## Reviews

### "Era Ignite Good but not as good as the blue screens" — 4.0/5

> **Paul** | *1 July 2022* | Automotive | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I have used ignite since its release in 2012 \&amp; found it difficult at first but once they started improving it got better I still like the blue screen better.
> 
> **Cons**: Right now I use it mostly for doing inventory jobs and the program seems to be all over the place and hard to find all the features that were grouped under the same function on the blue screens. I also have a customer that has too many old inventories listed and it will not let us delete them which hinders us from doing current inventories.
> 
> the need to go back \&amp; forth between Ignite and blue screens is a pain.

### "EASY ONCE YOU PLAY AROUND WITH IT A WHILE" — 5.0/5

> **REBECCA** | *1 February 2024* | Automotive | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: ONCE YOU FIGURE OUT WHERE EVERYTHING IS, IT BECOMES SECOND NATURE TO DO THINGS IN THE PROGRAM
> 
> **Cons**: THERE ARE A LOT OF TEDIOUS STEPS TO DO ANYTHING
> 
> GOOD, COULD BE A LITTLE MORE STREAMLINED TO GET TO CERTAIN PLACES BUT NOT BAD

### "always busted" — 1.0/5

> **Bob** | *14 July 2022* | Automotive | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
>

### "I Love ReynoldsReynolds" — 5.0/5

> **Jordan** | *8 February 2022* | Automotive | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Excellent easy software to use when you're on R\&amp;R.. Era ignite (blue screen) is a little tougher but the rest of the software is very simple and enjoyable to use\! It's hard to make a mistake using this software as it typically catches any mistakes made on the retail and accounting end\! Thanks for that\!
> 
> **Cons**: Wish it looked more modern, otherwise i have no complaints\!
> 
> Excellent

### "Best Product on the market but too expensive compared to other solutions" — 5.0/5

> **Chad** | *11 December 2021* | Automotive | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It does everything easily - easy to understand, easy to use and learn
> 
> **Cons**: It is too expensive compared to other solutions. We switched to Dealer Track and saved several thousand dollars per month
