Rentals: Which car rental software would you recommend for rental businesses?
ST
ST
Saurabh Thakur, Startup business adviser and eCommerce consultant answered:

There are many car rental software available in the industry. Most of them are SaaS software that are charged on a monthly recurring basis. While they do provide all basic functionalities, such as a rental booking calendar and returns tracking, they can be highly expensive in the long run.

Let me explain how.

The basic package of a SaaS software starts around $29-$79 per month. However, it comes with various limitations related to the number of users, listings, transactions, and features. Thus, when your business grows, you need to upgrade your package or pay extra. Gradually, the costs increase up to $200-$400 per month, which makes a major portion of your earnings, not to mention the commission that these solutions charge with the cover-up of transaction fees.

The solution? Opt for a self-hosted software that comes at a one-time cost.

Only a few software exist in the industry. Yo!Rent (www.yo-rent.com/car-rental-software.html) is the most recommended one. Its lifetime usage license is available at a one-time cost and it also comes with industry-leading features. To name some, Yo!Rent comes with a booking calendar, rental security collection, tiered pricing option, late returns management, RFQ, document verification, product inspection, rental buffer period, rental add-ons, and more. Being self-hosted, Yo!Rent provides you the option to host the software on your in-house servers or a third-party server such as AWS and Hostgator.

As you get complete control over the server, there can be no restrictions on the number of listings, user profiles, and transactions. YoRent is also fully customizable to support any additional requirements and business models. To provide you with peace of mind, YoRent comes with 12 months of free technical support.

To get hands-on experience, YoRent’s free to explore demos are available on the official website along with one-on-one personalized demos with their sales experts.
