That depends entirely on whether you need what it adds, which on the published record is everything in professional, custom integrations, advanced reporting, dedicated support.

The record carries a price and a billing period for each of its 3 tiers, but not the unit that price is charged in. Per-seat and flat-rate billing look identical in this data, so check the vendor's page before budgeting for a team.

Are these CarNow prices current?

They are what the catalogue entry holds, refreshed when the entry is. Vendors change pricing without notice and nobody at Softwr re-verifies each tier by hand, so treat this as a structured summary and the vendor's own pricing page as the authority.

CarNow pricing

Entry price: $800/month

CarNow plans, side by side

Every published tier in ascending order of price, with the number of features each one lists. An absence here means the record does not itemise it, not that the tier lacks it.

CarNow pricing tiers

Professional	$1800/month	4	+$1000/month, 4 more features
Enterprise	On request	4	Priced on request

What each tier adds

The set difference between each tier's feature list and the one beneath it. Where a tier lists nothing new, the vendor has either stopped repeating the inherited list or the tier raises limits rather than adding capability, the record does not distinguish the two, so this page does not either.

Before you pay for CarNow

Three things this page cannot tell you, and all three change the bill. The record carries a price and a billing period but not the unit - per-seat and flat-rate pricing are indistinguishable in this data, so a five-person team may be looking at five times the figure above. It carries no annual rate, so any discount for paying yearly is not something this page can quote. And it carries no trial length.

What it can tell you is the shape of the ladder: 3 tiers between $800/month and On request, with the jump itemised above. With no free tier on record, the cheapest way to answer the rest is to compare CarNow against the tools that do have one before committing.

CarNow runs on web, mobile, api, and is published by CarNow Inc. of Los Angeles, CA. The full record is on the CarNow review, and the rest of the category is under best automotive tools.
