Excellent solution for self service storage

Reviewed on 23/01/2018

Easy of use, implementation, intuitive and well designed customer interface, and simple to manage.

Easy of use, implementation, intuitive and well designed customer interface, and simple to manage.

Pros

We operate a small, 138 unit, self storage facility and Easy Self Storage goes a long way in automating many of the process steps we require. If you have a question, you reach a someone who works for ESS (not a call center) who can answer that question quickly.

Cons

ESS provides a package of offerings to complement the self storage software solution, but feels like there are different mini-companies operating together. It would be good to have these rolled under one operating structure to provide consistency. They are all good, but 'feels' different if that makes sense...

Excellent, I had no issues with Easy Storage as a matter of fax I have referred over five other businesses to them.

Pros

This software is a true asset to my business, I wouldn't think of doing any other way. I like that you can get great customer service over the phone anytime you need it.

Cons

Nothing, everything seems to work as promised.

Experience based on about one and a half years with Easy Storage.

Reviewed on 06/06/2023

Pros

The ability to access the software from anywhere, including a smart phone. Plus the ability to mostly manage remotely (offsite).

Cons

Their fees and inaccuracies with credit card fees is probably my biggest irritant. The long wait times for customer service and the "company wide staff meetings" that completely shut down all customer service.

The price and simplicity for smaller properties is seriously #1! I took on the management of 2 separate self-storage businesses, only because of Easy Storage Solutions. The owners couldn't afford & didn't need the large & pricey systems out there for self-storage, and their only alternative was Quickbooks, which does not fit self-storage. They were frustrated, and I was able to step in and organize their properties easily and set up auto-billing & auto-pay on top of it, with simple flat-rate card fees. I am genuinely grateful for the Easy program.

Pros

The price. The simplicity. The easy flat-rate Card processing fees. The great website they set up for you. Great Tech Support.

Cons

Nothing, really. When I have suggestions I send them to Tech Support for the "Wish List" and they take them seriously.

Pros

The customer help is phenomenal! Every question I’ve ever had has been answered. They are patient and walk you through every step of the software. I only have 1 small facility and can’t wait to add east storage software to the next location.

Cons

They Monthly fee seems a bit high and cuts into the monthly profit on a small facility

Great and great customer service. We deal with other software products in the hardware industry, and this software is the most user friendly and customer service oriented of any I have worked with.

Pros

Accessibility at office or remotely, auto pay, professionalism and integrity in the product. It has literally reduced my workload by 80 %

Cons

Not having it sooner! Very satisfied. We had two other systems and this is light years ahead.

Love the software as it allows me to travel to Mesa AZ for 5 months in the winter and I can manage my facility from my lap top.

Pros

This is a complete package software and a website. The software once set up takes all the administrative labour away. Invoicing Automated, Payments Automated, Late notices Automated, Late Fees Automated, Gate Codes are Automated, Gate Access Automated. And all transitions are automatically sent to Quick Book. Easy to manage the complete facility from the DASHBOARD which shows Rentals, Occupancy, Awaiting Payment, and Tasks that need to be completed.

Cons

The software will NOT make my Golf Tee Time Dam

Love the capabilities of the program for our use.

Pros

How easy it is to input clients, track payments and balances, change settings in the software. It's so easy to navigate and train new employees how to use it. Adding new facilities and studios is fast and efficient. Anytime I have any questions or issues, customer service always resolves our issues.

Cons

Sometimes it's a little frustrating about the M-F hours but that's ok. Would love to be able to run revenue reports for all facilities.

We are a small storage unit facility, and could not afford to may much for a management tool. Easy Storage Solutions provides everything that we need to run our business, at a price that justifies it's purchase.

Pros

With Easy Storage Solutions, our business practically runs itself. After the initial set up, it takes me very little time to keep track of our customers, issue statements, and record payments.

Cons

I use Quick Books to manage the financial side of our business, and it would be really great if somehow it had the capabilities to do what Quick Books does all in one location (keep track of our business bills, and etc. for tax purposes).

Pros

The ease of use and finding customers in database

Cons

Editing new rentals, if I make a mistake I have to move customer out then start over with new rental. I should be able to move Prorating options when renting. We use the 3rd option and my part time help can't seem to remember to use third option on drop down. I wish I could move that option to top of drop down. Because of that it causes problems with prorating when I have to change due date to first of month.

Easy Storage Solutions takes the headache out of managing a storage unit facility. The software is easy to use and when needed, customer service is friendly and very responsive.

Cons

The only thing that I have discovered that I would like to use (and maybe it is available, i just haven't found it) is the ability to send a text message to all tenants.

Keeping track of customers that are late and automatically sending them email and text reminders is the best feature.

no real issues with the program. Set up was not complicated but it takes time to get all your customer entries in if migrating from another method. Mine was Excel spreadsheet.

Good company just needs a few updates in software

Reviewed on 04/01/2023

Pros

It is easy to use. Support is helpful when I call them if they are able to help

Cons

The main feature that I have called over and over again , their software does not have a auto fee that if customer uses credit/debit card that they are charged a fee automatically to cover our cost as a company. Our clients don't use their cards every month and with 500 clients it is extra work to go in monthly and change fees when a auto draft on software could help especially now with more fees being added from the company. You are making now .25 per transaction and I still have to do all the work . I have made request for the last year every time I have called and have not gotten any feedback from anyone. I know from talking to support they get these request daily.

ESS has made my customers happier with dealing online with us. It keeps my customers on my website and the customer support here at least listens and considers potential upgrades and helps work through any challenges in a friendly way.

Pros

ESS makes things so much easier for my customers. They love the ease of paying online and I like that they never leave my website to do it. I like the ability to send texts to my customers. The customer support team really works hard to help when there is a problem and they are usually very quick to respond!

Cons

The QuickBooks integration for desk top users doesn't work well for me. I'd prefer to be able to download iff. files that have been linked with my various QB accounts that will help me to track and categorize individually, security deposits paid, security deposit refunds, sales tax, retail sales, insurance, insurance fees rent, and fees. As it stands now I have to make monthly GL entries for each of these where I didn't need to with my prior software. I don't like the multiple payment buttons in the payment screen. They are confusing to me and my customers. When trying to pre pay a customer with multiple units and one check I have to enter the payment multiple times, this again make added work for me. Auto payment texts, I discovered the hard way, are not good as they come at crazy hours that woke up several of my customers (I wish I had known this before it happened). I'm in Texas and like to use the TSSA rental agreement, but it's so frustrating they should really let folks know the system does not work well with Blue Moon. If you decide to continue with TSSA contracts and Blue Moon you will be doubling your workload.
