Trusted by rental businesses everywhere
“I told my web developers that this program is awesome, and that other businesses should really give you guys a look before spending thousands elsewhere. This rental system has been a lifesaver for me. It’s been working perfectly — absolutely perfectly.”
“Our company does sound production and rentals. Before this software became available, we tried pretty much every SaaS option out there. Once we found this one, all of our needs were filled — a huge relief to know high quality, affordable rental software exists. Highly recommended!”
“My experience for over 10 years with Sales Igniter has been wonderful. The inventory tracking system is the most valuable feature for us — any rental business needs to track their inventory accurately every day, and Sales Igniter’s is the best. I would recommend it to anyone running a rental store.”
“I have been using Sales Igniter for about 7 years since migrating from an information-only website to a fully functional rental booking site. It makes it so much easier to run my holiday hire business: customers book and pay online, the admin backend is comprehensive, and the inventory tracking is invaluable.”
