Dutch rental and trading software with modules
Rental webshop with one plan
SAM Rental (Drunen, member of Verhurend Nederland) is built for rental and trading companies that want their administration in one Dutch system: customers, articles, projects, stock, invoicing and credit notes, with modules for purchasing and hiring in, subscriptions, maintenance, transport, a warehouse app and accounting links such as Exact Online, Twinfield, SnelStart, e-Boekhouden and MoneyBird, plus Peppol e-invoicing. The webshop is one of those modules.
Be-Bookable is built around one job: let customers book and pay for rental products online, and give you a clear overview of the orders that come in. There is one plan with every feature, unlimited products, orders and team members, and no commission. Purchasing, maintenance and accounting links are not part of it, and we say so in the table below.
