Dentz runs a paintless dent repair business end to end: leads, quotes, bookings, jobs, invoices and payments in the portal, and the Dentz app on the phone for whoever does the work. Your first 30 days are free and there's no card to start.
Setup takes three steps
- Business — the name your customers know you by.
- Where do you work? — your base city and how far you travel. This is also the circle marketplace leads come from. You can skip it (Skip — I'll find my own work) and set it later under Settings → Rules.
- What do you charge? — five prices you already charge, excl. VAT. Dentz builds your retail, dealer and hail price lists from them and shows a live preview. You can skip this too, but you can't send a priced quote until it's done.
Finish setting up
Your dashboard shows a Finish setting up checklist until you've done the things that change what customers see: contact details, pricing, service area, brand colour and inviting your technicians. Each line takes you to the right screen.
Try it with example work
An empty portal is hard to learn. While you have no data, the dashboard offers Fill with example work: four customers with a few quotes, jobs and invoices. Click around, send yourself a quote, then remove it all from Settings → Business with Clear example work. Only the example records are deleted.
Your first week
- Add your banking details under Settings → Rules → Banking details, so every invoice can be paid by EFT.
- Upload your logo and pick a brand colour under Settings → Business. They go on every quote, invoice and report.
- Send yourself a quote first, to see exactly what a customer sees.
- Invite your technicians from Team and ask them to install the Dentz app.
- Switch on marketplace leads under Settings → Rules → Public profile and leads if you want Dentz to send you jobs.
