### A GREAT Rental Platform for the right company

- Overall rating: 4/5
- Reviewer: Robert H.
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Industry: Events Services
- Company size: 11-50 employees
- Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years
- Reviewed: February 2019
- Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.

I've been on FLEX for over 7 years. Growing from 4 users and a Single location to Multi-Warehouse and 40 users. Compared to other platforms I have used it is the easiest/cleanest.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 4/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

VERY user friendly interface / design. Great Cloud based platform. Easy to use from Quote to Billing.

#### Cons

The backbone is difficult to navigate/manage for the standard administrator.

### Very "functional", but not very practical.

- Overall rating: 4/5
- Reviewer: Verified Reviewer
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Product usage: Used daily for less than 2 years
- Reviewed: December 2017
- Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 2/5
- Value for money: 3/5
- Customer support: 2/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

The greatest strength of Flex is also it's greatest weakness - it is very customizable, and you can set up many aspects in specific ways tailored to your company's workflow. I do appreciate that the software can be set up to store all sorts of data points and pull reports on many of those. We currently do not use the full functionality of Flex because every aspect of business that relies on this software takes more time than necessary.

#### Cons

As of November 2017, the user interface is still Flash-based, meaning it is extremely slow to use. The more items added to a document (quote/contract), the slower it gets both on the account side and warehouse side. Technically, Flex is capable of doing a lot, but every aspect of business that operates in Flex (i.e. quoting, inventory management, purchase orders) takes longer than necessary, resulting in inefficiency overall.

#### Vendor response

Hi There! We apologize you're not 100% satisfied with our product. Here at Flex, we work really hard to create a product that brings value to every aspect of your business. That being said, since we're such a robust piece of software, it does take some customization and training. We would be more than happy to offer you some training so you can make better use of Flex. If you can please email us to training@flexrentalsolutions.com. Also, we're working hard to launch Flex5, more info here: flexrentalsolutions.com/flex5/ The tablet version is already in beta, let me know if you'd like try it out. Thanks for your review!

### Inventory Software Flex Rental Solutions, better than some others

- Overall rating: 4/5
- Reviewer: Verified Reviewer
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Industry: Events Services
- Company size: 51-200 employees
- Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years
- Reviewed: February 2019
- Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.

I've never had to deal with customer service, so that means serious issues have never come up in my over two years working with this software. Flex is a very usable inventory solution, just could use some fine tuning with more input from end users.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 4/5
- Functionality: 3/5

#### Pros

-Easy to learn -Cloud based -Easy to edit quantities in Pull sheets -The ability to enter data in numerous data fields -The ability to change warehouse locations easily

#### Cons

-Flash based design occasionally freezes up -Search function could use fine tuning -Some functions of Flex not used -Doesn't allow scanning an item directly into next order with prompts -Hard to fix input mistakes without roundabout solutions

Puts pretty much everything I need on a day to day basis in one place

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 3/5
- Value for money: 4/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

Ability to track inventory, sales, customers, and costs. Support has also been great and quick to respond with solutions or to look into problems. The user support forum is also filled with people willing to help.

#### Cons

Runs on flash and is hosted in the cloud so the software runs pretty slowly. They are currently working towards HMTL5 but it's still slow. There are other specific functionality flaws that I hope will be addressed with the new release but they are very specific and only relevant to someone currently working with the software day to day.

Great overall solution for AV rental companies with multiple locations/warehouses. Full service for lifecycle of a project (from quotation to invoicing/ shipping)

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5

Flex takes a bit of time to get used to it (the interface), but once you familiarize yourself with daily workflow, it's features and functionality are pretty exceptional for rental AV companies. Smooth flow between quote creation, confirmation, packing list and invoicing between team members.

#### Cons

Their mobile support for a few years was poor (only an iPad application). More recently, an iPhone iOS version has become available which is very useful.

the user manual is ok. Doesnt really help out other than give the basics. I wish there was a more general work flow provided. There is a million different ways to do one thing and it isnt the easiest to figure that out

### Love the software. Very easy to use and grows with the company. Great Tech Support.

- Overall rating: 4/5
- Reviewer: Matt L.
- Industry: Events Services
- Company size: 11-50 employees
- Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years
- Reviewed: April 2018
- Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.

