The Frazer alternative

Everything Frazer runs your lot with. Plus the modern website it doesn’t.

Frazer keeps your books and your lot in order — dependably, affordably. But it’s a Windows desktop app with no customer-facing side. CarDealerTool adds the modern web front: a fast, SEO-ready website that ranks and captures leads — cloud-based, all in one login.
