About Us

 

Auto-IT Pty Ltd is an Australian owned and operated software developer and marketer, servicing the automotive, trucking, agriculture and construction equipment industries with specialised dealer management software systems that operate retail dealerships.

The company was formed in 2000 as a result of a merger between two respected dealer management software system suppliers, KGM Management and Newmans Information Services.

Auto-IT employs 70 staff and is the second largest dealer management system supplier in Australia and New Zealand.

Our experienced staff has more than 30 years of combined industry experience. Most have worked in dealerships in a variety of roles, as well as in IT, software development, finance and management positions. They know and understand the key factors that drive a successful dealership and have translated those factors into sophisticated and highly effective software systems that are instrumental in our clients’ ability to operate their dealerships at peak performance levels.

Our clients’ success during the past 30 years has helped to drive our own business growth. More than 10,000 licensed users in over 800 dealer locations currently use our software systems in locations as wide apart as Australia, New Zealand, USA, Canada, Singapore, Malaysia, Brunei, Fiji, and South Africa.

As at January 2008, Auto-IT Pty Ltd’s average monthly growth rate, based on last year’s figures, was 250 new licensees of its software products per month. With offices in Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, Kuala Lumpur and Wellington, and Channel Partners in South Africa and the Asia Pacific region, Auto-IT is in a strong position to further expand the business.
