Easy to use and modern software

PROS

easy to use, outstanding customer support, great overview of projects and equipment, implementation of 3rd party software, great scanning implementation.

CONS

Still missing some features from the last software I used, but Rentman keeps updating and implementing new features, so the missing features will come in the future.

Your number one tool for AV-rental and Project Management business

Rentman helps me make things more efficient by saving time on resource planning, equipment management and sales. A real "multitool" for an Event production company.

PROS

Overall logic on the software is very fluent and easy to follow. I never read much of the tips and tricks section, but after couple of hours use I was able to figure out the key functions. I like the amount of time it saves me in quotations and planning for resources. Especially I like the Crew Planner.. That helps a lot when booking people to gigs. Our freelancers are also happy with the Rentman App for phone. Web based service is also a very good thing for smaller business when the need for own server base and maintenance is eliminated.

CONS

I tried to think this quite a lot, actually. The only thing that really bugs me is the section of documents which takes in data from tabs (customer name, location, project number..) For me, and probably many other, who do not understand that much about coding,(think the section is using css?) that there would be a simpler way to edit the general data of the document. I also happen to know that what I just wrote, corrupts the very idea for the software to fetch the data on the section automatically. Document templates are a bit annoying to get "just right", but well worth it in the long run. One does need a specialist within the organization who is very "into" the software and wants to learn more, and train others, in order to make things run smoothly. It is not that simple, for most of the users.

Reason for choosing Rentman

Based on a demo trial I figured very quickly Rentman to be just what I need. And started lobbying that idea within my organization.

Rentman Review

PROS

Great product for a small business or for a single user.

CONS

On the new version (4G), you cannot manage data privacy per user. It means that all users have access to all data, offers, invoices, conditions even prices. Dear colleagues, don’t you never get angry with a Freelancer, you may have surprises. Notice that this problem is not a priority for them because we would be 15 users out of 1700 to talk about it

Best Rental Software I have tried

We used to use Google Calendar to schedule our equipment and send invites to our employees. Used Quickbooks online to invoice and send estimates. This all can be done with Rentman.

PROS

Love that Rentman has Crew and equipment Scheduling built in the same app. Like that they have tech support that is built right into the application. When I first started using Rentman, I needed a lot of help. They were there for me. They are also updating Rentman constantly with new features and they are listening to their customers.

CONS

I wish the crew scheduling feature had the ability to send my employees an alert when a project gets canceled. I have asked on their suggestion page where you can leave suggestions and "want list".

Reason for choosing Rentman

Rentman has the ability to send crew invites within the application. Preferred the interface of Rentman.

PROS

I like that the serviceteam is open for changes when we ask for it, and the automation when booking. The serviceteam is quick to answer and help us through teamweaver.

CONS

i would like to have the chance to automatic book a flightcase for a given amount of equipment, for example a case of 6 flatpars, nice to have the chance to take one or two in a bag, but six in a flight

Reason for choosing Rentman

the business modules seemed more suitable for us, with the ability to expand later on.

Excellent Choice

First of all we solved the equipment availability problem. We can now check on availability easily especially on high season . Secondly we have a Clear view on our equipment/vehicles/crew whereabouts at any given time. On top we got some really nice planning modules that no accounting software developer could ever think of for our industry needs.

PROS

The ability to easily see if certain items are available or not for a certain period of time. Takes a few clicks only to get a project up and running.

CONS

warehouse module feels a bit complicated

Reason for choosing Rentman

Free trial period ,Price, communication with Rentman staff.

PROS

Easy to use, works on most platforms and cloud based. Easy access through the mobile app.

Setting up a new project can take a while but i guess it’s on us to learn all the short cuts.

Reason for choosing Rentman

We use "Rentman" for Material Planning, Personal planning, Dry Hire Organisation, Invoices, Offers

PROS

For us "Rentman" is the Swiss-Knife of Event Software. It allows us to plan and schedule Material, Personal, Logistics and to create offers, invoices and reminders on one online Plattform. We can use "Rentman" from every Point of the world and any System because it´s a browser based online tool. We use it since two years and it´s running completely stabil and secure. It´s easy to use and you can give difeerent roles to every employee depending on his role in your Company. From our Point of view "Rentman" is the most powerful and flexible Software for Event-Companies which is available in the Moment. We tried also Easy-Job before but it´s too expensive, too complicated and also too unflexible because there´s no Cloud-Online-Solution. One of the main profits of Rentman is the Support they give to you along the whole time. We got an complete "StartUp-Workshop" via Online teaching for our complete Team, so afterwords everyone knew the main functions and advantages of rentman. If there should be a Problem you can call them anytime and they will fix it professionell and fast.

CONS

The Rentman App is nice to have but it´s not really complete funktional at the Moment, it should have more of the Features which is included in Rentman-Online.

Vendor Response

Hey Christoph, thanks for the great review! We really like the Swiss Army Knife comparison! We see our software as an all-in-one solution for event rental companies like yours and knowing that all the tools are working out for you is the feedback we like to get. We were also happy to hear that our support team could minimize the set-up costs for you. We know that switching to a new rental management software is often the hardest part. Therefore, we want to make the transfer and training as effective and simple as possible. Keep your eyes open for updates to the Rentman browser version and Rentman App. New functionalities are added every month so new app features might be available sooner than you think ¿

Rentman Rules!

Great layout, easy to use, and keeps track of gear in a great manor.

PROS

Being in the warehouse, I like to start my day by browsing the "projects" tab. I feel it is layed out nicely. I know right away which jobs are in the works, or have the greenlight for me to prep. It's a great tool for me to wrap my head around each job. I can easily go to projects, and open up a production breakdown for a job. Very helpful!

CONS

I have to refresh a lot. The windows time out quickly.

Event Rental Software with everything I needed!

Rentman includes features that make sense for Event Professionals. Important features include multiple user levels, friendly mobile app, labor and transport modules and easy sub-hire (cross rental) feature. I have used several US based software systems. I have found Rentman has a better combination of features for my application. Software as a service minimizes initial startup cost. The price structure makes sense and is is easy to add users. Rentman has better customer support and includes an integrated Teamviewer for live support.

PROS

The Rentman web interface is fast even on a slow internet connection. I can customize the access level of each user, which is great for part-time and freelance employees. I can customize forms myself. Inventory supports kits, resale items and sub-hire. Customer database allows for multiple contacts under one organization. Rentman combines the best features of a CMA, Inventory Control system, and Project Management suite in one place.

Vendor Response

Hi Robert, Thank you so much for taking the time and giving us detailed feedback on our software. We are really happy to hear that Rentman is able to help you with managing your rental business in that many aspects. We focus on providing the best service and support possible so thank you very much for the kinds words. Best regards, Team Rentman

Lacking in so many ways

From an event perspective, this software is lacking in so many ways. if you just need to track your software, this could be a great option. It is outdated but this help with the simplisity of the product. When investing in a software, I want something that will act as close to a one stop shop as I can get meaning in assists with contracting, accounts payment, accounts receivable, inventory management, reporting, deploy and track labor, etc. This software really is just an inventory software and not suited for the hospitality industry.

PROS

Simplistic Great at tracking inventory only

CONS

Does not.... Track payments, billing due or past due billingOutside of inventory, it doesnt do much to help move an event forwardReport on anything other than inventory
