The options
What people compare Storman with
Storman does not publish its prices and quotes each facility privately. You may look for an alternative if the subscription tied to unit count and separate charges for payments, online move-ins, gate access or reporting do not suit your business.
Yours to own

How to choose a Storman alternative
- 1
What drives the bill
Ask what your quote includes and what sits outside it. Storman's subscription is tiered by unit count, while payments, online move-ins, gate access and reporting are separate pieces. Compare the full cost of the setup you use, not just the core subscription.
- 2
Who owns your records
Check where your records sit and what will be brought across from Storman. With an owned version, your records sit in a database you own. Confirm what the rent roll report includes and what needs separate attention, such as payment history and notices already sent.
- 3
Rules and fields that fit
List the fields and agreement rules your team relies on, then check whether a replacement can reflect them. Enterprise DNA builds each business its own version around how it runs, including checks against the periods in your storage agreement and settings for your state or New Zealand.

What switching involves
Storman exports reports, and the free version can import a rent roll after a test run. Payment history and notices already sent are not in that report. Plan how those records will be brought across, and test the rent roll before relying on the new system.
The option that fits
A version built around your business
Enterprise DNA builds your own version around how your facility runs, brings your Storman data across and runs it for you. Your records sit in a database you own, with your agreement periods and working rules reflected in the system. You pay one setup fee, then a monthly retainer, with no per-seat plans. If you prefer to run it yourself, there is also a free version.

Questions
Storman alternatives, answered
Why look beyond Storman if it already manages the facility? expand_more
If Storman does everything you need, you may not need to change. An owned version may suit you if you want your agreement rules reflected in the system, your records held in a database you own, or answers your manager can get without waiting for a report.
Can you keep online move-ins and card payments? expand_more
The free version is run by the manager and records payments rather than taking them. Enterprise DNA can build an online move-in page and connect card or direct debit collection in your custom version.
Will a replacement work with our gate access system? expand_more
The free version records overlocks and tells the manager which ones to put on or take off. Gate codes are still changed in your access system. Enterprise DNA can connect it in your custom version where your provider allows.
Can you bring your Storman history across? expand_more
Storman exports reports, and the free version can import a rent roll after a test run, including units, storers, rates, paid-to dates and balances. Payment history and notices already sent are not in that report, so Enterprise DNA brings those across as part of your switch.
