Why dealerships choose Clearline.
What can Clearline replace?
We bring call answering, call, text and email follow-up, scheduling and reminders, web chat and CRM into one platform. That can replace 4+ separate tools. We help you decide what to consolidate and what to keep.
Which departments does it cover?
We support sales, service, parts and finance. Each department gets its own hours, booking rules and handoffs, with customer history in one place.
How fast can we go live?
We guide your initial launch over seven days, including playbook setup, supported integrations and testing. We confirm the launch scope and required access first. Historical data and additional products can take longer.
Do we have to replace our DMS or CRM?
No. We work alongside supported systems you keep. Your DMS continues handling accounting, parts and repair orders, and you can use our CRM or connect your current one.
What happens when a customer needs a person?
Our agents hand off when the customer asks or your rules call for it. Your team gets the conversation history so they can take over with context.
