MovoGo vs Current RMS
MovoGo and Current RMS both run the commercial side of an equipment hire business, but they fit different buyers. MovoGo leads on transparent pricing, cloud-native UX and a built-in marketplace; Current RMS is best for AV, event and production rental companies.

The rows that actually decide it
No telematics. For an AV fleet that's irrelevant; for plant it means machine hours and location live somewhere other than your rental system.
Recurring and cycle billing is partial. Event work is short and discrete, so that is proportionate for the audience Current RMS was built for — a plant hire billed monthly across a three-month site contract is precisely where it starts to show.
This row goes to Current RMS: a documented open API with webhooks, where MovoGo's is marked unproven. If you build integrations in-house, weight it accordingly.
Plant and tool hire are both partial rather than absent, and the distinction matters. Current RMS will happily manage a machine as an asset; what it doesn't carry is the operating practice around one — operated versus dry hire, delivery to site, examination clocks.
Scaffolding is a straight no on the matrix — Current RMS doesn't model component-level scaffold stock or returns. If you hire scaffold, this row alone decides the comparison.
How we rate Current RMS
Every rating on this page comes from a shared 46-point feature matrix we maintain across the equipment-rental category, built from each vendor's official documentation and public review platforms (G2, Capterra, Software Advice) and refreshed each quarter. Where a capability couldn't be verified from a public source we mark it unproven rather than assume it. MovoGo's own column is self-assessed and dated.

MovoGo marks in progress: quoting and the driver app are partial while those features roll out; telematics, open API and AI are marked “not documented” rather than claimed. Sources for Current RMS: https://www.current-rms.com/, https://www.capterra.com/p/142401/Current-RMS/.
Who each one is really for
Picture an events and AV rental company running Current RMS, and running it happily — until it starts hiring generators, lighting towers and welfare units to the same clients. Suddenly the plant side doesn't fit the model: no telematics, no thorough-examination clock, scaffolding out of scope entirely. That isn't a flaw in Current RMS. It's a product built for a different trade, doing its job. Firms that cross into construction hire come to us for the compliance dates and the delivery workflow. Firms that stay in AV should stay where they are.
An illustrative scenario, not a named customer — the situation is typical of Current RMSevaluations we’re asked about, but nothing above is a testimonial.
Why teams switch from Current RMS
The gaps buyers cite most — each drawn from the feature matrix, not marketing. If none of these bite for you, Current RMS may be the right call.
Event/AV-first, not plant/tool-hire native
Current RMS is AV/event-first. MovoGo is built for plant, tool and scaffolding hire — the compliance, transport and recharge workflows those trades actually run on.
No telematics
Where Current RMS is limited here, MovoGo's edge is a modern cloud platform with transparent pricing and a built-in marketplace — movoGo is built for plant/tool/scaffolding hire (Current is AV/events-first) and adds a demand marketplace + EU-native accounting.
No marketplace
Current RMS has no built-in demand network. MovoGo pairs the management software with an open partner marketplace, so idle fleet can earn from partner demand instead of sitting in the yard.
Where Current RMS is genuinely strong
- Modern cloud-native UI
- Strong for AV/events/production rental
- Open API + webhooks; compliance (PAT/LOLER)
When to stay on Current RMS: If your work is AV, events or production rental, Current RMS is the better-fitting product and we'll say so on a call — its crew, prep and sub-hire model is built for exactly that.
Best for: AV, event and production rental companies. If that’s you, Current RMS is a reasonable choice — this page is here to help you decide, not to pretend it has no strengths.
