Valuable time saver
This software is such a time saver! Everything we used to do in word documents and calculators can be done easily with the software saving us hundreds of hours a year we can use towards other endeavors. And waking up to new leads never gets old!
CONSThe help section utilizes a search function and can take a couple minutes to find the answer you are looking for.

Awesome Product
It’s been great. Anytime I’ve come across a problem that I can’t figure out, (usually something I did in error) IO’s customer service is there to help me. It’s been a program that I am so happy I found. It saves my customers and I a lot of time. I would highly recommend it. Plus the price for a small business like mine is a definite plus. Love it!
PROSI love that my customers have a place to go to see my products. They have access to pay online and can also request a call from me for additional questions. So many customers want to book online and be done with it no matter what time of day. It’s very convenient. It also lets them know if their item is available for that day. It’s easy to use, which is extremely important.
CONSThe only one thing I would change is how they order chairs. If they put 10, but need 25, it gets a bit confusing for SOME customers. They put plus 10, but have a hard time adding 5 more. They usually figure it out, but it takes a little time when they just want to put the quantity in the box provided. Not a big deal, but worth mentioning.
Reason for choosing InflatableOffice
Extremely expensive. All of the others. I had no need for all the other things their programs could do. Just wasn’t necessary for the extreme prices they charge. IO also has several things that I haven’t taken advantage of. Hoping to one day. Their pricing structure is second to none. So happy that I chose them for my online system.

I'll Get Back To You
Nice people, they are better at blowing smoke than any Indian Tribe. I have consistently called, emailed, and now through a review asked for something to be done. I get "Yeah, we can do that. I will get on it, but I am busy right now. I will follow up later in the day or next day with you". As you can tell by this review that doesn't happen. I hate writing negative reviews, but over the course of 3 months I have still not gotten a call back. I have been the one to initiate the follow up. I can only hope that the ownership values their reviews. This product will not save you time, money, or increase your business because you are the one that has to do all the follow up work.
PROSHard to find a Pro about a product you use and you cringe sending a contract to a client
CONSIf I had to pick a least it would be the product that goes to the client. A close second would be the lack of follow up and actually the company doing what they say they are going to do.
Reason for choosing InflatableOffice
I thought that this company was good at keeping their word. I was drastically mislead.

Hi Rich, Thank you for the feedback. I apologize for the frustrations you've had recently. I believe we addressed your request to customize your contract yesterday. If you still have outstanding issues please let us know.

Robust CRM Product
I love the flexibility that IO gives you. You can search on and report on nearly every field imaginable. The user community is strong and the support team is hard to beat.
CONSThe nature of it's flexibility makes it also complex. The learning curve is shallow, but as you spend time with it, you figure things out. I wish it would more easily integrate with existing websites.
Reasons for switching to InflatableOffice
I needed to be able to handle multiple services more easily and to more easily interface with accounting software.

Infinitely customizable rental/event software that will replace an employee (or three)
Love it! Can't imagine living without it. It's only going to get better. Inflatable Office has been our single most important tool in helping to boost profits and increase our customer satisfaction to nearly 100%. That level of customer satisfaction seems impossible in this industry. Prior to IO, calling customers each Monday to apologize and find a way to "make it right", was standard practice. That hasn't been a thing for years now. It's nice to go through the weekends knowing we have 15 or more large events going on around town (plus 30 residential rentals) with no problems.
PROSThe built in features, and the ability to customize everything, has helped our company to get to a level where we're incredibly efficient and virtually error-free. This software makes all of our jobs easier and stress free. Sales and customer service can quickly and easily enter/modify orders, and have the confidence that everything will go smoothly down the line, knowing that customers will get what they are expecting. Warehouse, delivery, and event staff have all the information they need at their fingertips, so truck loading and events go off without a hitch. The delivery routing feature has made it easy to say "Yes!" to last minute add-ons, or change requests from our customers, increasing revenue and customer satisfaction. Scheduling employees is effortless, as they sign up for shifts themselves.
CONSIt can be intimidating for new users, and a lot of mistakes should be expected early on. I don't think the developers take enough time to understand the unique needs of each of their customers. The developers are quick to respond to requests for help customizing software for new customers, but I think they misfire often and leave their customers struggling with a setup that doesn't work as well as it could. Fortunately this is easily addressed by helpful users in the "Rental Pros" Facebook group they have created. New IO users should probably be directed to join this group immediately, and seek help there.
Reason for choosing InflatableOffice
Ability to customize. More enjoyable to visit the IO booth at IAAPA.
Reasons for switching to InflatableOffice
Needed modern software with endless features

