RouteOne Enhances Mobile App Tool
FARMINGTON HILLS - RouteOne announced the availability of additional enhancements to its free Android(TM) app, including the ability to forward 'sent' applications to a new finance source, securely text message with supporting finance sources, get payoff quotes, and capture leads into the Lead Manager within RouteOne.
The additions, which will be available for the iPhone in the coming months, enhance the base functionality of the app, which is designed to allows users to view and manage RouteOne deals and leads, as well as request and view credit scores instantly.
"This new functionality will allow our dealers to utilize RouteOne in an even more robust way than before," said Mike Jurecki, RouteOne CEO. "Dealers can communicate more efficiently with their finance sources, allowing them to expedite the deal process. Our full set of mobile tools provides dealers the flexibility they require in servicing their customers, whenever and wherever they need to do so."
The RouteOne app will be automatically updated for users who turn on the automatic update feature in their Android phone. Others will need to update it manually (dealers should look for the new RouteOne app on their update notification list).
