Short answer
RentSyst is priced well for a small fleet — €55 a month flat up to 15 vehicles, with unlimited branches and managers on every tier, and that seat allowance is genuinely better than ours.
People look elsewhere when they cannot tell from the tariff page which features sit on which tier, or when setup and gateway integration turn out to be paid extras. Renviq fits if you want the handover half of the day.

We sell rental software, so read this as you would any vendor's comparison. Every figure came off RentSyst's own tariff page on 4 October 2026, and the sources are linked at the foot of the page.
What RentSyst actually costs
The tariff page is a ladder keyed to fleet size, and the first rung is the one most small operators land on.
| Tier | Fleet | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Beginner | 0–15 vehicles | €55 a month, flat |
| Basic | 16–50 | €3 per vehicle |
| Standard | 51–100 | €2.70 per vehicle |
| Professional | 101–200 | €2.50 per vehicle |
| Expert | 201–400 | €2 per vehicle |
| Enterprise | 401+ | "Let's talk" |
Integrations add €2.50 a month on every tier. The page can be switched between euros and dollars, and between monthly and annual billing. Unlimited branches and unlimited managers are listed on every tier, including Beginner.
That seat allowance is better than ours and we are not going to pretend otherwise. Renviq's €49 Starter covers three users; RentSyst's €55 Beginner covers as many as you like. For a fifteen-car operation with five people at the counter, RentSyst is the cheaper of the two, and the second-cheapest answer in Renviq is €99.
So why do operators look for an alternative?
Two reasons, and neither is the headline price.
You cannot tell what you are buying per tier. The tariff page lists an impressive feature column — booking engine, digital agreement editor, digital signature, check-in and check-out, damage management, card authorization, e-invoicing, Peppol, dynamic pricing, loyalty programme — but reading down it we could not tell which of those are ticked on Beginner and which arrive further up the ladder. If you are choosing the €55 tier because it lists card authorization, confirm in writing that card authorization is on the €55 tier.
Setting it up is a paid extra. Training, onboarding, setup and the payment-gateway integration package are sold separately, and the integration package is offered to annual subscribers only. The €55 is the software, not the arrival.
A third, smaller one: the site describes a web application with a mobile version, not a native staff app published in the stores. On that point we are in the same position — Renviq has no native app either.
How do the two compare?
| Renviq | RentSyst |
|---|---|
| Every paid edition carries every feature; plans differ by vehicles and users | Feature coverage per tier is not legible from the tariff page |
| 3 users on €49, 10 on €99, 100 on €199 | Unlimited managers and branches on every tier |
| Pickup and drop-off photo inspections with damage marked on the vehicle | Damage management listed; photo handover not described |
| Deposit held on your own Stripe account, re-authorised every seven days, captured in part | Card authorization listed; tier coverage unclear |
| Veri*Factu, SES.HOSPEDAJES, Ca.R.G.O.S. and FatturaPA built from the booking | E-invoicing and Peppol listed |
| Permanent free plan; 14-day trial with no card | 14-day free version after registration |
| Cars, motorbikes, boats | Cars, boats and yachts, RVs, trucks, heavy machinery |
| No GPS or telematics | GPS dashboard and vehicle movement history |
| No OTA connections | Car brokers (OTA) and agent management |
When is RentSyst the better choice?
Four cases, and they are not edge cases.
- You have more staff than vehicles-per-euro. Unlimited seats at €55 beats three seats at €49 the moment you hire a fourth person.
- You need telematics. GPS dashboard and movement history are real features on their list and we have nothing equivalent.
- You rent trucks, RVs or machinery, not just cars, motorbikes and boats.
- You need Peppol or an OTA broker connection. Both are on their list and neither is on ours.
When is Renviq the better answer?
- You want the second half of the rental day. A branded online booking page, dual-signer rental agreements with a PDF audit trail, and pickup and drop-off photo inspections where the damage is marked on the vehicle and photographed — not a damage log typed in afterwards.
- You want to know what you are buying. Every paid edition carries every feature; what changes between €49, €99 and €199 is how many vehicles and users it holds. Free is an evaluation tier — it sends no email notifications and has a smaller document-scan quota.
- You rent in Spain or Italy. Veri*Factu records for the AEAT, the SES.HOSPEDAJES renter report, Ca.R.G.O.S. rental contracts and FatturaPA XML are built from the booking you already took, rather than retyped into a portal.
- You want the deposit on a card through your own Stripe account, with the hold renewed while the booking is open and only the documented part captured at return. It is your account and your payout, and we take no percentage of it.
- You want to try it with nobody selling to you. A permanent free plan, and a 14-day trial that does not ask for a card.
Our limits, so you meet them here: three users on the entry plan, no GPS or telematics, no OTA connections, no native mobile app, no Peppol, and no public reviews yet.
How do you move across?
- Export the fleet and the customer list as CSV. Vehicle records transfer cleanly; customer rows usually need the country column normalised.
- Rebuild the tariff by hand. Seasons, weekend rates and duration tiers are modelled differently in every system, and copying the numbers across without re-deriving them is how a pricing bug ships.
- Run both through one changeover. New bookings in Renviq; the ones already signed finish where they were signed.
- Keep the old account until the last agreement signed in it expires. Signed PDFs are evidence and they live where they were produced.
