HQ Rental Software's Essentials plan starts at $129/mo — that's $1,548/year before setup fees. PCR Booking Pro is $1,490/year on annual — with no setup fees and more features built for your size operation.
HQ Rental Software targets mid-market fleets of 50+ cars. If you're running 1–50 cars independently, you're paying for features you don't need and missing the ones you do.
PCR Booking was built from the ground up for independent operators — simpler setup, lower cost, and tools like renter blacklists and automated dunning that HQ Rental doesn't offer.
Start free with up to 3 cars. No setup fees. No annual contracts. Upgrade only when you're ready.
