A typical day

A 2016 Tiguan arrives with a P0455. The technician asks for the purge valve location and test procedure, gets the section from the workshop manual, and has the diagnosis in twenty minutes. Next bay, a Ram with a lifter tick: the manual's valve lifter replacement procedure and torque table, plus the bulletin about MDS lifter failure, in one conversation.

The point is not that the technician could not find this elsewhere. It is that finding it took five minutes across three sources before, and now takes one question.

    Open the cited page when it matters.

    The answer links to the manual section it came from.

Can several technicians share an account?+

Shop plans support multiple seats with a shared vehicle history.

Does it replace a wiring diagram viewer?+

It returns the wiring section and describes the circuit. For large diagrams you will still want the image, which is linked.
