It Gives Dealers Total Control and Visibility Across Departments
Dealerships don’t run in silos. Sales feed service. Service feeds parts. Parts feed retail. Rentals and storage add even more complexity.
Lightspeed ties it all together.
“I’ve been using Lightspeed for about 13 years. I don’t know what I’d do running my business without it—it makes me more efficient, makes my guys in control, and we love it.”
— Brett Parris, Parris RV
Control is exactly what modern dealerships need. Real‑time data, clean reporting, and an integrated platform mean owners and managers never have to guess what’s happening behind the scenes.
Across industries, dealers see the same value.
“We use Lightspeed for our inventory management… for our slip rentals… and even for our retail store. We really, really love the way that it integrates all these processes at once. It makes everything super smooth and easy.”
— Robert Rolando, Sportsman Marina
From RV to powersports to marine, integration is the difference between a dealership that reacts—and one that operates proactively.
Even internally, this isn’t just a product feature. It’s a philosophy.
“It’s beyond software for us. It’s about helping dealers operate in their day‑to‑day activities.”
— Taylor Allis, Chief Product Officer
Lightspeed doesn’t just connect departments. It connects strategy, processes, and people—giving dealerships the visibility and control they need to grow.
