Already Have Tools? Netchex Connects to Them
The full suite lives in one application, so most Group 1 teams need fewer integrations than they expect. Many Group 1 stores already run CDK Global, and for the tools you have built around, Netchex connects to the DMS and hiring platforms Group 1 dealerships run, so technician time, commissions, and GL flow without double entry.
DealertrackDMS
Auto/MateDMS…and many more DMS, hiring, and HR tools. If your Group 1 stores already run it, chances are Netchex connects to it.

Questions From Group 1 Operators
What payroll software do Group 1 dealerships use?
Most Group 1 operators look for payroll built for dealership pay, not salaried desk workers. Many Group 1 stores already run CDK Global, and Netchex connects to it directly, syncing technician time, commissions, and GL without double entry. Netchex is an all-in-one HR and payroll platform for automotive dealerships with native flat-rate, commission, and draw support and multi-rooftop management, all in one application.
How do Group 1 groups run payroll across multiple rooftops?
With OneScreen Payroll, Group 1 operators run payroll for every rooftop from one screen and one login, with totals to approve. Employees can be shared across stores, and each rooftop’s hours, commissions, and GL flow in automatically from CDK Global or your DMS of choice.
Does Netchex support flat-rate technicians and commissioned sales staff at Group 1 stores?
Yes. Flat-rate, commission, spiffs, draws, and retro pay are built into every layer of the platform, from time tracking to reporting. Group 1 dealerships pay every employee type accurately without spreadsheets or workarounds.