Best rental software on the market!
Before going with any software I did my research and took demo’s from ERS and IO and both seemed to have good overall customer support but when talking to Both companies IO had already more features for less money and things ERS couldn’t make happen IO was able to get done. Other features I liked was I could use my own website or have them custom make me a Word Press site which for SEO it is a better platform. Also they had more fees associated with there hosting which you had to have.
PROSI love the customer service the most! Super friendly and always going the extra mile. As far as the software the sky’s the limit as with other software on the market seems to have limitations and with this it’s just a few clicks away and if they don’t have a feature available they seem to make one. Made my site fully automated and cuts down on follow up emails as the system will send reminders for payments, send contracts and even handle logistics with detailed routes for your drivers. Software integrates well with merchant accounts so you can take payments online. It’s like having severa employees working for you.
CONSOnly con would be it takes a little more time to learn but with excellent support and training it’s easy to get setup and running!

Great rental software
It's been a great timesaver
PROSBeing online was number one. It was also easy to use for both rentals and sales.
CONSI wasn't too thrilled when they moved to the new interface, but I got used to it. I charge for repairs based on time, but not like a rental. It may be dropped off one week and picked up the next. I put those dates and times in, but I'm not billing for all those hours. I would really like to be able to enter fractions of an hour in the qty field.
Reasons for switching to InflatableOffice
I am able to do everything on line from anywhere.
Vendor Response
Thanks for the review Mike. You could try use number of minutes for qty instead of hours.

IO Review
It has been good. The support and sales staff are very helpful.
PROSI like that when I started my business, this software was available to help me get started. There was a ton to learn about this business and IO helped a lot with that. Their FB pages also helped.
CONSThere are a few things I would like to see this software do that it currently does not. For instance: I wish I could ask customers to capture a photo their ID and CC, so that I could have it on file for when a customer does not take care of our equipment.
Reason for choosing InflatableOffice

The Best Software to run your business!
We started using this software over 1.5 years ago and I can not say enough positive things about it! The program itself is so easy to use. We have about 30 employees and all have picked up within hours. We even joke because my mother is 67 and she can use it! So if Grandma can make a reservation, anyone can! There are so many features within the program that helps run your business!. I am a numbers person and I love the fact that I can look at my numbers and know exactly how my staff is doing. In my previous program, you had to create a report and I didn't have time to do that. Today I look numerous times a day and manage my sales staff accordingly. The fact that it plans out my delivery schedule and helps me manage my cost is another amazing benefit. I would guess we are saving 7-8 hours a week alone on this ONE feature. Another feature that I love is the ease of sending a quote. I know that we have won so many bids because our customers get quotes before they hang up the phone. Honestly, I could go on and on about Inflatable office ( You should change your name because so many companies would benefit from your software). Of course the best attribute with this company is the customer service! They are exceptional! Anytime that I, My partner, General Manager or Logistic manager call they take care of us right away. I have never received such consistent great service from any company. My only regret is that I wish I would have found them sooner. Since having their software my company grew the first year by 26%. I am a 14 year old company and that is unheard of today. I am anticipating a 25+ growth again this year and I can truly say that Inflatable Office played a big role in our growth!

What would I do without IO?
From the moment that I decided to look into using InflatableOffice, to even now I would have to say that their customer service is very good. They help me set up my website domain and learn the program easily. Whenever I have a question or there is something I need to be modified or adjusted, they typically work on it within a days time.
PROSI love the fact that after signing up with IO just to see if I liked it, I was immediately contacted by a member of their team and notified that I had a functioning website. They helped me every step of the way as I set up my business and website.
CONSIt is somewhat complicated at first, but once you learn how to use the system, it’s totally worth it. I would rather have an in-depth and thorough software program instead of just the bare basics.
Reason for choosing InflatableOffice
Inflatable Office was referenced on several YouTube videos that I saw. They came highly recommended, and to be honest I had not heard of any other software programs at the time.
