How Oil Change Shop Software Can Fuel Your Business Growth

August 21, 2025

If you’re still using PM Attendant, you’ve probably got your process down. You know where everything is, your team knows how it works, and you’ve made it part of your daily routine. Even solid software needs to evolve. PM Attendant’s strategic merger with ISI reflects a shared commitment to building a faster, smarter solution for today’s industry.

That’s why we built LubeSoft Express. It’s modern oil change shop software designed for fast-lube businesses that don’t have time to mess around. And because it’s built by ISI (the same company that now owns PM Attendant), you get familiar tools, smarter workflows, and better performance without starting from scratch.

In this article, we’ll show you exactly what you can do with LubeSoft Express, how it simplifies your day-to-day, and how it positions your business for long-term growth.

What’s Next for PM Attendant Users?

PM Attendant has been a reliable option for a long time. Thousands of oil change shops across the country have used it to manage tickets, track service history, and keep things running smoothly day to day. It’s familiar, and for a while, it kept pace with what the industry needed.

While PMA has served shops well over the years, LubeSoft Express was created to offer even more, with expanded features, modern integrations, and a faster, more intuitive experience. And because it’s built and supported by the same team, migrating is seamless and familiar. If you want to stay competitive, this is the right moment to look at your options. You don’t need to wait for a shutdown. Shift to a platform that’s built for where your business is headed and start using tools that help you grow.

Why Should You Upgrade Your Oil Change Shop Software Now?

Staying on aging software may feel safe, but in the long run, it can quietly hold your shop back. You may not notice it right away, but small inefficiencies start stacking up: longer ticket times, missing customer info, delays in getting reports, and clunky workarounds just to keep things running. Your team spends more time fighting the system than focusing on the customer in front of them.

And as the industry keeps evolving with more digital tools, more customer expectations, and more competition, older systems simply aren’t built to keep up. Limited integration means your software can’t talk to your marketing or inventory platforms. Outdated reporting makes it harder to see what’s working and what’s not. And without regular updates, every year puts you further behind.

  • Faster, more consistent workflows that help technicians and store management move confidently through each ticket without backtracking
  • Real-time reporting and dashboards that give you visibility into car count, ticket averages, bay efficiency, and more
  • Integrations with marketing, POS, and inventory systems, so your tools work together, not against each other
  • Mobile-friendly dashboards and cloud access, giving you flexibility to run your shop even when you’re not on-site
  • Ongoing updates and reliable support, so you’re never stuck waiting for answers or troubleshooting alone

With the right oil change shop software, your operation runs smoother, your team gets more done, and you position your shop to not just catch up, but to pull ahead.

What Makes LubeSoft Express Different from Other Software?

This isn’t generic POS software trying to fit into a quick lube workflow. LubeSoft Express was built from the ground up for oil change shops by people who know what it takes to run one. It’s not patched together with generic tools or bloated with features you’ll never use. Every screen, feature, and workflow was designed with one goal in mind: helping you run a faster, more efficient shop.

That means you don’t waste time customizing fields or jumping between systems just to get through a basic service ticket. You don’t need a workaround to track bay activity or figure out what inventory is running low. LubeSoft Express fits how your business already works—only better, faster, and smarter.

Here’s how it helps you do more:

  • Faster ticketing: Move vehicles through quickly with streamlined service ticket creation.
  • Bay timer: Track productivity in real-time so you can optimize every minute.
  • Smarter reporting: See performance trends, manage inventory, and make better decisions with clear, actionable data.

You’re not just replacing old software with something newer. You’re putting the right tools in your team’s hands, tools that help them work faster, stay organized, and deliver the kind of service that keeps customers coming back. And when your team wins, your whole shop does too.
