I have been on 3 other systems in my 28+ years of Event Rental experience and ALERT is by far the easiest to use, most accurate and drilled in for this industry. The fact that users are the key to upgrades yearly speaks volumes\! No other company in the industry does that. > > **Cons**: Currently no having any issues with the software. > > Inventory is accurate and real time up to date. ----- ### "Bennett Equipment Loves Alert Easy Pro\!" — 5.0/5 > **Eddie** | *21 February 2017* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Integrates well with our accounting software and ease of use by operators is key. Alert management allows users to have input for upgrades. > > **Cons**: Had to think a while on this one, there is no "perfect" software for each individual user but Alert Easy Pro makes adapting their features to individual users a breeze. > > We have been utilizing Alert Easy Pro for ten years\!\! The software has paid for itself many times over. Ease of use and constant upgrades make it number one in our book\! Support is always there when it is needed, which is rare. ----- ### "Alert is easy" — 4.0/5 > **Rick** | *22 February 2017* | Entertainment | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: It's flexibility between serialized and bulk items. Everything is point and click. Many reports are already available in the knowledge base. > > **Cons**: Number of characters in each field. > > Alert EasyPro is an easy fit for our complicated rental management needs. Alert does a good job of blending functionality for the event rental user and general rental user. I find the staff always willing to consider the client needs and tries to find solutions to our day to day issues. We have used several POS systems and have never before experienced a software supplier that took client feedback so seriously. Alerts annual user conference is a testament to a commitment to their customers. ----- ### "Excellent Company" — 5.0/5 > **William** | *21 February 2017* | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Simplicity and ease of handling our inventory and customer database. > > **Cons**: We tested "Dispatch" portal that Alert offers and were not able to make it work for us. > > We have been using Alert Easy Pro for the past 8 years in Greensboro, NC. It works well for both our tool \& equipment division, as well as our event division. Whenever we have an issue, we have always experienced fast and effective support. Their annual conference in Colorado Springs not only offers great education on how to optimize usage of the software, but also on many other aspects of the rental business. Hundreds of rental operators from around the Uniited States and a few from other countries come each year. ----- ### "Many Years of User Experience" — 5.0/5 > **Ian** | *21 February 2017* | Events Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Ease of training new users. Dashboard features. > > **Cons**: Should think more for us\! > > In 2008 we had to make a decision between to software platforms, (acquisitions had different systems) and we reviewed, analyzed, discussed and chose Alert. Over the years many new features have been added that really work for us. The annual User Conference is pretty unique in many ways and has brought us in close contact with users around the country who we can call at pretty much any time with questions and queries. The staff at Alert strive to support their clients and have a treasure chest of knowledge and experience. Constantly evolving is necessary these days and this is what maintains the Alert reputation. ----- Page: 1 / 3\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/96080/alert-easypro?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/96080/alert-easypro) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | fr | | ----- ## Structured Data
