ALLDATA Europe Reaches Business Milestones

COLOGNE, Germany, Sept. 14, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ALLDATA Europe GmbH, an affiliate of ALLDATA LLC, the leading provider of manufacturers’ automotive repair information and solutions for the professional automotive service and repair industry, announced it has reached a milestone with 5,000 subscribers across Europe in just four years. Since its official product launch at Automechanika in 2012, ALLDATA Repair in Europe has grown to include 22 vehicle brands with more than 25 million articles and 23,000 engine combinations, available in five languages (English, Spanish, French, Italian and German). A strong network of resellers and distributors, in combination with direct sales, has contributed to ALLDATA’s rapid growth in Europe.

“Our customers understand the value and uniqueness ALLDATA offers the European market,” said Kevin Culmo, General Manager and Managing Director, ALLDATA Europe GmbH, and Group Vice President, ALLDATA LLC. “We’ve partnered with some of the largest and most respected resellers and distributors in the industry to integrate directly into the parts catalog, providing customers with seamless access to ALLDATA Repair’s complete diagnostic information.”

ALLDATA Europe provides original OEM repair and diagnostic information, advanced searching capability, wiring diagrams, maintenance interval and service schedules and more within a user-friendly portal.

Ongoing product enhancements, including advanced searching capability, standard navigation, unified taxonomy and dynamic service intervals, make it an attractive offering for workshops.

Expansion of direct sales in Germany and the UK has proven invaluable to ALLDATA Europe’s growth, as it has been to ALLDATA’s successful 30-year history in selling directly to workshops in North America. The interaction with workshop owners and technicians is instrumental to understand business challenges and articulate how the depth and breadth of OEM repair information available in ALLDATA Repair saves time, money and improves profitability.

ALLDATA has also grown its reseller network to encompass more than seven countries within a network of more than 20 partners.
