Software
There are alot of software discussions on various platforms. But I am interested in hearing members from this community: if anyone has recently transferred to a different software, which one and what was your selection process. I find that most softwares have similar functionalities and it ultimately comes down to pricing and which functionalities you/the operator determine as "must have's" and as "good to have but can live without".

Thank you for sharing this info! I haven't heard of Hummingbird, and if others haven't it's such a plus to see these comments, especially if you are out there considering it. Of course, what works for some people, doesn't always work for others. But it's nice to see another option with opinions for the group to see. We do use Smart Storage and are happy with the results so far. Thank you for sharing with the group. 🙂
Podio CRM
Is anyone familiar with Podio (CRM) and can show me how to add and remove users? I'm hiring a VA and want to use my existing Podio CRM and have the ability to remove them, if necessary. I've researched on my own, but can't figure it out. Thanks!

@Wes Eaves thanks Wes!
Additional streams of income-
Congrats to @Mike Perkins and @Tammy Perkins for reaching out to tenants to see if they need more space and have rented additional units. When a tenant can’t keep up with rent, we offer a smaller unit- opening their bigger unit to be rented at the current street rates. We also charge for 24 hours access, additional fees for cutting locks, new locks, mandatory insurance, and we set up parking spaces with any extra space that we have. I would love to see what other owners/operators do for additional streams of income… look forward to the call noon! See you there! 🙂

@Keith Cantley is that with using a call center, or answering the phone yourself?

Gotcha! Thanks for the response.
Allowing non-tenants at your facility-
Just curious…on a previous post by Ying, she had mentioned allowing possible “future tenants” to view the unit before making a decision. We don’t typically allow anyone on the lot to “preview” the unit. I’d love to hear who in the group does this… reasons for why you do, or why you do not. Do many people ask for this? Look forward to hearing your answers

@Wes Eaves yes most definitely. But they would reach out regarding most things over and over again.
