Texada Software last week launched a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) subscription deployment option for its Systematic Rental Management system. With more than 25 years of experience helping rental and construction operations improve their asset management and customer facing operations, Texada has incorporated its feature-rich rental application into its new SaaS offering.

The Texada SRM SaaS subscription option allows organizations to benefit from the expertise of the Texada team without the need for additional internal resources. It includes all the infrastructure, software, hardware, and connectivity that a rental or construction operation requires to reap the benefits of the SRM system. The solution is delivered by Texada through a highly resilient, robust and secure hosting platform.

"We're pleased to be able to extend our deployment options for the SRM system as we know that it can sometimes be a difficult decision for an organization to commit to a full-scale on premise solution,” said Brian Spilak, Texada president. “The new SRM SaaS deployment helps reduce customer’s overall operational IT costs while offering superior scalability, security and business continuity assurance.”

Texada also announced that it successfully deployed its first customer within the SRM SaaS environment. Cooper Equipment Rentals, a leading independent construction equipment rental operation in Ontario, went live on the SRM SaaS application earlier this month.

“SaaS affords us all the benefits of the latest SRM software, without the hassle of owning, leasing, maintaining, upgrading, and backing up on our own servers,” said Doug Dougherty from Cooper. “SaaS allows us to focus on what we do best — providing equipment rental solutions to our customers — and leave IT systems management to the professionals.”

Serving the construction and industrial sector in the Greater Toronto Area since 1972, Cooper Equipment Rentals is a mid-sized independently owned rental service company. Cooper’s main focus is on providing compact equipment solutions to construction and industrial users working in an urban environment within the GTA. The client base includes private companies as well as large utility and institutional accounts.

Texada Software, based in Guelph, Ontario, Canada, is a provider of enterprise software solutions for equipment rental and mobile equipment.
