Description

RepairAmigo is a self-hosted management solution designed for repair shops specializing in cell phones, computers, game consoles, and various electronics. The software effectively combines repair tickets and customer information with inventory management, cash-only point of sale systems, receipts, reporting capabilities, warranty tracking, and permissions based on user roles.

An optional feature for Twilio texting is available as part of the vendor's offering. RepairAmigo is designed to operate as a virtual machine within VirtualBox on Windows, Linux, or Intel Mac systems, ensuring flexibility for different shop environments.
