Easy to setup with great support.

5.0 4 years ago

Pros:

The integration of invoicing and inventory management is the best of the software we have used, and the customization of document templates allows us to provide our clients with professional documents with exactly the right amount of information.

Cons:

There are some features that need work on kit and case building but with that said the rentman team are continually listening to the end user and implementing requests.

A great (nearly) all in one solution for the event industry. Better then the competition!

4.0 2 years ago

Comments: I used to use Current RMS, however, I moved to Rentman as it has a better system and backbone.
It makes more sense with the layouts and with time can become a powerful tool for the business.
I've had this for about 1-2 years and still learning new things, but as a small company, it's not been a quick setup.
I do however love the support that Rentman offer and they are always listening and improving, which is why I 100% recommend Rentman. They are working on this product for us and the changes are always coming in. I love using Rentman and seeing the bugs corrected and fixed as it gets better and better.

Pros:

- Great customer support. Very quick and helpful. -Easy flowing steps for creating projects. Very powerful. -Can create nice documents....(just need alot of time). -Always moving forward company and listening to the users for the direction they will take.

Cons:

-Hard and slow learning curve. -The interface looks a little dated, needs a modern refresh. -Still has many bugs, from language bugs to just things that don't work as smoothly as I would hope. -CRM is lacking and needs a bit more work. -Would be great to see short "how to" videos of tips and tricks.

Alternatives Considered: Flex

Reasons for Choosing Rentman: Current RMS was just not very nice to setup projects, you always have to jump from page to page, where as Rentman you can work all within one page easy.

Switched From: Current RMS

Reasons for Switching to Rentman: The support is amazing. It's features are getting built and released very quickly. It's by far the most powerful out of the products and software I've looked at.

Rentman Rules!

5.0 2 months ago

Comments: 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.

confusing user interface

3.0 6 years ago

Pros:

Nice functions, online based, electronic signature at offers, easy to create invoices without project,

Cons:

settings are often not individual adjustable like First Day of Work in hours counter for new employes or national holidays. Its not possible to set a sabbatical for a employee in the hours counter Creating forms is very difficult. Finding Projects by name is very complicated

Rentman Response

Hey Josephine, thanks a lot for taking the time to review Rentman and your honest feedback. We are sorry to hear that some functions of Rentman are not clear to you yet. It would be great if you could let us know what parts of the interface are confusing for you as we just recently updated the whole interface to fit even better with the workflow of event and production rental companies. Our intention is to keep the options for staff administration understandable and easy-to-use for everyone. To ensure we offer an intuitive product for all users, we choose not to focus on workforce administration after time registration. Instead we aim to optimize Rentman so that it can be seamlessly used with dedicated staff administration software. Also, please remember that free support and training are included in every Rentman package. Give us a call when you need help setting up forms so that one of our support experts can guide you through it. Thanks again!
