We're sorry to hear that there have been quality issues - we'd be grateful if you could contact the customer services team to help diagnose where the issue may be. Our app captures at 720p though it relies on the quality of the camera in the device which can sometimes be the limiting factor on quality.
Light can also play an important role, for example a video underneath a car in a darker workshop can end up with a lower quality, in which case we would recommend an extra light source of some sort to help with the video quality, as well as the general visibility of the parts being shown in the video.
It would be great if you could help us understand more, by contacting customer support and letting them know the issue so they can help figure out what could be causing it. They are at: help@citnow.com
Thanks and we hope this is able to be sorted for you.

Expensive, and support none existant unless you pay for it!!

Quite expensive compared to others in the market place, with no support on training or the system unless you want to pay for it. We had no visits from their area team all of the time we had the product so eventually we switched to Edynamix who are cheaper and have a much better product with a cracking support team!

We're glad to hear you've found a solution that works and are sorry that we couldn't be the provider of choice in this instance. If in future you decide to review providers, we would like for CitNOW to be considered as we are constantly improving our services.

Our Academy offers a wide range of solutions to cater for your needs which includes training as well as online solutions. Visits from the field team can be a really great help especially when getting started and we apologise for the lack of visits.

While this may not mean too much now given your preference, we do hope you'll consider CitNOW again in future.

Best, the CitNOW team.

BEWARE of CitNow Auto Renew contracts

BEWARE of CitNow Auto Renew contracts! Im disappointed to have to write such a review on an automotive company, as if the job isn't hard enough in the trade. I NEVER write reviews on a company, especially negative ones and those in the same industry! Even if I have had a poor experience.
HOWEVER other dealers need to be warned about CitNow and their autorenew contracts which are a complete con. The last time I got shafted with one of these auto-renew contracts was with an advertising company who had a terrible reputation for doing the same thing (had only have i checked online reviews prior to signing that agreement.)

I have been a loyal paying customer of CitNow and have been for 2 years. Aware my 2 year contract was up I opted to look at an alternative solution. Duly signed a 30 day rolling contract with the new provider and notified Citnow in writing that I wish to cancel now that my 2 years has expired.

The following day, I receive an email from my apparent account manager (who I've never until now had any correspondence with in the whole 2 years) who advises me that Im signed in to another 2 years as haven't given written notice 30 days prior to my 24 months being up!
I respond to the email politely advising that with all due respect I don't take time out of the working week to review what supplier contracts may be coming to an end, and those companies that may be trying to have me over with an 24 month auto-renew contract.

After 2 or 3 emails back and forth complaining, they reduce the 24 month contract to 3 months "as a goodwill gesture." I advise im obviously happy to pay for the 1 month's notice (even though im now not using the service anyway) but im not paying them an additional 2 months when ive seen out my 2 years agreed contract. OUT OF PRINCIPLE!
I've gone on to say that should the new provider not work out, or functionality not be as id hoped that I would HAPPILY be returning to CitNow anyway.
I confirmed however I WOULDN'T return unless a sensible commercial decision was taken on my complaint. In short they weren't interested, even after it was reviewed by senior management, twice.
Still Citnow pursued me for the money and the remaining 2 months not wanting to budge.

On the final payment demand I re confirmed my utter disbelief in their commercial decision. I also reluctantly advised id be reviewing the company accordingly so that other car dealers don't fall foul to this auto renew contract, giving CitNow the opportunity to re-review the policy on my case and others in the future. Again Not interested.

So here I am, reluctantly reviewing a company after giving them every opportunity to do the sensible thing. I don't know whats worse, the auto-renew contract con, the fact they just dont care, the fact i've had to take an hour out of my evening to write this review, or the fact im now officially a keyboard warrior! However rest assured im not your typical warrior I have far better things to be doing with my life as we all do.

Think twice before signing with CitNow. My recommendation is Gardx B2see - Great product, more functionality and 30 day rolling contract.

Enjoy my £600 CitNow - Im so disappointed ive had to write this review - massive let down from all angles on your part. You need to re-review your policies and how to look after customers going forward.

One very disgruntled Car Dealer.

Hi Dan.
I am really sorry to hear about your experience and it has highlighted an issue within our existing processes which we will now be looking to rectify. Thank you for taking the time to give us this feedback. As you can imagine we are disappointed that it has taken for you to reach out socially to get the right solution. Having just recently taken on the role as Chief Customer Officer I will be looking into the points you raised to ensure we don't have this happen again.
I know Alistair (our CEO) has reached out and will be discussing solutions directly with you.
Kind Regards,
Carol Fairchild
