Hiretrack

Excellent at all times.

PROS

The software is cloud-based so makes access easy from any location for our users.

CONS

Standard reports are great, some new fuller detailed reports would be beneficial

Reason for choosing HireHop

Ease of fit for purpose and for end user ease of operation.

Reasons for switching to HireHop

Hiretrack was an inherited and outdated software that fell behind in terms of business requirements.

Vendor Response

Thanks for a great review. Please give us a call regarding anymore reports you feel might be beneficial as we add new reports quite regularly due to suggestions from users. Also it's always good to talk with you guys. Take care

Great.

PROS

Easy asset management. Quick overview of where your gear is located and current condition.

CONS

Overview of all projects/jobs. I would like to collect data on how much certain items has been used on different projects. Different options to collect overall data.

Reason for choosing HireHop

User friendly

Reasons for switching to HireHop

To be able to have multiple warehouses/depos

Vendor Response

Thanks for a great review. There is a report called "Stock Utilisation" that tells you how much different items of your stock have been used. You can then drill down to see what jobs have used them with a graph showing you the frequency over time. We are also really happy to look at adding more reports, so if there is something else you need and feel that others would use it, please tell us, as we add reports due to users suggestions quite regularly. Take care

HireHop Review

Quicker quoting and PO'ing process.

PROS

Easy to use, cloud based, integrated with accounts package.

CONS

PO's don't copy as a draft when repeating a job. No feature to remember a sub-hired in price for a regular item.

Reason for choosing HireHop

At the time of purchase, no ability to PO from Current RMS. Had also been a previous user of HireHop at previous employment.

Reasons for switching to HireHop

Cloud Based, tied in with an office move

Vendor Response

Thanks for the positive review. In answer to your cons, we have got in the pipeline to copy PO's and more to duplicate jobs, and we are looking at ways to remember sub-hire prices, however the latter has proved to be problematic due to other companies, as sometimes the sub hire price can be different for varied reasons. For instance, the other company could operate a 3 day week, your last hire was for 3 days and the new one is for 5 days. As HireHop doesn't know the pricing structure of the other company, it can't guess or calculate an accurate price. Also there is the matter of discount, special circumstances, weekend rates, etc., all of which make it impossible for HireHop to guess how a company you are going to hire from will charge. The last thing we want to do is to generate inaccurate information, thus this is still a work in progress to find a adequate solution, but rest assured it is on our radar to come up with one, and any ideas are greatly appreciated. Take care.

1 stop, hirehop!

Love it!

PROS

I can access stock, provide a quote and book a job from anywhere with 4G..., the check out/in process is simple for all to follow which has almost eradicated errors, the new Xero integration has saved so much time once the job is done.

CONS

Only my knowledge is the least thing I like, there is a way for you to do anything required with HH, just ask [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] and it will be done!

Reason for choosing HireHop

Used HH previously, we swapped from another software, it significantly reduced the errors we were making and enabled us rely on our stock with confidence.

this has saved me hours on quotes. paperwork. it just creates from my templates in a few clicks. and half the templates are even done for me.

PROS

this software is simple to use. customise. the times ive had questions ive just emailed them and they get back to me very fast

CONS

I'm not completely sure how to input all my pat test data in. but that could just be me.

Reason for choosing HireHop

price, recommendation. the fact i could actually trial it for more than 30days. meant i could input a lot before i had the workload to pay for it. else other software I'd have paid 2 or 3 months while inputting before been able to go live with it

Vendor Response

Thanks for a great review. Please contact HireHop's free support and we will be more than happy to talk you through different ways of uploading your test results data or how to manually enter them, whichever your preference.

Really happy with HireHop!

HireHop has really improved our workflow and has solved issues we were having such as multi-site use. The team are really friendly and helpful and we love that we can just give them a quick call if we have any questions.

PROS

HireHop has all the functionality we need to help run our business. We have found that it really speeds up and improves our workflow and keeps us on top of everything. It was an easy migration from our previous software too. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend HireHop to anyone.

CONS

Haven't found an issue that the HireHop team couldn't fix

Reason for choosing HireHop

Cheaper, UK based, more functionality.

