It’s grown amazingly but very subtly over the years, and is a tool we could not function without. Pros It’s designed by people who clearly know the industry and the pressures on the people using their software. Cons I wish it would integrate with online booking systems Review Source AF Alex F. General Manager Motion Pictures and Film Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Enjoying our experience but room for improvement" March 12, 2024 4.0 Overall we are very happy with current-rms and the few cons are vastly outweighed by the pros of the system. It's a good fit for our company and it's been a pleasure to use for these past ~5 years. Pros The UI and UX on current-rms is fantastic and very intuitive. It's very easy for us to onboard new hires onto the system and the support materials and tutorials online are good. It has a good level of functionality for our needs and does almost everything we need to operate our business. The cloud based design is also very convenient and the ability to customize documents within the software ourselves is very appreciated. It is also great to see new features and improvements consistently implemented. It's a joy to use everyday! Cons My biggest area of frustration with current-rms are with the inventory checking module and functionality, while it does work it's very bare bones and when we do our annual inventory check it's constantly causing us headaches and we often have to use other tools simultaneously (spreadsheets, documents etc.) to properly keep track of where we are in the inventory check process. The way the inventory module is laid out makes it very difficult to look up the status of a specific item during an inventory check. My other frustration is the lack of custom reports, you can create custom fields and lists of values, however reporting on those is not possible, we had to hire an outside developer to implement a tool via the API in order to achieve the full functionality we needed for our business. The software would be pretty much perfect in my mind if it had a robust inventory checking module and the ability to do custom reporting.

