FAQ

Is Yarduno a fleet telematics platform?

No. Yarduno tracks rental orders, checkout, return, and billing records. It does not monitor engine hours or GPS location.

Can I track which customer currently has a rented unit?

Yes. Each checkout ticket ties the unit to the renter's account until it is returned and logged.

How does rental billing work?

Checkout and return timestamps attach to the customer's rate plan, so rental days become invoice-ready charges instead of a manual recalculation.

Does Yarduno replace equipment maintenance software?

No. Yarduno focuses on rental orders, tickets, and billing. Maintenance scheduling stays in a dedicated tool if you use one.
