Back to resources How Main Street Automotive Raised the Standard with Shop-Ware Posted on February 20, 2026 in When Andrei Obolenskiy, owner of Main Street Automotive in downtown Walnut Creek, set out to find a new shop management system, he wasn’t looking for more plugins. He was looking for clarity. Too many platforms required add-ons for digital vehicle inspections, text-to-pay, and even basic communication. What stood out to him about Shop-Ware was the simplicity of one connected ecosystem built by someone who truly understands shop life. As Andrei put it, “Get the shop management system that was developed and built by a shop owner and you won’t go wrong.” For Main Street Automotive, the impact was immediate. With Shop-Ware’s digital vehicle experience, customers review inspections, approve work from their phone or computer, and keep repairs moving without interrupting their day. Technicians have a tool they trust. Advisors have a direct line to customers. New hires are up and running in a matter of days. Most importantly, greater transparency has led to stronger reviews and deeper trust. This is what happens when intuitive software is built from real shop experience. Your team works smarter, and your customers feel confident every step of the way.