The integrations with quickbooks and the open API were also selling features for us. Switched from [Studio Hero](https://www.capterra.com/p/210879/Studio-Suite/) Studio Suite's rental module was a frankenstein mess and when I started at the company one of my first priorities was to switch us to a more robust system that met all our needs and would allow us to grow in the future. Current-rms met those needs. Review Source BE Bernard E. Senior Facilities Manager Broadcast Media Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great Software for Small to Medium Rental Companies, with major drawbacks once you grow" July 16, 2024 3.0 I have recommended Current RMS to many companies in the past (who are now also Current RMS users). However I have not been able to recommend Current RMS recently as I feel like the development has come to a complete halt. New features take months to be released (if at all), and old releases are still in Beta and in desperate need of updates. Currently in the market for an alternative solution with more advanced features, and a better development lifecycle. Pros Current RMS is great if you need a simple, one-stop solution for a small or medium sized rental company with basic feature requirements. Their support team is very efficient and helpful. Great documentation and easy to integrate with other products, either via built-in integrations or the API. Cons They have been very slow to implement new major improvements to the system, especially given the extensive list of feature requests by the community. Mobile application is terrible, and there are long periods where no features are released at all. Current RMS was designed to be as universal as possible, which is both a positive and negative. Reporting function needs a lot of work, and is currently BASIC. Review Source Response from Current RMS August 2, 2024 Many thanks for taking the time to leave a review Bernard - we really appreciate it! We are always looking for customer feedback on Current RMS, so please feel free to leave your comments and votes on this link: https://wishlist.current-rms.com/tabs/1-under-consideration. As we have 2500+ businesses using Current RMS, we prioritise development in line with the highest votes/commented features. In the last few months we have released Company Wide 2FA, Posting POs to Xero, Warehouse Notes, and Alternative Products, alongside many quality-of-life updates. As the system becomes more advanced, some developments may take a little longer due to the increased testing, but rest assured, we are continuously working hard and are committed to improving Current RMS! We would love to hear more from you on how you think Current RMS can be improved. Please email your ideas to help@current-rms.com, and our dedicated product team can discuss these with you :) SJ Sarah J. Production Manager Events Services Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Easy to implement software" March 7, 2024 5.0 Overall, happy with the software. The only times we've had struggles, it was down to us needing more training rather than the system itself. Pros 30 day trial - Full ability to try the software before making a commitment to it The price includes YouTube videos and live zoom sessions The support team gave me import templates to easily upload my equipment Not locked into any contracts Can access the system on mobile whilst out on the road Ability to speak to the support team instantly on the phone Cons There's been a couple of times I haven't had the response I wanted from support, but when I escalate this, the senior members of the team are very knowledgeable and happy to help. Alternatives considered [HireHop](https://www.capterra.com/p/155333/HireHop/) Reason for choosing Current RMS There was more self-serve content available for us to implement the software ourselves Review Source JC Jesse C. Managing Director Events Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Our Experience with Current RMS" March 13, 2024 5.0 Current RMS has been great for us so far, but we make up for the lack of pretty key features like payment integration, and online booking with lots of hours of extra admin and processes that we'd love to see automated and integrated into Current, to make it streamlined for our customers and free us up to spend time improving our business rather than maintaining it by being buried under lots of computer time. Pros Current RMS provides our company with a great asset management tool and the necessary systems to ensure that stock is managed well by our team and delivered properly to our clients. Cons It would be great to see a credit card payment link integrated into the invoices produced by Current, much like Xero integrates a payment link using Stripe on the invoices it produces. This would reduce steps in the workflow for our administration team and reduce confusion with our customers. Currently we have to post an invoice in current and then generate another invoice in Xero to create a credit card payment link when our customers want to pay that way. Another issue that would be great to see resolved is part payments. When a customer pays a deposit and it is credited towards the invoice, it would be ideal if the next invoice that is generated automatically takes what has been paid and applies it to the invoice so that when the outstanding amount invoice is generated, it shows the amount left owing automatically. Currently it seems that it needs to be worked out manually. Another feature that we are desperate to see is website integration for online bookings. Currently we have a website that accepts equipment orders, then we get the order and have to manually add it to Current RMS. The issue is that customers can't check if the product is actually available before booking, can't book for multiple days and have to wait for us to check and confirm the order after we've manually done it on Current. We would gladly pay more for the service if this feature was integrated, much like what Booqable offers, but with the features that Current provides. Alternatives considered [RentalMan](https://www.capterra.com/p/130099/RentalMan-ERP/)[Booqable](https://www.capterra.com/p/138689/Booqable/) Reason for choosing Current RMS Referral from industry friends who use Current to manage their event businesses. Switched from [Xero](https://www.capterra.com/p/120109/Xero/) We needed more accurate asset management and check in and out processes to ensure stock is returned and managed properly, not being double booked etc. Review Source YE Yke E. Technical Director Broadcast Media Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Keep up the development. " March 21, 2024 4.0 Overall I am happy with Current-RMS. Stability is good. Support is Pros I like Current-RMS for rental, but what they do good is to make use of strong integration partners and not try to invent everything themselves. Cons There has been a long period of no development and new features. It seems to be picking up now. Some obvious functions are still not in there. They are on the 'under consideration' list but would love to see them released. Alternatives considered [Rentman](https://www.capterra.com/p/144616/Rentman/)[inspHire](https://www.capterra.com/p/86964/inspHire/) Reason for choosing Current RMS Current covered the most important features needed and the import and export functions are very open. Review Source Ellis T. Director Entertainment Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great potential" June 30, 2022 5.0 A really good solution with an excellent price compared to many software options. Very easy to use and simple to expand and contract as needed. No huge investments required. A few areas to keep improving. Hopefully the changes can keep up. Pros The software is easy to use and full of features. Really well suited to straightforward rentals and a small to medium business. Cloud based makes it excellent from a hardware requirements and access point of view. Cons There are areas that need more flexibility especially once you want to move away from the basic to anything more complex. It can be difficult to make it work to your own business rather than as per the original.

Switched from [HireTrack NX](https://www.capterra.com/p/78309/HireTrack-NX/) Original Hiretrack was outdated so needed to upgrade and all options were considered. Review Source JH John H. CEO Staffing and Recruiting Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great software for small business" March 12, 2024 4.0 Overall current has worked for us, as we continue to grow we shall see if it can scale with us. I do have concerns that it wont based on previous feedback to the team. Pros Easy to use for the most part, team is accessible to chat with. Cons Scheduling and resource planner get very cluttered with multiple stores. The feedback doesn’t really seem to matter when we reach out to the team, its always the same response. Review Source SW Sean W. President Entertainment Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Awesome for Gear, Light on Crew" March 12, 2024 4.0 Very good! The team is wonderful and the platform works well for what the designers intended it to do. We are just looking for a little more complete ecosystem, and I’ve been asking them to make additional developments to make our lives easier. Pros The inventory, rental management part of it is excellent! Cons The crew scheduling needs quite a bit of love. Also, the ability to get all of the information that has been put into current out of it needs significant help. Like a crew app with all the details and docs would be life changing!

