its Direct Sales and Distribution Network throughout Europe
COLOGNE, Germany, Sept. 14, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE)
-- ALLDATA Europe GmbH, an affiliate of ALLDATA LLC, the leading
provider of manufacturers' automotive repair information and
solutions for the professional automotive service and repair
industry, announced it has reached a milestone with 5,000
subscribers across Europe in just four years. Since its official
product launch at Automechanika in 2012, ALLDATA Repair in Europe
has grown to include 22 vehicle brands with more than 25 million
articles and 23,000 engine combinations, available in five
languages (English, Spanish, French, Italian and German). A strong
network of resellers and distributors, in combination with direct
sales, has contributed to ALLDATA's rapid growth in Europe.
"Our customers understand the value and uniqueness
ALLDATA offers the European market," said Kevin Culmo, General
Manager and Managing Director, ALLDATA Europe GmbH, and Group Vice
President, ALLDATA LLC. "We've partnered with some of the largest
and most respected resellers and distributors in the industry to
integrate directly into the parts catalog, providing customers with
seamless access to ALLDATA Repair's complete diagnostic
information."
ALLDATA Europe provides original OEM repair and
diagnostic information, advanced searching capability, wiring
diagrams, maintenance interval and service schedules and more

manufacturers to provide information for more than 95% of the
vehicles on the road in Europe. Ongoing product enhancements,
including advanced searching capability, standard navigation,
unified taxonomy and dynamic service intervals, make it an
attractive offering for workshops.
Expansion of direct sales in Germany and the UK
has proven invaluable to ALLDATA Europe's growth, as it has been to
ALLDATA's successful 30-year history in selling directly to
workshops in North America. The interaction with workshop owners
and technicians is instrumental to understand business challenges
and articulate how the depth and breadth of OEM repair information
available in ALLDATA Repair saves time, money and improves
profitability.

encompass more than seven countries within a network of more than
20 partners. The team continues to grow that network and

best-in-class automotive parts combined with leading OEM repair
information to support quality automotive service.
