Case Study: VinSolutions achieves a 99% reduction in vendor on‑boarding time with Astera Software

VinSolutions Keeps Track of over a Million Cars Using Astera’s Automated ETL

VinSolutions is an automotive data-integration company that connects car dealerships to marketing platforms like AutoTrader, managing data from 60–80 DMSs (including custom systems) and supporting listings for over a million cars with 100+ daily-updated data points. The business struggled with heavy custom coding and mapping for each new dealer, a process that could take up to two months (about 368 developer hours) per vendor.

By adopting Astera’s automated ETL—extracting from varied DMS configurations, transforming and mapping to a unified format, and scheduling automated transfers—VinSolutions enabled non-developers to build sub-flows and handle dealer variances without developer involvement. Vendor onboarding time dropped to roughly 2 developer hours (a 99% reduction), shrinking monthslong tasks to about an hour and freeing developer resources while supporting 70–100 dealers onboarding per month.
