Alamo.com is one of the bigger names in car rental services. However, at the end of the day their service just doesn t add up

Not our top choice
If you re looking to rent a car we recommend looking somewhere else other than Alamo.com.

The site is basically well designed but we felt it was a little too cluttered. We would have expected a cleaner interface in this travel guide.

How easy is it to navigate around the site? We tried and tested it out and graded. .

When we set out to rent a car from Alamo.com, the navigation wasn t too bad but it took some time for the pages to load and generally it just wasn t that speedy a process

They do offer some green services but not as many as some of the other big car rental brands.

Membership Packages Are there membership deals or packages for returning customers, users and what do they offer? .

When talking about car rental comparisons they re not the top brand that s enjoying flocks of returning customers. However, those who are looking for very few bells and whistles and a mediocre service will probably return.

Value for Money: 5/10

What do you get for your money? How competitive are the prices, what can you get for your money and are there bargains to be had by booking online? .

You can certainly find value here but we ve come across an unusual number of complaints when it comes to Alamo.com which makes us a bit skeptical. Our personal experience sure wasn t anything to write home about but all in all from our research we say shop elsewhere for better value when looking to rent a car.

Making a booking online How easy is it to make a booking online or to amend an existing booking. How flexible are the search options? .

You can reserve a rental car online, which is a perk. However, their system still seems to have some bugs and some people show up at the airport to find a missing reservation.

Planning services and inspiration Does the site offer more than just vehicle rental? Can I plan my trip, get ideas of where to head and view maps online? .

If you re looking to use Alamo.com to rent a car just be aware that the planning process might take longer than with other companies.
