The Equipment Dealer Software That Has It All
NextLink Essentials+ brings sales, service, rental, parts, inventory, accounting, customer management, and reporting into one fast web-based system built around how equipment businesses actually run. Track the work, connect every department, and stop relying on outside tools. Ask Skipper, the platform’s built-in AI assistant, when your team needs a fast answer instead of a search.

Open APIs
The Work, the Records, the Answers, All in One Place
Rental Management
Manage the rental side without extra tools, from availability and reservations to contracts and utilization.
Service & Work Orders
Keep service jobs moving from schedule to close, with technicians, labor, PM checklists, and warranty details all connected.
Parts & Inventory
Manage parts catalogs, inventory counts, reorder points, and purchasing without bouncing between shelves, spreadsheets, and vendor systems.
One System, With the Tools to Reach Every Corner of the Business
NextLink Essentials+ runs the core business, but plenty of work happens away from the desk. Techs need job details in the field. Customers want invoices and service requests without calling the office. Parts buyers expect to order online. eBS keeps those pieces tied back to the same system, so the business doesn’t splinter every time the work leaves the building.
Built Around Your People, Your Records, and Your Way of Working
No two equipment businesses run the day the exact same way. eBS helps shape the system around your records, workflows, team habits, reporting needs, and customer activity, so the software isn’t just installed. It’s put to work in the parts of the business where mistakes, delays, and bad handoffs tend to show up.
Sales & CRM
Track leads, quotes, customer activity, and commissions without sending the sales process into another system.
Logistics & Dispatch
Plan routes, assign drivers, schedule deliveries, and track movement using the same system running the rest of the day.
Invoicing & Accounting
Track invoices, payables, GL, and fixed assets from the same system running your sales, service, rental, and inventory.
Customer Portal
Give customers a cleaner way to book, review documents, check account details, and handle simple requests on their own.
Analytics & Insights
See sales, service, rental, inventory, accounting, and customer activity without pulling reports from five different places.
Skipper
Field, Shop, Office.
All in One System.
NextLink Essentials+ gives equipment businesses one place to track the work as it moves through the field, shop, counter, office, and back office. Rental, service, parts, sales, logistics, and accounting stay connected, so owners can see the business without chasing updates across departments. Built-in AI adds another layer throughout — helping teams draft communications, get quick answers through the built-in Skipper assistant, and stay ahead of inventory and reconciliation work — so the system doesn’t just connect the records, it helps put them to work.
The Equipment Changes.
The Work Still Has to Connect.
The equipment may change from one industry to the next, but the scramble is familiar: track the unit, find the part, update the customer, bill the job, close the loop. eBS keeps that work connected across the teams that touch it.