Reasons for switching to HireHop

Flexible Rental Software for a Fast Moving Industry

We manage several thousand assets that are seasonally rented to around 40 productions. They all leave the warehouse within the space of 30 days and return within an equally tight time frame. Therefore we were looking for a computerisation system that would aid the control and checking of our workflow, whilst being easy to implement, easy to learn, could work with multiple concurrent users and would allow seasonal workers to be added with a minimum of cost and hardware. Before selecting HireHop we ran demos of several of the market leading inventory management and rental software solutions. There are several packages to choose from, including several that have been tailored to the entertainment industry. HireHop quickly stood above the rest as it has been specifically developed by people who have worked in the hire/rental side of the entertainment industry. Therefore some of the processes have been designed to match the workflow, rather than having to change the workflow to match the processes and caveats of a computerised system. More and more software is becoming subscription based (as opposed to outright purchase of a licence). As part of looking at various software packages we calculated the initial setup costs as well as the ongoing running costs. Had we purchased licenses for an alternative piece of software outright, we would have also needed to purchase a server and when the support period ended we would have needed to purchase additional support. The outright purchase of a licence also tends to have a limit in terms of how long you can get free updates before you need to purchase new licenses for the next version of the software. HireHop is web based on a monthly subscription, therefore we had no server purchase costs, it can be accessed from a low spec device with internet access and a web browser, we have ongoing support, ongoing updates and we can add additional users at any time for a short period (e.g. a busy month). HireHop manages to pack a lot of functionality into a clean and easy to use interface, the support team have been fantastic at talking us through any queries and every time we talk to them we find out about another piece of functionality and way of doing things. In addition they will take requests for additional functionality with a view to implementation in order to better the service. If you have come across HireHop, I suggest that you take advantage of the free trial to see what it can do for you!

PROS

Great customer Service. Ability to add additional users quickly and easily (without high licence costs). High reliability/uptime of the web servers. Multiple users can concurrently check in/out a job. Auto generation of paperwork (PAT reports, pack sheets, etc.). Paperwork can be customised both through the web interface and with an HTML editor. Easy to enter equipment/data. Has the option of using it to promote your equipment for rental. A failure of IT hardware in our warehouse (power, internet connection, computer terminal, etc.) would not cause us to stop working as we can log in through the web browser on our phone/4G dongle.

CONS

There are no cons that I can think of, we have come across a few minor things in use, but this has been down to us trying to do something bizarre or unusual. The team at HireHop have been on hand to talk us through things to work out what we have done and bring us right back to where we needed to be. We have just sent a big job abroad and the carnet documentation required serial numbers for assets. The system had no easy/obvious way to add the serial number to the auto generated paperwork. A quick phone call to HireHop and half an hour later the required fieldset had been added and I was able to use this to create a custom paperwork template that would generate a list of items checked out to a job along with their barcode, serial number, description, PAT and service status. A con quickly became a positive. This level of support really makes me glad that we chose the software solution over the alternatives.

Vendor Response

Thanks guys. We are proud to be able to work with such a well known, established and respected company like yours.

Its been a revelation to our company the best assest management system we have implemented and we've tried a fair few over the years.

PROS

Easy to use and great support from the team. Adapting to our specific needs has been an easy process and now feels like our system.

CONS

A few functionality issues but nothing that causes any concern as you'd expect from any complex system.

Reason for choosing HireHop

Reasons for switching to HireHop

Tracking this wasn't very good, we had switched from Hiretrack and the process was proving troublesome so we went back to the market and discovered Hirehop.

Incredible software along with an Amazing support team

We've been looking for a long time to find a cloud based system to support our 50+ users and 3 locations. Nothing on the market met our needs but more importantly as we explored the alternatives none of the hire system providers were particularly interested in listening to our needs. This is where Hirehop are different. Within minutes of talking with them it was obvious that they were prepared to listen, open to suggestions and their support team guided us through the process of migrating our database across. The features Hirehop offers are fantastic, From the drag and drop abilities of the supplying list to the comprehensive stock checking module, the workflow has been properly considered and just works really well. A good software package is one thing but finding a company with great software and great support is another. I would highly recommend Hirehop. Give them a call and they will provide a demo system and then software experts (not salesmen) to support you with training, getting you up to speed.

PROS

Great support, Fantastic Features

CONS

To be honest nothing. If we have found something we don't like then we have been able to share our thoughts and Hirehop have provided solutions.

Vendor Response

Thanks for the great review. We found that so many other products are grossly overpriced and extort as much money from users as possible, something we never want to do, thus HireHop is very fairly priced, and good pricing makes happy customers.

Hi Chris, thanks for the great review. The 365 integration is super simple, you don't need passwords, etc. just your email and that's it, the rest is all automatic.

Vendor Response

Thanks for a great review. We have tried to automate as much of the setup as possible, as well as having Excel data import facilities, but we can't guess everything and unfortunately setting your company up can take an hour or more depending on your records. However, we do offer to do much of this for free for subscribed users, so many customers are up and ready well within an hour.
