MDMS vs Texada Software — A Texada Alternative Built for Australian Dealers
Texada Software is an established equipment rental and dealer platform with active Australian and NZ customers. If you're evaluating Texada or looking for an Australian-first alternative, here's how the two platforms compare.
Australian-first by design
MDMS is built in Australia for Australian equipment dealers. GST is native, and finance integrates directly with Xero. Supplier and payroll payments export as ABA files for upload to your bank. Documents, tax and pricing follow Australian conventions, so the system fits local practice instead of asking your team to adapt around it.
One platform for the whole dealership
MDMS spans CRM, sales and CPQ quoting, serialised equipment inventory, build orders and commissioning, workshop service and work orders, parts and warehouse, rental contracts, and finance and invoicing. Running sales, service, parts and rental in a single cloud-native system keeps your unit, customer and stock data consistent end to end.
Rental plus the full lifecycle
Rental is part of a broader picture in MDMS. Alongside rental contracts you get build orders and commissioning — MDMS is the only equipment DMS in Australia with a dedicated build order module — plus warranty, parts and serialised unit tracking, so the same machine can move through sales, hire, service and resale without leaving the system.
Service that keeps working offline
The MDMS field-service progressive web app runs offline, so technicians on remote sites capture jobs, hours, parts and photos without signal and sync automatically once they reconnect. That keeps service records accurate even when the work happens well away from coverage.
A self-serve start
MDMS offers a self-serve free trial with no implementation fee, so you can evaluate the platform with your own data and workflows before deciding. That makes a hands-on comparison with Texada straightforward rather than dependent on a formal procurement cycle.
Planning a switch from Texada Software?
You don't have to move everything at once. Many dealers start with a single MDMS module running alongside their current system, then migrate the rest when the team is ready. Our import tools cover customers, parts, equipment, suppliers and open balances.
