Alert Rental
Alert is very suited to the rental industry in general. We struggled a bit at the beginning with multiple locations for the rental business but eventually were able to make that work very well for us, especially helpful when tracking profit for each location. It is less suited to the wholesale business that is also owned here, but there have been ways to make it work for that as well. Overall, Alert is fairly user-friendly and reasonably easy to learn.

It works well for all size of companies that do equipment rentals, large and small. I am sure small companies will find the free version really useful and large companies theulti depot and customisation features.
