We're not for the main dealers
No bloated big-company software. Pistonlog is built for independent garages
that answer to their customers, not head office.
More billed. Less admin.
Approvals
They see the photo and approve the work. No phone call, no chasing.
Reminders
MOT and service reminders go out while you are under a car and help fill next week.
Invoicing
Invoices come off the jobcard, not your kitchen table.
Features that work for you
Built around technicians, not extra work
Every job on one board
The whole workshop at a glance. Jobs move from booked in to collected, and everyone knows what's next without asking.
