StivaSoft has recently launched a new booking system focusing on a specific niche sector and online business. The system is positioned at the topmost of StivaSoft’s booking systems and impresses users and programmers with its simplicity, effectiveness and enticing price point for such a booking system. StivaSoft is a well positioned leader in the web application development market strongly focused on web development of web applications. StivaSoft already has an extensive and well known library of vertically oriented tools and software, not surprisingly therefore this is a system focused on a specific niche sector. Over the past years Stiva Soft has taken an individual business approach in creating only scalable, focused and to-the-point solutions in order to meet specific industry demands and help businesses gain a competitive advantage and maximize the software utility. The system is a powerful standalone script which provides an easy way to integrate a car hire booking system into a website and helps users and programmers in building websites for rent-a-car companies.
The script can be integrated into any web page and can be fully customised in order to blend into any web page layout. The system not only takes bookings online but also provides you full control over the reservation process and car availability. Our Car Rental script utilises PHP language and provides a high level of integration and compatibility with other software products and management systems. With an elegant and simple user interface, the car rental system provides functionality which engages site visitors, improves effectiveness and conversion rates. Along with a powerful car management module and reservation manager, the system can turn into the core of a rent-a-car website allowing programmers to build on the script and extend the functionality to a full management system.
As the system is offered with full PHP Source Code and a Developer Licence it is the perfect solution for web designers and it will help them save time and costs. StivaSoft provides users with a fully working demo of the script so anyone interested can take a look at both the front-end and back-end panels; here are some key points for a quick look:
