HireLogic vs inspHire: the modern alternative
inspHire is now part of Klipboard's OnRent range. This guide separates OnRent Go, OnRent Office — formerly inspHire Office — and OnRent One, then compares HireLogic on pricing, deployment, onboarding and everyday features.
In short
HireLogic is one cloud hire product for independent businesses, priced publicly from £99 a month with no long-term contract and live in under 48 hours. For a new small or medium buyer, OnRent Go is the closest current Klipboard comparison: its Core plan is £189 a month for 2 users on a 12-month minimum. For an existing inspHire Office user, the current product name is OnRent Office.
The purchasing table names the exact OnRent product in every row. The feature table focuses on OnRent Go and names Core or Premier only where Klipboard's pricing page makes the package explicit.

Klipboard OnRent products
OnRent Go is cloud-based, works on any connected device and requires no installation.

Klipboard also publishes a managed cloud-hosting route for existing inspHire systems.
Infrastructure and ongoing IT
HireLogic
A browser and an internet connection. The customer does not need to run an application server, buy a SQL Server licence, maintain Remote Desktop infrastructure or manage HireLogic database backups.
Klipboard OnRent products
OnRent Go publishes no customer-side server requirement. Customer-managed OnRent Office requires a Windows and SQL data server; its recommended application server has 16 GB RAM per 5–8 users. OnRent One recommends a 16 GB SQL server, an application server with 24 GB RAM per 10 users and a web server. A paid SQL Server licence may be needed in some circumstances. Customers must keep systems patched and transfer local backups off-site; web services can also require a static IP and firewall changes. Klipboard offers managed cloud hosting for a fixed monthly cost, but does not publish that price.
Onboarding and time to live
HireLogic
Guided setup, with a straightforward product list live in under 48 hours once the data is supplied. Training and support are included.

Moving your data
HireLogic
We provide a product import template, review the export before loading it and work with the format your current system supplies. Customer records can usually come through Xero or Sage, and you can parallel-run before cutover.
Klipboard OnRent products

Looking for an inspHire alternative? Start with the product you use now
HireLogic is equipment hire software for independent businesses that want one browser product, a published price list and a guided route away from their current system.
If you are replacing inspHire Office, the current Klipboard name to look for is OnRent Office. If you are buying for a small or medium hire business today, OnRent Go is the closer comparison with HireLogic. Keeping those products separate matters because their buying routes, deployment requirements and published prices differ.
HireLogic keeps that decision smaller: one browser-based product from £99 a month, no long-term contract and guided onboarding. Optional retail, workshop and e-commerce modules each have a published monthly price, so you can calculate the total before a demo.
OnRent Go is also cloud-based and aimed at small and medium businesses. Its Core price is public, but the Premier and Enterprise prices are not. Several capabilities on its product page are not assigned to a published package, so their price has to be established with Klipboard.
For OnRent Office, Klipboard publishes two deployment facts that need to be read together. Its current product page calls the platform cloud-based, while its current system-requirements page specifies a Windows installation, Microsoft SQL Server and a data server. Klipboard also offers to host and manage an existing inspHire environment in the cloud.
That infrastructure can change the total commitment substantially. A customer-managed OnRent Office or OnRent One setup can involve servers, Windows and SQL software, Remote Desktop or virtual-desktop infrastructure, backup handling and network changes, followed by patching and ongoing IT support. Klipboard-managed hosting moves much of that work into a monthly service, but the price is not public. HireLogic requires none of that customer-side application infrastructure.
- One HireLogic product running in the browser
- Published pricing from £99 a month including 2 users
- Monthly agreement with no long-term contract
- Optional modules priced publicly at £25 a month
- Guided setup, training and support included
- Live in under 48 hours for a straightforward product list

Which Klipboard OnRent product are you comparing?
Kerridge Commercial Systems now trades as Klipboard, and its hire software is marketed under the OnRent name. The current range includes OnRent Go, OnRent Office, OnRent One and OnRent Events.
OnRent Go is the small-to-medium cloud product and the only one in the range with a public entry price. OnRent Office is the current name for inspHire Office and is positioned for medium-to-large hire businesses. OnRent One targets complex enterprise and multi-depot operations.
This page compares HireLogic with OnRent Go where a current buyer can make a like-for-like feature and price comparison.

How we sourced this comparison
Last verified: 14 August 2026. Every objective competitor claim came from Klipboard's own OnRent Go, OnRent Office and OnRent One pages, OnRent Go's pricing, features and setup pages, the current system-requirements page or the cloud-hosting page. No review site or third-party comparison supplies a table cell.
OnRent Go, OnRent Office and OnRent One are kept separate throughout. When a product page publishes a capability but the pricing page does not assign it to a plan, the feature table says that its packaging or price is not published.
Klipboard calls OnRent Office cloud-based, while its system-requirements page specifies installed Windows and Microsoft SQL Server software. Both statements are included because they describe different parts of the available deployment route.
