Storable Unveils Innovative Reporting Tool for Storage Sector
Storable Introduces Business Intelligence for Self-Storage
Business Intelligence delivers answers in minutes—not hours—giving operators instant clarity into revenue, occupancy, and marketing performance.
Storable, the leader in integrated technology solutions for the self-storage industry, proudly announces the launch of its new Business Intelligence platform. This comprehensive analytics tool is designed to provide operators with immediate insights into crucial metrics such as revenue, occupancy rates, and marketing effectiveness. The platform leverages data from Storable Edge, ensuring that operators can access the information they need in real-time, thus making impactful decisions faster than ever before.
Addressing Challenges in the Self-Storage Market
The self-storage sector, valued at approximately $24 billion, faces significant challenges. Many operators find themselves trapped in inefficient practices, relying heavily on spreadsheets and outdated reporting methods that hinder their ability to respond to market dynamics effectively. The lack of access to thorough data analytics leaves these operators at a disadvantage compared to those who have the means to implement internal business intelligence solutions.
Chuck Gordon, CEO of Storable, commented, "We're addressing the most pressing issue within the self-storage industry. Business Intelligence allows operators to analyze their performance swiftly and accurately, providing a competitive advantage that can help them quickly adapt to changing market conditions. Now, operators can identify revenue declines and delinquent accounts sooner, optimize their marketing spend, and make informed decisions based on reliable data—all without the added cost of hiring analysts or creating their own reporting infrastructure."
Transforming Operations With Measurable Results
Storable's Business Intelligence platform offers storage operators the ability to achieve immediate, measurable results by:
- Competitive Edge: Quickly respond to shifts in the market.
- Time Efficiency: Reduce the time spent on manual reporting processes.
- Decision-Making Confidence: Base decisions on solid data without uncertainty.
- Growth Insights: Quickly uncover new revenue opportunities.
- Adaptability: Scale solutions to match your business size.
- Proactive Management: Identify revenue declines and delinquency issues before they escalate.
Features Tailored for Growth and Flexibility
The Business Intelligence platform integrates reporting directly within Edge, utilizing a tiered approach that adapts to the varying scale of different operators:
Management Reports (Included with Edge) offer 13 key reports pre-integrated into the Edge platform, providing essential insights to manage daily operations effectively.
Business Intelligence Essentials Pack is a customized data collection that enhances operational transparency, featuring two robust report categories:
Growth Reports
These reports analyze promotional strategies to identify which efforts attract tenants effectively. Operators can track:
- Move-ins linked to Promotions and Sources
- Revenue Generated Through Promotions
- Initial Revenue Trends from Promotions
- Average Length of Stay by Promotion
- And numerous other detailed marketing and sales reports.
Performance Reports
This set helps operators manage revenue, rates, and collections, allowing them to spot potential issues early. Key reports include:
- Monthly Revenue Trends
- Revenue by Categories
- Average Rent Rates per Square Foot
- Plus additional finance-focused reports.
Report Builder is an optional feature that provides teams with the ability to create tailored reports and dashboards according to their precise needs, facilitating in-depth data analysis without needing specialized analysts. Users can configure specific reports that capture critical data points and disseminate these insights throughout their organization.
Operators can acquire the Growth Reports and Performance Reports through the Essentials Pack, with the option to purchase the Report Builder separately for even greater flexibility.
Designed for All Stages of Business Growth
The Business Intelligence platform is tailored for operators, regardless of their business scale. From a single-site operator looking to maintain efficiency to larger, sophisticated multi-site portfolios requiring advanced analytics, the platform readily adjusts to offer the appropriate level of insight.
For smaller operators, it presents essential reporting tools that unlock decision-making capabilities previously reserved for larger players. For more developed operators, it delivers complex analytics and customizations necessary for staying competitive, without the complexities of managing a separate business intelligence system.
Gordon emphasized, "Operators consistently express their desire for a singular source of trusted information—something straightforward enough for daily use but powerful enough for comprehensive reporting to stakeholders. Business Intelligence achieves that goal by enabling them to demonstrate ROI, react swiftly to market fluctuations, and scale their operations without added layers of expenses or reliance on outside consultants."

The Business Intelligence platform is currently available for Edge customers, with plans for future accessibility for Sitelink users.
