as the newest member of the CDK Global Partner Program,” LaGreca continued. “Volie is a welcome addition to our vibrant program that provides dealers with a range of partner choices and the assurance that their programs can be seamlessly integrated with our applications.”
