Rentalux vs Viberent: Rental Management Comparison
Choose the rental management platform that delivers more value. Compare features, pricing, and capabilities side-by-side.
What is Rentalux?
Rental and asset management for Australian equipment hire, event hire, and tool hire businesses. Free forever option with paid tiers starting at AU$50/month. Part of the Hykmah operations ecosystem with 3 users included, multi-location stock control, online booking portal, and API access from Professional — all at published, transparent pricing.
The Multi-Product Advantage
Most rental platforms solve one problem. When your hire business also needs job management for field service and deliveries, inventory management for sell-through stock, or a B2B customer portal for trade accounts, you're shopping for another vendor — another monthly bill, another login, and manual work to keep everything in sync.
Viberent is a rental management product only. Job management, sell-through inventory, and B2B ordering all require separate vendors and separate subscriptions. Multi-user and multi-location pricing is also undisclosed — making total cost of ownership impossible to calculate without speaking to a sales team.
Hykmah is different:
When you subscribe to Rentalux, you can add Operon (job management), Stockwise (inventory), Orderlink (B2B ordering), or other products to the same subscription — no extra product fees, no new vendor, no re-entering data between systems.
