Toughbooks are designed and built by people who understand how automotive diagnostic companies make their money – through repeat or further business from customers who are satisfied with the service they receive. More than this, they allow technicians to be of more value to the customer, carrying out additional or enhanced services during the visit, which generates increased revenue for the repair company.

The point of checking-in a vehicle can create a major barrier to efficiency in the diagnostic process, especially during the highly pressurized peak morning period. This leads to increased customer waiting times and a lowering of satisfaction levels. Next, as the cars are assigned to a technician, faults are hopefully matched to skill sets. But when this isn’t done, ‘right first time’ levels drop and errors occur. Toughbooks have redefined this process, combining with diagnostic systems to allow technicians to complete three diagnostics in the time it usually takes to do one. How? By combining military-grade wireless connectivity, an unrivalled ability to operate in challenging environments and integrated peripherals such as RFID and barcode readers.
