Retreaders Choose Aftersoft’s New Retread Software

Announced earlier this year, VAST FA/R Retread from Aftersoft is a comprehensive, Windows-based retread plant management solution.

ALLENTOWN, Pa. — Aftersoft Network NA announced that Free Service Tire and Bastian Tire & Auto Centers, retreaders based in Tennessee and Pennsylvania respectively, are replacing their existing retread plant software with VAST FA/R Retread.

Announced earlier this year, VAST FA/R Retread is a comprehensive, Windows-based retread plant management solution. It is designed to fulfill the needs of independent retreaders that are looking for a modern, feature-rich solution to replace legacy “green screen” UNIX applications.

"Our existing software is tied to a single retread process. As a flexible, independent solution, VAST FA/R Retread will enable us to maintain, add or change retread production alliances to suit our business," said Harrison Wexler, executive vice president – Commercial, of Free Service Tire Co. "It is a proven product, with an extensive user base. We are excited that it will work ‘out of the box’ and integrate fully with our existing point-of-sale software."

"VAST FA/R Retread is an innovative solution that complements our existing VAST point-of-sale software," said John Fischer, VP of sales and marketing for Aftersoft. "For some time, we have provided support for third-party solutions such as Bandag’s BASYS, Michelin’s BIB TREAD and Goodyear’s GTracs. VAST FA/R Retread provides independent retreaders with a modern alternative that is capable of handling today’s retread processes.

"We are delighted that Free Service and Bastian have chosen VAST FA/R Retread to manage their retread processes. They required very specific features and their decision to choose VAST is testament to the functionality and flexibility of the software."
