  ### 1. I am a long time super user and administrator of AQ

**Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Bruce S. B. | Regional Group Manager - Food Service Equipment, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

Comprehensive industry standard data, well  organized, easy to use and accurate—functionality tailored to our business.  Spec book docunatiation is speedy and accurate.

**What do you dislike about AutoQuotes?**

Difficult to customize and differentiate us from our competition.  Support service level has dropped dramatically.  There seems to have been a big churn in people.  ERP integration is difficult.

Accuracy  speed and a professional look in our documents. Provides Quality data that helps prepare our procurement documentation.  our team is more productive and has enabled us to increase our business

  ### 2. Improving your sales opportunities using AutoQuotes

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Russell Z. | Product Specialist, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 15, 2022

**What do you like best about AutoQuotes?**

Quickly being able to look up products in the industry, getting and printing spec. sheets, placing into quotations or just keeping up with the current offerings by manufacturers.

**What do you dislike about AutoQuotes?**

Not showing upfront that a product must include a Surcharge. Not being able to list different discounts for various products within a manufacturer's list.  Some items might get 50% off and some within the same manufacturer, might get 50/5% but you can't show different discounts. Removing the AQPolice!  This was a very helpful tool users could use to catch errors and have AQ check with the factory to make corrections.

**What problems is AutoQuotes solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I can generate quotes for small or major projects within hours or days. I can update old quotes instantly with constantly changing prices. I can print a spec sheet for a customer instantly and give them pricing.  AQ is a valuable tool for any dealer in foodservice. Now that few companies are printing catalogs anymore, we could not function without AQ.

  ### 3. My 20+ Great Yrs. With AQ

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Gregory G. | Outside Sales, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 17, 2022

**What do you like best about AutoQuotes?**

I've found AQ to be an invaluable tool in preparing quotes and proposals as well as researching available equipment options to find the best possible items to fit each customer's individual needs.

**What do you dislike about AutoQuotes?**

The only negative that I can think of is that AQ eliminated their "Kitchen Police" program which offered users a $10 reward for any mistake found in equipment descriptions, specs, etc.

**What problems is AutoQuotes solving and how is that benefiting you?**

AQ is a major time saver in specifying equipment and preparing quotes.  Virtually every piece of foodservice equipment on the market, including specs, prices, discounts, and freight estimates is immediately accessable and easily put into a professional-looking proposal.

  ### 4. AutoQuotes Program Review

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Michael M. | Sales - Kitchen Design, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

AutoQuotes is very user friendly and gives you access to many Manufacturers and Suppliers with a broad and diverse range of Foodservice Industry products

**What do you dislike about AutoQuotes?**

There is not much to dislike about AutoQuotes.  There are occasional times when the program sticks or hangs up, but back support is quick.

**What problems is AutoQuotes solving and how is that benefiting you?**

AutoQuotes allows me to quote quickly or offer alternatives.  It can turn a quote into an Invoice in a matter of seconds.  Customers like quick responses to their requests, and AutoQuotes provides me with the tools to adequately provide them with pricing and options

  ### 5. The Best Quoting Software Out There

As a supplier, I find it difficult sometimes to work through configurations. This may be a setup issue.

I send a lot of quotes every day and it keeps them well organized and accessible. I appreciate being able to send the quote file for my customers to import. This saves everyone time and means less room for error.

  ### 6. Going downhill slowly?

**Rating:** 2.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Peter H. | President, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 15, 2022

**What do you like best about AutoQuotes?**

Functionality  , updated  pricing and spec sheets

**What do you dislike about AutoQuotes?**

No longer a simple way to get corrections made since Kitchen Police was dropped and I see more and more mistakes  happening.  I have an URGENT problem that I wrote to support yesterday afternoon and have yet to get a response  in almost 24 hours .  this is an  AQ Mistake that cost me 1000's of dollars!

**What problems is AutoQuotes solving and how is that benefiting you?**

getting quotes and specs to customers quickly

  ### 7. Auto Quotes Review

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Restaurants | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 25, 2021

**What do you like best about AutoQuotes?**

Auto Quotes makes my Life as a Rep super easy! I can quote, match and search products and send info with ease. I like the ability to customize reports.

**What do you dislike about AutoQuotes?**

The only minor things are 1) I don't like not being able to copy and paste customers' information from the Contacts list (sometimes if I am emailing someone new, it is easier to copy and paste rather than try and type it from memory). 2. If creating PO's, it should be easier to copy and paste "Buyer Info" to other fields. Especially if the ship to is different.

**What problems is AutoQuotes solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Auto Quotes is a business enhancement tool for us. We can create complicated quotes in a matter of minutes. When I first started at my job, AQ was new on the scene and we still had a manual Excel Spreadsheet we did quotes on. I have come a long way in productivity because of AQ!

  ### 8. Indispensable Software for the Hospitality Design Professional

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Tami K. | General Manager, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 13, 2021

**What do you like best about AutoQuotes?**

I truly appreciate the access to manufactures specification sheets, cad blocks, and critical utility information.

**What do you dislike about AutoQuotes?**

Unfortunately there seems to be a greater push to have Revit tools, it is the relevent design software, but maintaining CAD blocks for equipment helps ensure a quick and efficient layout to land a sale.  I wish there were more manufactures that supported this aspect of AQ.

**What problems is AutoQuotes solving and how is that benefiting you?**

AQ App allows me to answer quick coordination questions in the field to expedite construction.  I am also able to provide quotes when traveling, as well as answer questions and send reports, invoices, ect. Allowing for better communication throughout the design build process.  Time is my most precious commodity and this program is a huge time saver.

  ### 9. Autoquotes for Sales

Also, I can check for current prices with the discounts rates given to the company I work for.

Sometimes, the prices are not updated, and I have to contact the suppliers.
