Over a decade ago, Top Car Rentals operated a national car rental fleet in. As competition intensified, the business strategy evolved toward modern, efficient digital solutions. We were engaged to translate their ideas into a robust digital platform.
After rigorous discovery and analysis, we concluded a specialized multi‑vendor platform was needed to aggregate nationwide car rental providers. We benchmarked local and international competitors and designed the platform end‑to‑end — from concept to technical and visual solution.
We built a system with three components:
The project spanned three years as the platform proved robust and fast, supporting business growth and ongoing feature iterations.
For topcarrentals.ro, two teams worked in parallel: a front‑end team (HTML, CSS, JavaScript) implementing a high‑quality design and SEO, and a backend/infrastructure team.
The backend team engineered the data model and core logic to support diverse searches (vehicle categories, cities, multiple vendors), and handled infrastructure and security.
Stack highlights: Java 11, Spring Boot, JPA, PostgreSQL, AWS RDS/EC2/Route53, React, Bootstrap, Nginx.
We first launched topcarrentals.ro in. Two years later the client expanded to Dubai, and we adapted the platform for toprentdubai.com (cars, yachts, apartments) with a refreshed design and new features.
With strong results and collaboration, the next project targets rentals of cars, jets, and planes on the French Riviera, slated for launch next year.
