Strengthening UnameIT's aftersales capabilities
Claire, based in Ede, offers a cloud-native SaaS platform focused on digitalizing and optimizing aftersales workflows and work order processes for automotive dealers and garages. With a proven track record and a customer base that includes leading dealer groups such as Van Mossel, Emil Frey, and Jaguar Land Rover, Claire has developed into a trusted partner for small, medium, and large (multi-site) dealerships, independent automotive businesses, and OEM networks.
By joining forces, UnameIT and Claire combine two complementary product suites into one integrated platform that covers the complete dealer process: from lead generation and sales to aftersales, service, and procurement. Claire's in-depth expertise in the aftersales domain forms a natural extension of UnameIT's commercial solutions.
Shared vision and integration plan
UnameIT and Claire already have several shared customers in their client base and are actively working on product integrations to further enhance the seamless user experience of their combined offering.
Antoine van den Eijnden, CEO of Claire, responds: "I am enthusiastic about this next step in Claire's growth strategy. In this collaboration, we are even better positioned to serve our valued customers and to grow together with our customers to other European markets as part of the UnameIT organization."
Robert Adelerhof, CEO of UnameIT, adds: "We are very pleased to announce this acquisition, which marks an important step in our growth strategy since our partnership with Main Capital Partners. We see a natural match between our solutions that focus on the commercial processes of dealers and the aftersales automation capabilities that Claire has been providing to its loyal customers for years. We look forward to collaborating with the entire Claire team and to leveraging the innovative opportunities that this combination brings for our shared customer base."
