Vehiso vs GForces
Vehiso ships a modern dealer website and a full DMS in 5 minutes from £49/month, with workshop, branded social posting, online payments, and MTD-ready Xero, QuickBooks, and Sage accounting included as standard. Here is how it compares to GForces. Vehiso now has a free forever plan too, with paid plans from £49/month.
Vehiso is the modern, all-in-one car dealer platform: a customisable website, a full DMS, workshop management, branded social posting, AI tools, online payments, and MTD-ready Xero, QuickBooks, and Sage accounting integrations included from £49/month. It supports single-site, multi-location, used and new car dealerships - with self-serve onboarding so you can be live in 5 minutes. GForces builds NetDirector, an enterprise automotive ecommerce platform used by large franchise groups and manufacturers, with online service booking, parts and accessories sales, part-exchange valuations, finance approval, and a full online purchase journey. It is powerful at that scale, but it is built and priced for franchise retailers rather than independents, onboarding is a sales-led implementation, and modern AI helpers are not the focus.

Why dealers pick Vehiso
Built for independents, priced for independents
Vehiso is designed for independent used-car, van, and bike dealers and priced at £49/month with the full DMS included. GForces and NetDirector are enterprise software built and priced for franchise groups and manufacturers, which is usually more platform, and more cost, than an independent needs.
Live in 5 minutes, no implementation project
Sign up, brand the site, push your stock, and go live the same day. NetDirector is a sales-led purchase with an implementation project attached, which makes sense at franchise-group scale but is heavy going for a small dealer.
Native AI, included as standard
AI vehicle descriptions, AI background replacement, and an in-app AI assistant with daily recommendations ship with every paid plan. NetDirector is built around enterprise digital retailing rather than day-to-day AI helpers.
Provenance checks that stay with the car
Connect your own MotorCheck trade account and run history, specification and condition alert checks without leaving Vehiso. Each report files itself against the car it is about and downloads as a PDF. MotorCheck bills the checks at your own trade rates and Vehiso adds nothing per check.
Bring your current look with you
Switching usually means starting from a blank page and rebuilding everything you had already got right. Point Vehiso's bespoke theme designer at your existing GForces site and it reads your pages for tone, services and selling points, then designs a theme to your brief that still sounds and looks like you. Or pick one of 18 core themes instead.
