SiteLink Smart Management Software Is Key To Running An Unmanned Facility

With SiteLink, owners are able to rent more units through features like SiteLink's fully integrated API, INSOMNIAC kiosks, and SiteLink eSign™ while increasing profit potential and freeing up a great deal of the owner's time. Just like ATMs created a greater ease of banking for consumers, so too does the use of INSOMNIAC kiosks. With SiteLink eSign, customers can sign leases whenever they are able to. With this greater flexibility, not only are facility owners able to enjoy a more flexible schedule, they also are able to rent more units because of this greater customer convenience.

Using SiteLink's software integration, owners can:

• View and monitor their self-storage facility from a video feed from anywhere they have internet connectivity

• Send out payment notifications by email or through the convenience of text messaging
• Receive electronically signed leases from tenants
• Manage their business completely and securely from anywhere and at anytime they choose

SiteLink With OpenTech Alliance Technology Partnership Powers Kiosks

Think of it as kiosks on steroids. For over a decade, SiteLink has partnered with OpenTech Alliance. This technology partnership has created an easy integration between SiteLink software and OpenTech Alliance INSOMNIAC Kiosks. This integration, using SiteLink smart management software, allows renters to:

• Rent units
• Purchase renter's insurance
• Sign leases
• Receive their unit lock access codes

All these steps can be done from a kiosk at any time of the day. A call center directly linked to the kiosk by video provides assistance for a face to face, personal touch.