Compared to our previous software this is tremendously beneficial. This makes inventory management and writing quotes much easier.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 4/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

Once its set up, its very fast and easy to write quotes and manage inventory. That process takes a long time to get to, but the tech support is unrivaled. Its incredibly flexible in allowing individual customization which allows us to make our documents look the way we want. We're still learning and tweaking our forms and its great that we can continue to change.

#### Cons

Sometimes the open format and flexibility is TOO much flexibility. Once in a while we'd like to just have a standard way to fix a problem but can't because the issue is unique to the way we've structured our individual set-up. (Fortunately tech support is a life saver here) Also, there are some strange bugs still working out with regards to inventory- items that are scanned out today will show as unavailable for a job in the future simply because FLEX recognizes they aren't currently in the system. Also, there are some strange issues where you have to reload the page once you write notes. Also you have to work around unserialized items or expendables that we would like to track: we have a known quantity that go out and come back (like mic clips) but cannot scan them out without barcoding them.

#### Vendor response

Matt, we're definitely a Flex-ible software and we made it that way intentionally to make sure our users can customize their system for their particular needs. That being said, if there is something not working how you expect, contact support! We're glad you love our software, our software loves you too!

### Daily user, many areas need further development, cannot trust the results presented many times.

- Overall rating: 3/5
- Reviewer: Aaron K.
- Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years
- Reviewed: April 2018
- Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 2/5
- Customer support: 2/5
- Functionality: 3/5

#### Pros

Allows us to schedule our gear without creating major conflicts on the calendar. Accessible on the web without a special local installation.

#### Cons

Where to start? Depending on where or how you start a query, you can receive different results for counts of the same inventory items at the same time. This is just one of many examples that the software seems to be working the same calculations in multiple locations. Overall, it seems like the initial project was poorly planned and implemented by people with low programming experience. The system can be very sluggish, which tech support likes to push off on your internet access. However, Speed Test regularly rates our access very highly, and as a company we do not have trouble with any other software we use on any other site, just Flex. Often when you contact tech support, you get interaction but not a solution. When a gap in the software is discovered, the answer is always that it is a known problem and is "in development." But the improvements never come. Just check the user blog to see the lack of improvement. I also dislike that it uses Flash. Time to get modern!

### Great product! Slow platform !!! STAY AWAY!

- Reviewed: October 2018
- Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered

Everything about flex rental solutions is absolutely awesome with the HUGE exception of how slow their system gets when you build a half way descent size price quote.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 4/5
- Value for money: 4/5
- Customer support: 4/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

It is a very simple intuitive system. Doesn't take a long time to learn it and they have plenty of tutorials on line to help. They also do a descent job responding to customer support emails within 24 hours.

#### Cons

IT IS INCREDIBLY SLOW!!! Building quotes is like pulling teeth. What should take 2 to 3 hours takes about 7 hours to build. We regret using flex every day. They use a flash based system that is outdated and we are told that they will go to a new faster platform when flash is no longer supported. Duh! I guess they will go away from Flash when they are forced to. We were also told that a plan to move away from Flash was in place years ago when we first looked at them and their competition. I'm not here to promote competition but I do regret going down the flex route. It is so slow that we are having serious meeting on what costs we are looking at to transfer to a different rental software!

### Not great. Software is buggy, support is largely "figure it out for yourself" or "wait" for Flex5

Since we have not moved forward with full implementation of the inventory bar coding, etc. I don't believe we have derived any substantial benefits...other then alot of time wasted and delays getting customers quotes.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 2/5

- Customer support: 2/5

#### Pros

Whoever designed the feature set and overall capabilities of the system was pretty brilliant. It lets you do almost anything you can imagine to manage your business how you see fit. HOWEVER...see cons below:

#### Cons

Most of the awesome features and functionality intended are "half baked". They are incomplete, and buggy. The software is extremely slow, taking up to 2 minutes just to add an item to a quote. Software does not do math right. Support team is rude and pushes you to figure it out for yourself. Most bugs and problems cannot be fixed by support because they just tell you they are busy writing Flex 5 and it "may" be fixed in the new version. We think you should not stop fixing bugs in the current version when the new version is largely vaporware. The new Flex 5 is being developed for Mobile and Tablet first...which is ridiculous. No one wants that. We want to sit at our desks and generate quotes quickly without the pain of poor software quality.

