RW has allowed us to get rid of manual processes in regards to Wizard flowing into our accounting program, which is great. It does still seem to have quite a few glitches which are why I didn't give it 5 stars. The data often gets backlogged and when working in RW and I need to contact support regularly to fix issues. Working with Louise has been great, she is very helpful but when she is gone it can be difficult to find the right person.

So far working well. Support is the best. Always have room for improvement but overall I'm happy. Cannot comment the price because I never have chance to compare. But I don't need to compare anyway.
Pros
Help my business
Cons
Can do better on order procedure like AUTO SAVE after the typing instead of click save. Is time wasting when you forget to click save and customer waiting in front of you.

Rentworks review from the accounting department

I can't talk about the operations side. In accounting, we use RW for posting revenue, Fleet depreciation, additions, dispositions, accrual and revenue reports. We post depreciation in Rentworks. If you ever want to reverse the posted depreciation, there is no reversal of the posting.
Fleet depreciation has a handful of units that were sold many months/years ago and we have to manually remove them from the Excel download and Bluebird has not been able to clear those units for us.
Accrual report does not work and Bluebird has been working on it for many months but have not heard from them. If a unit has been rented out in the current month and closes on the following month, the report gives one day's less accrual. In our case, the gasoline revenue had overstated revenue, some of them were 200-300% overstated. The resolution is still pending. We have found a different way of doing the accrual which is time-consuming but, at least, the accrual amount is correct.
We use our own accounting software. The revenue is posted into the accounting software. The detailed daily business report does not tie to the summary daily business report in RW and RW wants us to find the reason. I told them that I don't know what the summary report is made of and it is for them to figure it out but have had no response since then.
There is no Revenue report to provide the actually posted revenue along with the taxes.
Each revenue report gives different results. This is the biggest drawback that we have found and it is very frustrating. I hope that Bluebird understands the importance of it. I always find a push back from them.

Overall Rentworks is a good product in terms of productivity and features. I would just like to suggest a couple of minor improvements:
1) Allow a larger window and/or full-screen display. Right now the window has a limited resolution that is not up to the standards of modern LCD monitors. You could fit a lot more information on one screen if it was larger.
2) Improve and streamline the installation process.
