Limited visualization options in customer meetings, lack of forecasting functions, complicatedly assembled reports and a lack of overview of your resources challenge you? We know the challenges in the field of leasing very well. Years of experience have made us specialists in numerous industries, such as the rental industry. And it doesn’t matter whether you rent out construction machinery or advertising space.
ERP software for rental:
Your challenges without our cooperation:
You don’t have an exact overview of when which object or which space is rented and for how long? And as a result, it is not possible for you to make reliable statements to your customers at short notice about availability or the exact rental price of the objects? You cannot even think about a flexible and fast co-pricing? Furthermore, you can’t access reliable data for rental forecasting?
That is annoying! Because it could be done much better. It is a decisive competitive advantage if you can quickly hand out reliable information to the potential customer at this point. The good news: We have something for you.
Your challenges summarized:
- imprecise information about availabilities
- difficult rent finding
- unreliable or missing rent forecast
- double data maintenance in several systems
- lack of networking between departments

Too complicated?
Our technology interpreter Theo explains.
Think of it like a burger. You have a base that is the same for every customer. You can make small changes to this base (e.g. different dough shapes such as multi-grain or sourdough). In addition, each customer can put together the toppings as they wish. Depending on preference and need.
This is also the case with our solution. You receive the standard product Dynamics 365 Business Central. We realize many projects in the standard solution – but sometimes small changes are necessary. And in addition, our customers purchase apps from us or our partners.
