RepairQ

RepairQ is an all-in-one management platform for retail repair businesses, particularly those servicing smartphones, tablets, computers and other electronic devices. Repair operations combine the demands of retail sales with those of a service workshop, needing to track customer devices, diagnose faults, order parts, manage technicians and process payments, often across multiple locations. Using a generic point of sale system alongside separate ticketing tools and spreadsheets tends to create gaps in information and poor customer communication. RepairQ approaches this by unifying point of sale, repair ticket tracking, inventory, customer relationship management and business intelligence in a single cloud platform tailored to repair workflows, so that staff can check in devices, update repair status, sell accessories and review performance from the same system, and customers receive consistent updates from drop-off to collection. This specialised focus distinguishes it from generic retail systems that treat repairs as an afterthought.

Key features include configurable repair tickets with device details, diagnostics, technician assignments and status updates; automated customer notifications by text message and email; and inventory management for parts and retail products with serialised tracking, purchase orders, transfers between stores and supplier catalogues. The point of sale module handles sales, trade-ins, warranties and integrated payments, while CRM functions store customer histories and support marketing. Business intelligence dashboards analyse revenue, margins, technician productivity and turnaround times across locations, helping owners identify where to improve. Integrations with parts suppliers, payment processors, accounting software and carrier or insurance programmes support larger operations. The platform is delivered as a cloud service accessible from web browsers and tablets. RepairQ serves independent repair shops, multi-location chains, franchise networks, carrier and retail partners, and depot repair providers. Pricing starts from around USD 75 per month with a free trial available; there is no permanently free version.
