### "The relationship outshines the product! "

April 11, 2025

5.0

There are two important factors: 1. The Coastr team and 2. The platform. The team at Coastr is who you want in your corner. They are always actively looking for new ways to develop the product, speak with users on how it benefits the company and its renters. Honestly, there was a down cycle in the business and every step of the way the Coastr team worked with me. When the business is up they are supportive when understanding my vision and how we can get there. It is evident the team works from values to help users grow, manage and fine-tuned the business. The platform is exactly what I needed. It does everything I need it to do and more. I am always finding out new things available, mainly because they are proactive in finding new features that will benefit its users. I easily train my team on the platform. They provide more than enough support when issues or training is required.

Pros

Everything is in-house. The experience is seamless from start to finish which makes it easy to manage and easy for customers to get going.

Cons

In need of a more trackable way for 'do not rent' customers.

October 21, 2021

5.0

Have to say its been a pleasure to work with them, they listen well and always deliver above what is expected.

Pros

I like that they have thought about making it easy to use but have all feature the features other leading rental software platforms.

Cons

Can't say there are any as they always take on and feedback and suggestion and implement in a short time.

### "Commendable Support"

September 8, 2023

Our overall experience with the team at Coastr was really great. It was the first time in all the years that I have been dealing with software suppliers, that a team was so supportive to assist in onboarding a client in a very niche industry.

Pros

Cons

### "Reliable Platform with Outstanding Support"

April 11, 2025

5.0

My overall experience with Coastr has been excellent — the platform is user-friendly and the support team is consistently helpful and responsive.

Pros

A support team that's always ready to assist with absolutely anything.

Cons

Inability to add or remove add-ons from live bookings, resulting in limited flexibility to make changes during an active reservation.

### "A Growing + Special System"

February 26, 2024

5.0

My overall experience has been mixed however that is down to me as someone who is new to the industry and completely new to a rental agreement system in general. The system offers some incredible features and I really hope I can make the most of these when I have time to explore. The customer experience has been incredible and I feel extremely valued by Coastr which makes a big difference.

Pros

I think once you learn all the features and products of the Coastr system then its a developing and exciting product that becomes easier to use and manage. I am still far from knowing all what the system can do and there is regular updates which offer more to both me and the customer. I have received hours of help from \[sensitive content hidden\]. These two people inparticular have been incredible and gone far beyond the level and time of help any user should need. I often e-mail or call when I have an issue and it gets resolved extremely quickly, often with advice and set out points in how to resolve the issue myself the next time. I can honestly say the customer service I have received from these two people have kept me using the system.

Cons

I think for my particular business with less customers but more long term contracts and high number of vehicles per customer it became harder to set up as I wasn't able to attach any initial phots to the bookings. This obviously makes life difficult when they come back and there is damage however I understand the reasons behind this. Everytime a new booking is made the process is simple and effective. I also really wish they could link PCN (penalty charge notices) to the site.

Reason for choosing Coastr

The introduction to Coastr by \[sensitive content hidden\] was excellent and I made my mind up very early I didn't need to look elsewhere.

### "Highly recommend "

December 2, 2022

5.0

When I moved over from a ‘paper based’ system, it was seamless and I had one-on-one support at every turn. Unrivalled pricing and customer support. Regularly implemented updates, based on user experience. Fantastic product.

Pros

Straightforward setup/implementation. Fully supported throughout the process. 24/7 cloud based access.

Cons

No major drawbacks so far, not all features in use in my business.

### "Coastr review "

March 4, 2021

5.0

My aim is to go contactless/digital and with Coastr I think this will be possible. They know what they are doing and what is required in the rental industry.

Pros

The product is easy to implement into my day to day business. The fact all of my day to day softwares such as billing, vehicle tracking & inventory is all in one software which reduces my cost and run the business knowing I am only dealing with one company who is providing all of these services for a small fee.

Cons

As I am a mobile company I may not have my desktop with me at all times and may need to process a booking from my mobile app which I believe they will be implementing this year.

### "Loch garage"

August 25, 2021

5.0

It has made van bookings more professional, and aftersales have been excellent with help and advice only a phone call away.

Pros

Time saving and all the information that can be collected and accessed with ease is priceless.

Cons

In the app when booking back in there is no reference to the miles out and miles back in , would be good if you could have this set up to take payment for excess mileage directly on the app and print receipt .

### "Carol Baldwin - Herd Hire"

January 26, 2021

5.0

Supportive, professional in all departments I have had the pleasure of dealing with. Staff takes time to understand our needs and offers solutions at no additional cost.

Pros

Ease of use. Great functionalities. Level of support from the team whilst trialling and the commitment they provide to ensure the software is tailored to your business needs.

Cons

There is nothing to dislike. I feel Coastr have identified pitfalls from competitors software to offer a slick system that is always evolving in new technology.

Reason for choosing Coastr

Our current product is dated and we require a system that will support the business growth going forward. We believe Coastr product will provide this service, along with updated functionalities which are pivotal to our business.
