Exciting New Features!
vs.
As you might have noticed, a lot is new at Rentini. If you haven’t seen it yet, we have a new logo (see above)! It’s not that we disliked the old one; it’s just that it didn’t work as a standard logo across the site. As we created new pages, the logo sometimes looked awkward and out of place, dragging down the overall beauty of the site. Plus, many of you commented that you thought it looked “cut-off” at the bottom, that it felt incomplete. We hope you like our new logo.
So what else is new? Lots! We also have a new map! If you were from “Paraguay,” to give one example, you would have been upset that the old map had your country appear as “Pennsylvania”. That was actually a joke, believe it or not. Given that our map–unique as it was–was a temporary solution, our programmers just couldn’t help but throw a few curve-balls in there for kicks. Now, we hope you enjoy our new–politically correct–map!
On to our really exciting features!

Whether we’re talking about your getaways or your property management duties, Rentini helps you get it on.
We could write ad nauseum about all the changes that go on at Rentini. Most of them you cannot see, or don’t notice, but exist nonetheless. For example, we’re enhancing our buttons, to allot enough space for text to fit inside the parameters of the button. This will allow us to translate the site into multiple languages and to prevent the words from overlapping. As we internationalize, this will become an essential piece of the puzzle.
