EquipDash versus FareHarbor
Compare	EquipDash	FareHarbor
Verdict	Depends	Depends
Best for	Equipment rental shops (bike, boat, ski)	Tour and boat operators
Who it's not for	High-volume operators . the 1-2% per-booking fee compounds fast	Tiny operators . a 6% cut guts thin margins
Privacy	No known public vulnerabilities found in the sources reviewed.¹²	Core platform markets PCI-compliant payments and runs a public trust center; its WordPress plugin has two disclosed XSS CVEs.
Support quality	No public evidence found	G2: users consistently praise support
Public sentiment	Public feedback is thin: a single verified G2 reviewer praises overlap handling, and Reddit threads on boat rentals mention rental software options.^⁴	Reviews skew positive with praise for support and ease of use, offset by Reddit complaints about fees and lock-in.¹⁵
Biggest gotcha	Every booking carries a 1-2% fee even on the cheapest plan^²	Per-booking commission of ~6% (guides cite 6-8%) replaces a flat fee; costs scale with revenue.