CFO Events Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Good Product" March 12, 2024 4.0 Overall, we are very happy with the product and continue to customize it as we grow. Pros It creates a single platform to view all rentals, management equipment and interface with the clients. Integration with other apps, such as Quickbooks, is crucial. Cons It is expensive to have our entire crew as users to use the scheduling function. Setting up of the dates in each opportunity is cumbersome.Most events are on the same day. Having to change the delivery date, charging start date, charging end date, and the pick up date every time is tedious. Reason for choosing Current RMS The combination of price and ease of use made the difference to go with Current RMS Review Source MK Mark K. Managing Director Events Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Ever evolving software solution." April 4, 2017 5.0 Current is a great product that has been working really well for us. Since we started with Current over 2 years ago we have seen it evolve. As a result of this when a new feature is released it needs to be managed within your organisation as some will use it in a different way than you might. Any process you may have developed before any new feature release that carries out the same function may need to have its migration managed. It is a moving feast and as such needs to be managed for this reason only I give it 4 for ease of use. Pros Cloud based and evolving. Excellent Support. Cons Because it evolves your processes need to as well. Sometimes there is just not the time to do this and it can lead to different work practices within the organisation. Review Source Response from Current RMS April 5, 2017 Hi Mark, Thanks for your review and advice - we love the title, Current is indeed ever evolving. A lot has been added into Current since launch back in September 2014, which is close to when you came onboard. However all new features added into Current are carefully considered so that they don't disrupt existing processes if companies are not ready to take advantage of new updates. As we appreciate every business experiences different demands. I hope we were able to provide you with some useful guidance on the telephone today regarding further streamlining processes across the team, ensuring everyone is working in the same manner. Using Recent Actions and Recent Documents within Current is really beneficial as you can check to ensure everyone is working in the same way. Also, please remember all support and training is part of the package so if you decide to change a process or need to provide training on new features, we're here to help with that.

This program has everything: inventory, booking, invoicing… Amazing Cons To change some forms its a little dificult until you get the hang of it. Review Source RD Rupert D. Co-owner/Technical Director Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Massive leap forward in rental management but some flaws still taking a long time to iron out" February 7, 2018 4.0 It works well, and whilst not being 100% intuitive, is way easier to pick up than any of the alternatives we looked at. Pros Great features and clean interface, online chat support and feature request function. Decent pricing. Cons Some sections could still be a lot more advanced (I'm thinking of the costings and reports sections) and there are some small but constant niggles that could be really easy to iron out (like having to click onto another page from the Opportunity page to find a client's phone number). Updates do come and are prioritised based on a customer voting system but they take a looooong time compared to how often most phone apps are updated. Review Source Response from Current RMS February 13, 2018 Hey Rupert, thanks for taking the time to leave us a review. We understand that there may still be some features in Current that you would like to see, and our developers are working hard to constantly implement ideas that the industry want. Every business is different, so we find that our Wishlist is the best way to see what each of our customers want the most and implement the ideas with the highest votes. I appreciate that there are some areas of the system that you think could be more advanced and easier to manoeuvre your way around, so I will certainly pass these on to our development team. Updating a phone app is very different to updating an entire rental management system, often the changes within phone apps are bug fixes, or minor changes to the system. We prefer quality of updates over quantity, and this means that sometimes some of the updates can take a little bit longer to push out. We look forward to adding more features throughout 2018 to help your business. JC Jonathan C. Managing Director Events Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Our whole process has been greatly streamlined by this great bit of software" July 18, 2018 5.0 Pros SO easy to use - very little training required Easily customisable to suit most of our needs Great customer service (we had one glitch where one of the developers spent about three weeks working on something for us but then swore blind it couldn't be done - then spoke to someone else who had it fixed exactly how we needed and took him only 5 minutes!) New features constantly added - forever evolving for the better Asset tracking and management is a breeze They attend all the industry shows so it's always easy to meet face-to-face to discuss things - everyone is so friendly - you feel like you are dealing with people who properly understand your needs Cons These are only very minor points and should in no way detract from how great this software is: Some features take a lot longer to materialise than others - the reason for this is completely understandable but that doesn't make it any less annoying Data import/export is a bit clunky - it would be great to be able to make edits to databases without having to download them and upload them Access/permission levels are set by user level and not individually by login Outlook integration could be better Review Source Response from Current RMS July 19, 2018 Thanks for your brilliant review Jonathan and great to hear you're enjoying the new updates we've been working hard on. We look forward to catching up at Plasa London later this year :-) KP Ketan P. Director Hospitality Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Best Rental Management System on the Market at the Moment" April 21, 2017 5.0 We were in need of changing our system so reviewed various until we came across Current RMS with Xero integration. We now have a system that allows us to quote, book orders, manage and report stock availability, check out and in orders and manage losses. Integration with Xero allows us to seamlessly create invoices from the orders and post to Xero (now our accounts system), take payments, invoice for losses and complete the rental cycle all from any device at any time. We have improved efficiency of our operation and confidence when taking orders and quoting. The application's dashboard summarises the day's activities which for us is invaluable. Current RMS have the best support team with an application interface that is a breath of fresh air. We love using it! Pros We love the design of the product with it's modern interface. It does the job well (probably like other systems) but it just seems more user friendly and more attractive to use. Cons There is not much that we don't like. If I had to pick something, it would be to improve the speed at which we can enter order lines. Review Source Response from Current RMS July 11, 2017 Wow thanks Ketan, this is such a lovely review. You'll be pleased to know a new "quick add" feature is going to be released very soon, allowing you to add line items onto quotes and orders without going into the picker. Keep your eyes peeled for the update message on this one. Thanks SL Sean L. Owner Events Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "The most modern, flexible solution by far." February 8, 2017 5.0 An absolutely brilliant product! We really don't have enough good things to say about it. Coming from the old finicky locally hosted hire tracking system that was industry standard for a while and having tried other modern web-based solutions, we have settled in with Current and their team and have absolutely no intentions of going anywhere else. The flow of the system is fresh and takes into account the flow of how companies in our industry operate these days, blowing the other offerings out of the water. In addition, the staff at Current could not be more helpful. We absolutely love the quick turnaround time for questions and the helpful, friendly responses from their incredibly knowledgeable staff members. The ability to suggest new features and see them implemented throughout the system is also huge. If you are in the market for a new hire system, I strongly recommend checking out Current RMS. Drop them a line and get a personal demonstration of the system. You won't be disappointed! Pros \- Flexibility - Powerful - Ease of use - API Integration - Accounting Integration Cons \- null Review Source Response from Current RMS February 9, 2017 Wow, thanks so much for taking the time to write this brilliant review, Sean!

