CurbwrenchCompare honestly
Leaving Shopmonkey 2.0 should not mean rebuilding your shop from scratch.
Shopmonkey may still be the right tool for larger front-desk shops. Curbwrench is intentionally narrower: road-first operations for mobile mechanics who need estimates, invoices, email, portal, and clean books without contract games.
Where Shopmonkey is stronger
- • Broad all-in-one coverage for established multi-bay shops
- • Modern cloud access and a large integration footprint
- • Mature reporting surface for larger operations
Where Curbwrench is stronger
- • Mobile-first flow for the solo van operator
- • Month-to-month pricing with self-serve cancel and export
- • Shopmonkey-shaped CSV import path for customers and vehicles
- • Canadian tax behavior treated as a core workflow
Migration path
Export customers and vehicles, upload CSV in Curbwrench, verify 10 sample rows, then run the importer. Keep invoices in the old system until the first week closes cleanly.
