My company has been using Rent Works for as long as I can remember. They tried a couple other programs, and kept switching, unsatisfied with them until they found RentWorks. RentWorks makes things so simple. Booking and scheduling rentals, damages and repairs, billing. It handles everything you need to run a car rental company. Their support staff are top notch. Put in a support ticket, and someone is usually on the phone with you within 10 minutes taking care of your problem. There is a bit of a learning curve with RentWorks, which is to be expected from such a powerful program, but the great thing is they offer excellent training, online, and in person. I doubt you'll ever find a better solution for car rentals.
It handles everything when it comes to car rentals. You don't need a separate program for tracking damages and claims, or repairs. There is a report for just about anything you could think of.
It doesnt maximize the window.

Overall, I have had good experiences with RentWorks compared to other rental software I have used. Their software is very useful and easy to use, other than for Apple products, and it has definitely had a positive influence on the productivity of the company I work for. I also have had very excellent service from their support staff, and for these reasons, I would recommend this product to other companies.
I really liked that the software had numerous features that made my daily duties easier to perform, and for the most part, it was easy to use. I also have had excellent experiences with their support team whenever I have had any issue or have needed to set up a new machine.
I do not like that they do not offer easier ways to install their software on Apple computers or mobile devices. They do provide a workaround that is accessible through an internet browser; however, I have found it not to be very user friendly and is honestly kind of clunky compared to merely opening an application. My only other complaint is that the software eventually times out from the server and either has error messages or needs to be restarted. I understand that there is probably no getting around this, but it should take longer to have issues in my opinion.
Hi Scott, thank you for taking the time to provide your feedback and for the kind words! There is in fact a way to access the software through a browser and the software is also available in the Apple store and the Google Play store. Feel free to get in touch with me if you'd like more details. Francine.Dunn@barsnet.com Thanks again for the feedback!

I run a small fleet of rental cars and it's more than enough. However, my personal opinion is that these people don't care about you or your business. The support is really bad. I have been trying to implement chip and pin for a year and they will not return my emails. They just did an upgrade in the middle of the day that crashed the system and cost me several customers. I'd like to know the genius who made that call. You're fired! My franchise will not let me use another software so I am stuck for now. Don't make the same mistake. In four years of paying support to this company (which they increased by 50% last year without any warning) I have never had a phone call from a sales rep. There are some really good coders there, just need to work on people skills.
Relatively easy to use, lots of features (that we don't use), excellent reporting, solid consistent performance.
The software is fine. Like any software it has its quarks.
Hi David, thank you for taking the time to leave us some feedback, it's certainly appreciated. We're sorry to hear that you've been experiencing issues with support. We'd be happy to discuss the issues you brought up and see how we can resolve them. We'll be in touch with you shortly to discuss a solution. Thanks again for the feedback!

We've been using RentWorks for over a decade and it handles all of our automotive rental contracts, and many aspects of our fleet management and offers great reporting. The interface feels out of date and the workflow is sometimes unintuitive or convoluted, but the customer service reps are good at walking us through how to most effectively work with it when we have questions. Integrated credit card...
The price is right. The reporting engine is good and the fleet management features work well for our needs across 3 locations. We've been working with their web API for a while and with any luck, we'll have online reservations working through our website soon. (They also have a turn-key web reservation system available if you don't need extensive customization.) As the software is under constant development, there is a chance to have your feedback lead to actual changes in upcoming software releases (to the extent your requests are in line with their development goals).
User interface design is a frustratingly low priority. If a feature can technically be said to "work," it won't typically merit the additional development time to integrate it cleanly. The whole interface is designed at a fixed 1024x768 resolution (the same resolution supported by my IBM PS/2 back in 1994) which feels pretty inefficient, requiring simple tasks (eg. checking out a car) to be broken into 6 or more screens that need to be tabbed back and forth between. The print engine is ancient and horrible in every way conceivable. There is no simple installer package, so software installs are unnecessarily complicated and error-prone enough that the company suggests having their customer support log in remotely to install the web client on each computer themselves for a cost.

Everyone is friendly when you call. The staff has always been helpful in any situation. They have worked w/ me on the easy stuff and they do not make me feel like an idiot on simple fixes. I've stumped them before on troublesome issues and they stuck w/ it until the problem was solved. I would like to give a Big Thank you to the rep in Nashville for always helping me w/ a touch of friendly Southern charm and speaking to me at a level that is easily understood.
It's Easy, Fast, and can be customized.
The fact that the Unit # does not show on the payments Screen and that there is no EASY WAY to just go back once you have submitted print.
