5 New Features in Winworks Auto Shop Software That Save Your Shop Time and Money

Running an auto repair business isn’t easy. Between managing work orders, handling customers, and keeping your team productive, you don’t have time to waste. That’s why the latest Winworks Auto Shop Software 9.5 update is packed with features designed to save you time, improve shop efficiency, and keep your bottom line in check.

Here are the top 5 new features shop owners like you will want to take advantage of right now:

1. Add Users or Support Packages Easily

Need to expand your team? Now you can easily add more users to your Winworks system or upgrade your support package without jumping through hoops. This is ideal for growing shops that need more hands on deck—and fast. Better support also means less downtime when you run into issues.

Why it matters: More users = more work done. Enhanced support = less stress when something goes wrong.

2. Recover Credit Card Processing Fees Automatically

The new Merchant Fee Recovery Surcharge allows you to automatically apply a small fee to invoices to cover your payment processing costs—something many shops lose hundreds on every month. This feature helps you pass fees back to the customer where allowed by law.

Why it matters: You keep more of your hard-earned money.

3. Increase shop productivity with the updated Labor Productivity Report

The labor productivity report by technician now includes an option to exclude warranty and no charge services.

Why it matters: More accurate reporting helps you to keep track of shop productivity

4. Search Your Scheduler by Customer Name

Can’t remember when “Bob with the Chevy” is coming in? No problem. The new Scheduler Search by Customer feature lets you search appointments by any part of the customer’s name—no exact match required.

Why it matters: Find appointments in seconds without wasting time clicking around.

5. Show Cost and List Price of Parts in Inventory

Your inventory list can now display both the cost and list price of parts, instead of just part group names. This makes pricing more transparent and helps you stay on top of your margins.

Why it matters: Know what you’re making on every job. No more guesswork.

Final Thoughts

The new 9.5 update from Winworks Auto Shop Software is all about making your life easier and your shop more profitable. If you haven’t upgraded yet, now’s the time. These features are built for real shop owners who need real solutions—fast.
