Renttix is best for
You rent out equipment, plant, tools or event kit — whether you're a one-person outfit or a national fleet. Renttix is built for the whole hire lifecycle from day one, with an AI copilot working alongside you.
MRI Software is best for
MRI Software is a property-management platform — it runs leases, tenancies and the accounting around them, which is a different job from renting equipment out on hire.

Where Renttix offers more
- Run the whole hire in one place — quote, order, out on the van, off-hire and return. That day-to-day of renting kit is exactly what a property platform like MRI doesn't do.
- Start as a one-person shop and grow on the same system — add a second van, a second site, a bigger team, without ever switching tools.
- Track and service every asset in a workshop built for hire: scan it in and out, log parts and inspections, move it between locations as you expand.
- Let customers book and pay online through a branded store or a widget on your own site — nothing to bolt on later.
- Get deliveries to the door: plan routes and hand drivers an offline-first app for signatures, photos and payment on the spot.
- Take payment in almost any market, sync it straight to Xero, QuickBooks or Sage, and let an AI copilot handle the routine — all on a modern REST API.
MRI Software — core strengths
- Deep, mature property and real-estate accounting/financials — general ledger, accounts payable/receivable, CAM reconciliation, budgeting and forecasting built for complex multi-entity portfolios.
- Broad, end-to-end real-estate suite covering lease administration, property operations, facilities/CMMS maintenance, tenant/resident engagement (MRI Engage portals) and investment management.
- Very large, established global footprint (founded 1971; MRI cites 45,000+ clients across 170+ countries) with regional products and data-centre hosting.
- Recognised security and compliance posture — ISO 27001 certification and annual SOC 2 Type 1 and Type 2 audits on the SaaS infrastructure.
- Open integration ecosystem via MRI Information eXchange (MIX), with 1,000+ partner and custom APIs and a Partner Connect marketplace of complementary applications.
- Facilities/CMMS depth (NetFacilities, MRI Angus, MRI Planet) with work-order management, preventive maintenance, inspections, barcode scanning and offline-capable mobile apps.
Overview
Renttix and MRI Software do different jobs. MRI manages property — leases, tenancies, buildings and the accounting around them. Renttix manages hire — equipment, plant, tools and event kit that goes out the door and comes back. The question isn't how big you are; it's which of those two you do.
If you rent out equipment, Renttix is built for the work a property platform never was: hire orders, availability, off-hire, serialised asset tracking, workshop servicing and delivery — the whole lifecycle, on one system, with an AI copilot to take the routine off your plate.
And it fits whatever size you are. A sole trader with a handful of assets and a national fleet across several sites run the same hire lifecycle, online booking and asset tracking, growing into more of the platform on the same system as they scale. If you rent equipment out, choose the tool built for it — that's Renttix.

Frequently asked questions
Is Renttix only for large rental companies?
No. Renttix scales from a one-person business up. A sole trader with a handful of assets gets the same hire lifecycle, online booking and asset tracking as a national fleet — simple to start, with the depth there for when you grow. You stay on the same system the whole way, so there's nothing to rip out and replace later.
Why choose Renttix over MRI Software?
Because Renttix is built to rent equipment out, and MRI is built to manage property. If hire is your business — kit going out on the van, coming back, getting serviced and going out again — Renttix runs that end to end. And it grows with you from your first asset to a fleet across several sites, so you never have to switch tools as you scale.
Can I switch to Renttix from MRI Software?
Yes. We handle the move for you — a guided import of your customers, assets and history, with white-glove migration support so nothing gets lost and you're up and running without the manual re-keying.
Does MRI Software do equipment or tool rental?
It isn't built for it. MRI's tools track equipment inside buildings for maintenance, not kit going out on hire — there's no availability, off-hire, delivery or hire workshop. Renting equipment out is exactly what Renttix is built for, from a single asset up to a full fleet.
Is MRI Software a good alternative to Renttix?
Only if your business is property rather than equipment rental — the two do different jobs. For renting out equipment, plant or tools, MRI wasn't built to run a hire operation, so Renttix is the stronger call: it gives you the whole hire lifecycle from your first asset and grows with you, without switching tools the day you scale up.
