Managing your rental inventory

Equipment rental industry

Your rental business’s size and degree of maturity can affect which software platform is the best fit for you. Are you a small startup operating out of your home, a single storefront brick-and-mortar outfit, or a large operation with multiple physical locations?

Quipli is designed for the established operator with one or more locations, or digital-first companies that have strong existing businesses. Quipli is the only one of the three that can meet the more complex needs of large multi-location equipment rental companies.

Construction & equipment rental

Whether you’re a small startup operating out of your garage, or a large operation with more than one physical location, both Quipli and Point of Rental offer more robust solutions than Booqable.

We ran trials with multiple software vendors side-by-side for several months, and there was no comparison to Quipli’s pace of development and customer support. Quipli listens to our needs regularly and shows an excitement to develop requested features. The crew at Quipli has made Arapahoe Rental feel like a partnership and not just another customer.

Quipli is a very easy team to work with and a very rare type of business that really works with you to help you succeed and set up the platform. If you like having options on how your platform works and like to have things customized without having options hidden from you, this is the platform to go with.” Chose Quipli after comparing it to Booqable, EZRentOut, and Rentle (according to Capterra)

Blockquote image

Top notch people. Their customer service is hands down the best. Software is easy to use, and user friendly. Easy to navigate and make adjustments to fit your business. They are constantly adding new features and best of all - they listen to customer feedback for what they do next.

My overall experience has been amazing. I am able to accept orders 24/7. I love that it's cloud based. This allows us to accept orders on the fly.

We use Quipli for our small, family owned equipment rental business. Through Quipli we are able to enter, track, and rent equipment to customers with ease. The Quipli team is also phenomenal to work with! If it is a big issue they will call or set up one-on-one Zoom meeting to discuss a solution to the problem!
