Start with your store, not an OEM checklist.
Motive prominently presents its OEM partnerships. If you sell used vehicles independently, evaluate the experience your customers need: finding a car, understanding its condition, and contacting your team. Ask both providers to demonstrate those tasks with an inventory mix like yours.
DealerProEdge gives your team a dealer CMS and a mobile-first website. In the demo, walk through changing a page and following a shopper from search to a vehicle enquiry.
