NORFOLK, Va. –

Dominion Dealer Solutions announced Monday that it has released its new automotive dealer management system (DMS), Dominion VUE, which is hosted in the Microsoft Azure Cloud.

The new system features an intuitive interface and bank-level encryption that allows dealerships to access all dealer data in real-time from any location without a VPN or remote server, the company said.

“Dominion VUE secures in the Azure Cloud all current and historical dealer data for all rooftops in the business. This creates unique opportunities to analyze, manage and improve business metrics against industry standards,” president of Dominion DMS at Dominion Dealer Solutions Van Koppersmith said in a new release.

Dominion VUE can run on most browsers and device types, and it requires no VPN or associated fees.

In addition to a suite of fully integrated dealer management applications, Dominion VUE also has a STAR-compliant API for third-party integrations, according to the company.

“Dealers have struggled for years on patched DMS programs that mostly frustrate their employees and customers.  In contrast, Dominion VUE provides the first holistic Fixed Ops solution built at one time, on a single platform, with seamless transitions from one step in the operation to the next. And the one-click customization options, even for enterprise-level reporting, allow for targeted, location-specific results,” said Koppersmith.
