POINT-OF-RENTAL™ Software is menu driven and designed to fit the equipment rental process.  Even if you have used other rental management software, it does take time to get comfortable with it and to appreciate all the features.  Experienced rental counter personnel will be writing simple contracts in thirty minutes or less.  Learning all the nuances of rental and sale transaction processing including sales, quotes, reservations, billing and purchase orders generally requires about eight hours.

In addition to transaction processing, the software is designed to comprehensively manage your business and learning these features including accounts receivable, inventory control and database management requires an additional day.

The amount of training time required is dependent upon the size of your company and the depth of our system capabilities that you require.  A small rental store with 2-10 employees and at a single location can be functionally trained in two days.  A larger operation will take more time simply due to the number of employees and the increased demands of multiple-locations.

Training time is purchased along with the initial system and the number of days is determined by the salesperson and your company.  Additional training can be purchased at a later date for enhancing your company’s capabilities or to train new employees.  The first 90 days of our toll free telephone software support service are included at no additional cost with the initial purchase of your initial POINT-OF-RENTAL™ System software license.  Customers electing to continue our software support service may call in at any time with questions or concept clarifications.

Training Location Options

At Our Offices

At least two days of training at our office are included when you purchase your initial POINT-OF-RENTAL™ Software base license.  One or more of your employees will come to our training facilities located near the Dallas - Fort Worth International (DFW) airport.  The dates of training must be mutually agreed upon at least two weeks prior to the start of your training.  We’ll configure POINT-OF-RENTAL™ software, with your database loaded into it, up on the big screen projector, cover all the bases and you return home ready to start using your system.

At Your Store

We will send at least one trainer to your store(s) for training and “cross-over” from your old system to POINT-OF-RENTAL™.  This method is optional and is available for an additional fee to cover our costs of having the trainer(s) in travel status.  Travel, hotel and rental car costs will be billed separately after the training has been completed.

Supplemental Training at the Annual ARA Show

Every year, our sales & technical staff hosts a User Meeting at The Rental Show (ARA).  This four to five hour meeting typically covers new features recently released and covers subjects such as POINT-OF-RENTAL™ database management and using historical data harvested by the system for trend analysis.  At the end of the presentations users can meet with our representatives on a one on one basis.  Click here to visit our training seminar page for the next ARA Show!
