- I predict the Verus pro and Verdict to be at most a year behind that. I don't give the Edge more than 5 years. Those are MY predictions. I know I won't be buying any more scanners or scopes from Snap on that I haven't already bought if this is the kind of short lived support they are going to not provide.Can't afford to at those hardware prices. If they are going to have a revolving door.

As the JT Hotshotting fleet grows, so does our maintenance. An equitable solution has proven to be shifting our maintenance to our 100% in-house program. This made sense as it obviously costs less (even with new tool investments such as this) and we have complete control over the quality of workmanship performed on our equipment.
When it comes to high-end scan and diagnostic tools there is a lot to choose from. I’ve had experience with some of the brands out there and after quite a bit of research settled on the new 4th generation Snap-on VERUS Edge powered by Windows 7 and WIFI connectivity. I won’t get into the technical specifications of the unit as it features similar hardware to most other mainstream tablets but rather I will focus on what it can do in this article.

Snap-on has really outdone themselves on this and it’s more than just a diagnostic tool. The VERUS Edge will store and manage thousands of vehicles in its database and also provides exclusive expert resources such as SureTrack, Troubleshooter and Fast-Track Guided Component Tests.

Those features alone are worth the price of this device however it doesn’t stop there.

Gone are the days of having to be right beside the vehicle with specific “keys” to plug in for each make and model.

We’ve Got Another Winner!
Snap On Verus Edge Software Update Windows 10
All in all, the Snap-on VERUS Edge is an extremely well rounded unit. I’ve already been able to utilize it for injector trim code programming on one of our Dodge Ram 5500’s and to diagnose a transmission issue on a Dodge Ram 3500. After owning it for just one week, it’s already apparent that it’s capable of paying for itself.
