Why Southeast Asia is the next self storage frontier

Aric Austin (CEO of MyStorage) wrote a fascinating article for Inside Self-Storage on why Southeast Asia is the next big storage market:

Tiny Spaces, Big Demand: High-density apartment living in Ho Chi Minh City means space is tight, keeping facility occupancy at a massive 85%–90%.
E-Commerce Drivers: Small online sellers are skipping traditional warehouses and using storage units for micro-fulfilment.
Mobile-First Everything: Over 90% of customer inquiries happen online, so digital booking and smart access control are required from day one!

It's awesome to see how the technology and operating models perfected in mature markets across Australia and NZ are helping shape the future of storage in emerging markets across APAC.

Never let a power outage lock your tenants out

What happens to your front gate when the power goes out?

A sudden power outage can instantly knock your access control offline, leaving your tenants stuck outside, or worse, stuck inside! ‍️

That's why pairing your security gear with a dedicated UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) is an absolute game-changer. Keeping your equipment backed up means:

No stranded tenants during brief grid outages
Zero unexpected downtime for your CloudController
Fewer emergency service calls to get things back online

Don't wait for a blackout to find out! Does your facility have a reliable UPS in place? Let us know below!

Prevent Gate Lockouts and Minimise Calls with Automated Alerts

Less Time on the Phone, Happier Tenants!

There's nothing worse for a customer than driving to their unit, punching in their code, and getting stuck at the gate, which is then followed by an urgent call to your front desk.

With StorLogix Cloud automatic notifications, you can stop gate issues before they happen!

Automated SMS and email alerts keep your tenants in the loop automatically when:
An account goes on a temporary access hold
Gate hours change for holidays
Important account or access updates occur

The Result? Fewer panicked phone calls for your staff, and a smooth, hassle-free entry experience for your customers! Win-win.

Have you configured your auto-notifications yet?