We have only been using this software for about 3 years so we are still learning the ins and outs and all the things that this system can do.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 3/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5

#### Pros

Flex has many good features, live inventory, easy to maneuver. Customer support has always been great. The webcasts are extremely helpful. Love the work tree to keep everything in order.

#### Cons

The updating as you go. Sometimes things take a long time to load, and when you change a line in a large quote it takes awhile to load the info. Sometimes it feels like it would be easier to make the quote and then have it save. Also closing POs so that the items come out of the how many ordered column only to have the purchase orders disappear. In the work tree I wish the item you were working on would be highlighted or something to show which one you were working on.

#### Vendor response

Vickie, thanks for the shoutout to our webinars and support. We think they're great, too!

The ability to easily keep track of available inventory for when we are quoting several shows going on at the same time. Also the ability to do quoting, pull sheets, and invoicing all within one program is a nice feature as well!

There is a ton that you can do with the software if you dive into it enough and can learn it all! It helps organize all the inventory in a away that makes it simple to see what is available and what is not to be able to cover each job as needed.

#### Cons

There are things in the software that I wish it would do that it currently cannot, and things that I know it can do, but cant find and just havn't been able to find the time and recall things that have been gone thru in previous Flex Trainging seminars that we have been too etc.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 4/5

Once I figured out all of the powerful tools Flex offers, it makes gear management a breeze. I personally use it to look over booked shows that will go out for delivery. I like that I can easily print out a copy of any show with just a few clicks of the mouse. The lists are usually very detailed so I can be certain that I don't miss anything. Although I do not do it often, booking and entering gear into Flex is fairly straight forward and not too difficult as long as I pay attention to what I am doing. I like the fact that I can print out different types of lists as well, whether it is a gear list, or carnet, all of this makes my life easier.

#### Cons

The most difficult thing with Flex was the learning curve, it took some time to learn how to navigate all of the tools the software has built in.

#### Vendor response

Hi Michael, thanks for submitting such a great review and we're so happy that our software allows you to make your job and your responsibilities much easier!

Ease of access, visual cues for shortages. Also, love the virtual item feature, and the pop stock lists.

#### Cons

There is no way to prioritize which event has control over inventory. All events draw equally on the same inventory. The result is, you can build an event all the way to pull sheets for the warehouse, and another event added to the system can create shortages in the event that is ready to be pulled.

I like that FLEX is highly customizable to fit the needs of individual companies. Not everyone operates the same and FLEX has somehow found a way to make something work for many different companies.

#### Cons

If the software is not set up EXACTLY, the high customization can be a real pain. This is especially true if you are trying to do something different with the software than your company had been doing previously. Years later I am still trying to correct things that were put in incorrectly when we first switched to FLEX. This is a never-ending battle.

#### Pros

Keeping track of inventory, pull sheets and availability of inventory is great. Dragging and dropping items into quotes with auto or insert comes in very handy as well. I am able to organize the crew in a particular order that makes sense to the crew. The auto drag and drop places the correct items into the correct places on a quote be it Audio, Video etc..

#### Cons

Sometimes it is very slow. This might be due to network speeds but it can really be troublesome and slow down progress.

#### Pros

it seems flexible and customizable in terms of adding new products. I like that it is online based and I don't have to be at work to utilize it.

#### Cons

it updates so frequently that it is very slow. I also wish I had more access to training and tutorials. Maybe online tutorials would be great. I feel like flex offers so many more things than we are using it for. I also wish I could receive an email everytime my orders are set to tentative. I wish in calendar/search view you can search by date or month. Like jump to date instead of clicking back by month. I wish it had an app atleast to view things.
