Investing in the Future of UNITS® & EQUIP®

Over the past year, Auto-IT has made the most significant investment in the UNITS® & EQUIP® platform in recent memory — and 2026 is the year our customers start seeing the results.

The foundation is v25.2.0, a major platform upgrade that modernises how UNITS® & EQUIP® is delivered, secured, and updated. It introduces a new desktop launcher with automatic updates, modern authentication with Microsoft 365 Single Sign-On and optional multi-factor authentication, and Cloudflare-based secure networking — replacing legacy approaches to certificates, patching, and remote access.

A key part of this investment is Enable — our modern, web-based interface for UNITS® & EQUIP®. Enable is being deployed to all customers as part of the core product offering with the v25.2.0 upgrade. It’s where our most impactful new capabilities are being built, including a visual workshop scheduler, lead management board, and single customer view — all accessible through a modern browser experience designed for the way dealerships actually work. For customers who choose it, Enable also opens a path to secure remote access without VPN.

On top of these foundations, our 2026 roadmap delivers integrated payments and EFTPOS, two-way customer messaging, modern APIs for third-party integration, and AI-powered capabilities starting with intelligent lead ingestion — with more coming throughout the year across quarterly releases. Future updates and hotfixes now arrive seamlessly through the launcher, so your site never needs a major upgrade just to receive a fix.

We are actively upgrading every customer to v25.2.0 now, partnering with each site to complete the transition with minimal disruption. Every new capability on our roadmap is built on this platform — talk to your Auto-IT contact to schedule your upgrade.