Current has sorted this" July 10, 2017 5.0 Pros The best part of Current is that it is nearly a complete business solution. It integrates seamlessly with xero. The inventory tracking is great. and the portability of the software being in the cloud is just awesome. Cons There is literally no deal breakers here. and there system for improvement requests is really good. Some sort of PAT testing module which tracks when things need to be retested would be very handy. Review Source Response from Current RMS July 11, 2017 Thanks for your brilliant review Aaron and great to hear how Current is managing the growth of your business. A PAT testing module is certainly in the pipeline, as it's gaining more and more votes. We have an array of new features we're looking to implement soon, so I can't give you an exact date for when we'll start building the testing and maintenance feature, however I'll make a note to contact you as soon as we know more. In the meantime, we do have an open API, so you can look into integrating this with a PAT testing system if it's something you need sooner rather than later. Thanks again HM Holly M. Studio Assistant Food & Beverages Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Great customer service" April 15, 2024 5.0 Pros The customer service is fantastic, with the team always responding quickly and solving any issues we encounter. Cons We have not encountered any issues yet, as we are still inputing data into the system before implementing it across all our jobs. Review Source Response from Current RMS April 19, 2024 Thanks for the review Holly!

Managing Director Events Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great, customizable product administered by friendly people!" November 28, 2019 5.0 Pros The ease of which quotes, availability and documents are produced plus it is linked to Xero! Cons The Calendar functionality and display isn't the best and having to create Organisations instead of private contacts to create a quote is a bit strange. Reason for choosing Current RMS Recommended by Academy Furniture Hire. Review Source Response from Current RMS November 29, 2019 Hi Tristan, thanks so much for taking the time to leave us a review! DE Duncan E. Sales and marketing manager Events Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Excellent product all round" January 18, 2017 5.0 As a company we tested several RM systems and the benchmark was how they compared to CURRENT. Great functionality and easy to use. The service the CURRENT team provide is second to none and very receptive to onward development. The system has allowed us to streamline the rental process and the ability to clone past events is very useful. Being a cloud based system is also useful as staff are able to log in with ease at home and on site. As for price point, you get a premium product for much less then expected. Pros Great functionality, support and price. Cons We are still trying to find the negative points! Review Source Response from Current RMS January 19, 2017 Thanks so much for your lovely review Duncan, we're so lucky to have such innovative companies like Flying Hire on board with Current :-) LB Lez B.

Incredible support (best of any supplier) and they have an obvious desire to consistently be awesome, expand the software and ultimately help the end-user. This is the team to back for CRM.

Its a colourful well laid out cloud software you can easily access from your own desktop through a standard web browser or in costa coffee on any other device. You can quickly manage equipment, pull of equipment preparation lists, assign staff to jobs, send invoices to clients and prepare quotations.
