Every Protractor repair order becomes a review request
When a repair order closes or vehicle gets delivered in Protractor, Reviewflowz automatically sends a review request to your customer via email, SMS, or WhatsApp. Set it up once and forget it — every single customer gets asked for a review without you lifting a finger. No manual work, no missed opportunities, just consistent review requests flowing to Google, DealerRater, Cars.com, and other key sites.
Your happiest customers, flagged in Protractor
When a customer leaves a 5-star Google review after their service, that signal flows right back into Protractor — attached to their repair order. Now your service advisors know exactly which customers are your biggest advocates. Ask them for a video testimonial, referral, or case study right from their customer record.
Staff attribution without the name-drop
Most shops ask customers to mention their service advisor by name in reviews. Problem: Google flags those reviews more often, and customers forget or misspell names. Because Reviewflowz connects to Protractor, it already knows which advisor handled each repair order. When the review comes in, it's automatically attributed — no name needed. Your reviews read naturally, fewer get removed, and you still get per-advisor performance data.

Reviews per repair order — the metric that matters
A shop with 200 reviews sounds impressive — until you realize they've completed 3,000 repair orders. That's a 6.7% conversion rate. Your competitor down the street has 80 reviews from 400 ROs — a 20% rate. They're winning. Because Reviewflowz connects to Protractor, it knows exactly how many repair orders and vehicle sales you completed. So instead of celebrating raw numbers, you see: 342 repair orders this month, 47 reviews, 13.7% conversion rate. That's the number you optimize against.
AI replies to every review automatically
Replying to reviews boosts your Google ranking, builds trust with future customers, and gives unhappy ones a reason to return to your service drive. But what service advisor or technician has time to reply to every single review across Google, DealerRater, CarGurus, and Cars.com? Reviewflowz generates on-brand replies using AI — approve them manually or let them publish automatically so no review goes unanswered.

What review sites matter most for automotive businesses?
For automotive businesses, Google Reviews is always #1 since it drives the most local search visibility, but industry-specific platforms like Cars.com, DealerRater, CarGurus, and Facebook are crucial for domain authority and reaching customers actively shopping for vehicles or service. These automotive-focused sites carry significant weight with potential customers researching dealerships, body shops, and service centers before making decisions. Reviewflowz monitors all of these essential platforms plus 200+ others from one centralized dashboard, so you never miss a review that could impact your reputation.
How do I measure my review performance?
Don't just count reviews—measure your review conversion rate by dividing reviews by your total repair orders or vehicle sales, because raw review counts are meaningless without knowing your customer volume. Reviewflowz automatically calculates this for you by pulling your denominator directly from Protractor, so you can see that 80 reviews from 2,000 customers (4% conversion) actually outperforms 200 reviews from 15,000 customers (1.3% conversion). This gives you the real performance metric that matters for your automotive business.
How does the review request actually get sent?
When a repair order is closed, vehicle is delivered, service is completed, or car is sold in Protractor, Reviewflowz automatically detects this trigger event and immediately sends a review request to your customer via your chosen channel—email, SMS, or WhatsApp. You configure this once by selecting your trigger event and preferred communication channel, then every customer automatically receives a review request without any manual work from your team. It's completely set-and-forget—Reviewflowz handles everything in the background once you've set your preferences.
Can I send review requests via WhatsApp?
Yes, Reviewflowz supports WhatsApp review requests with impressive 98% open rates compared to traditional email. Just like email and SMS options, WhatsApp requests are automatically triggered from Protractor when repair orders are closed, vehicles are delivered, or services are completed. This makes it especially powerful in markets where WhatsApp is the primary communication channel.
Can I track which service advisor, technician, or salesperson generates the most reviews?
Yes, Reviewflowz automatically tracks which team member generates each review by connecting directly to your Protractor DMS and matching reviews to the specific service advisor, technician, or salesperson who handled that repair order or vehicle sale. This gives you complete performance tracking and leaderboards for your service drive and sales teams without customers needing to mention staff names. As an added benefit, this approach helps prevent Google from flagging and removing reviews, since reviews that specifically mention employee names are more likely to be taken down.
How long does it take to set up Reviewflowz with Protractor?
Setup takes just minutes, not days – simply connect your Protractor system, choose your trigger and communication channel, and you're live without needing any developers or IT involvement. Your first automated review request goes out the same day you complete setup.
How much do review request emails and SMS cost?
Reviewflowz charges $5 per 1,000 emails and $5 per 100 SMS on a pay-as-you-go basis with no monthly minimums or contracts. For most automotive businesses, this works out to just pennies per review collected, making it a negligible cost relative to the value each review brings to your dealership.
