Easy Updates



Tired of waiting for companies to send you program updates on a disk or CD through the mail? Why wait? This is the age of the Internet, and Friday Systems, Inc. is ahead of the game. Our program updates are always available online, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Updates for the main program as well as form-printing files are kept in our online library and can be easily accessed and downloaded using our software. Patches and upgrades take minutes online rather than days or weeks through the mail which keep your dealership running efficiently.
