Inventro vs InflatableOffice: 2026 Comparison
Looking for an InflatableOffice alternative? Monthly cost at 10 to 250 items, booking websites, delivery fees, payments and switching, compared.
If you run a bounce house or party rental business, InflatableOffice is probably the first software name you heard. It has been around for about 20 years and is built around inflatable companies. Inventro is newer and covers party, tent and event rentals as well as inflatables. If you're looking at it as an InflatableOffice alternative, this page covers what you'd gain, what you'd give up and what it costs.
Full disclosure: I'm the founder of Inventro, so I have a bias. I've kept this to things you can check on each product's own site, and I've listed where InflatableOffice does more than we do.
Quick comparison
InflatableOffice details are from their pricing page and features page on October 27, 2026. Prices for both are in USD and change, so check before you decide.
In Canada? Inventro's plan prices are in US dollars, but your quotes and invoices are in Canadian dollars, with HST, or GST and PST, set per category. You can record e-transfers and cash against a booking.
What it costs as your fleet grows
What this assumes:
- InflatableOffice's paid plans include the $39 Website & API module, since most inflatable companies want online booking.
- Inventro's booking page is on every plan, but card payments and contracts are only on Pro. Core and Pro are $24 and $49 a month billed annually.
- Items are counted each product's way. In Inventro, a castle that comes in two themes with different prices counts as two, so count your options as well as your units.
- Card processing fees are extra with both.

Where InflatableOffice does more
- Delivery fees worked out for you. Charges by distance band, zip code or a per-mile rate, from actual driving distance. In Inventro you add the delivery charge to the booking yourself.
- Payment at checkout. Customers pay online when they book, and you can pick from several processors. In Inventro you send a Stripe payment link from the booking (Pro), or record cash and e-transfers.
- Delivery days at scale. Assign deliveries to trucks, plan routes, and give crews a mobile app (Workers add-on). Inventro's delivery list and route link suit a few trucks, not a large crew.
- Pricing rules. Weekend prices, multi-day prices, prices by customer type, and automatic specials and surcharges.
- Accounting and support. QuickBooks Desktop and Online, and phone support on weekdays. Reviewers on Capterra (4.9 from 75 reviews) mention the support more than anything else.
If you need delivery fees at checkout or a crew app today, InflatableOffice is the better fit.
Where Inventro is cheaper or simpler
- Cost. At 35 items, Inventro is $29 or $59 a month against $163 for InflatableOffice with its website module. At 250 items it's $59 against $303.
- A booking page on every plan, including the free one, without a separate website module.
- No time limit on the free plan. InflatableOffice's free Starter runs for 3 years, then becomes $39 a month.
- Fewer settings to learn. Capterra reviewers of InflatableOffice mention a learning curve. Inventro has less to set up because it does less.
Switching from InflatableOffice
- Your items. Inventro imports items from an Excel template and can pull photos from links to your current website. If you can get your item list into a spreadsheet, you can paste it into the template.
- Bookings you already have. Inventro imports items, not bookings. Enter upcoming bookings by hand, or finish this season's events in InflatableOffice and start new ones in Inventro.
- Your website. Add a "Book now" link or button that goes to your Inventro booking page.
Which one fits you
Choose InflatableOffice if you want customers to pay a deposit and get a delivery fee calculated at checkout, you run several trucks with crews who need an app, or you need QuickBooks.
Choose Inventro if you want online booking, quotes and contracts without paying for modules, you price delivery yourself, and you'd rather spend $29 to $59 a month than $160 to $300.
You can start free with no time limit, or book a demo and bring your fleet list.
