Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about Toolero — from first login to advanced features

About the product

What is Toolero?

Toolero is a tool and equipment management system for businesses. It lets you track who has which tool, plan maintenance, and monitor equipment condition using QR codes.

Who is Toolero for?

Toolero is ideal for construction companies, manufacturing firms, and equipment rental businesses. It works anywhere you need to track who's using what equipment.

How do QR codes work?

Each tool gets a unique QR code that you can print and attach. By scanning the code with a phone, anyone can check the tool's status — who has it, since when, and when it's due back.

How do I get started with Toolero?

Create a free account, add your tools to the system, print QR code labels, and attach them to your equipment. The entire setup takes about 15 minutes.

What features does Toolero offer?

Toolero offers tool inventory with QR codes, a rental and reservation system, maintenance and service scheduling, rental agreement generation, location management, advanced analytics, and team roles and permissions.

Rentals & reservations

How does the rental system work?

The rental system lets you register equipment check-outs and returns with a single click. Each rental records who borrowed what, when, and for how long. You can set return deadlines and receive automatic notifications about overdue items.

Can I accept online reservations?

Yes! Toolero lets you manage equipment reservations. You can create reservations for clients and employees for specific dates, and the system automatically tracks availability and prevents conflicts.

What if a client doesn't return equipment on time?

The system automatically flags overdue rentals and sends notifications. You have full visibility into each client's delay history, helping you make informed decisions about future rentals.

Can I set hourly, daily, and monthly rates?

Yes, Toolero lets you define flexible rental rates — hourly, daily, weekly, and monthly, as well as a flat fee per rental. Rates are set individually for each tool.

How do I generate rental agreements?

Toolero automatically generates rental agreements in PDF format based on a template. The agreement includes client details, equipment list, terms, and rates. You can customize the template to fit your needs.

Pricing & payments

How much does Toolero cost?

Toolero offers three plans: Starter ($25/month for up to 50 tools), Business ($65/month for up to 150 tools), and Pro ($120/month for up to 500 tools). All plans include unlimited users.

Can I try it for free?

Yes! We offer a 14-day free trial with no credit card required. You can test all features and cancel anytime.

How does payment work?

After subscription activation, we issue a VAT invoice. Payment is made via bank transfer.

Can I cancel?

Yes, you can cancel Toolero at any time. Your data will remain accessible until the end of your paid period.

Can I change my plan mid-cycle?

Yes, you can change your plan at any time. When upgrading, we charge a prorated difference. When downgrading, the change takes effect from the next billing period.

Technical questions

Do I need special hardware?

No! All you need is a phone or tablet with a camera to scan QR codes. You can print the labels on a regular printer.

Does Toolero work offline?

Toolero requires an internet connection, but it works smoothly even on slow mobile connections. We plan to add offline mode in the future.

Does Toolero integrate with other systems?

Currently, we offer CSV data export (tools, rentals, services, employees, customers, reservations). We're working on integrations with external systems — contact us if you have specific needs.

Is there a mobile app?

Toolero works as a mobile-optimized web application. You can add it to your phone's home screen like a regular app.

Can I import data from a file?

Yes! Toolero supports importing tools from CSV files. Just prepare a file with tool names, categories, and locations — the system will show a preview before importing and automatically create entries in the database.

Security & GDPR

Is my data secure?

Yes. All connections to Toolero are encrypted (HTTPS) and passwords are secured with the Argon2 algorithm. Data is stored on servers in the EU and regularly backed up.

Who owns my data?

You own your data. You can export it at any time. We never sell or share customer data.

Who has access to my data?

Only people you grant permissions to in the system. You can create accounts for employees with different access levels (admin, manager, worker).

Is Toolero GDPR compliant?

Yes, Toolero is fully GDPR compliant. We store data on EU servers, provide the right to data deletion, export, and access. We sign data processing agreements upon request.

Account & team

How do I add employees to the system?

In the admin panel, go to the Team section and click Add Employee. Enter their email address — the employee will receive an invitation with an activation link. You can assign their role (Administrator, Manager, or Employee) right away.

What are the roles and permissions?

Toolero offers three roles: Administrator (full access), Manager (tool and rental management), and Employee (view and basic operations). Administrators can also configure fine-grained permissions for each role across individual system modules.

Can I manage multiple locations?

Yes! Toolero supports multiple locations within a single account. You can assign tools to specific warehouses or branches and filter views by location.

How do I recover my password?

On the login page, click 'Forgot password' and enter your email address. You'll receive a link to set a new password. The link is valid for one hour for security reasons.
