"Before using Offstreet, our guests had to endure a cumbersome process of finding pay stations, waiting in line, and entering electronic codes to register their vehicles. Network outages often added to the frustration, leading to lost revenue and inconvenience for both our team and our guests. Offstreet completely transformed this experience by allowing guests to pre-register their vehicles online from the comfort of their homes. It’s a game-changer that has made our operations smoother and our guests much happier."

Challenges with the previous solution:

Inconvenient registration process
  • Guests were required to find and wait in line at pay stations to enter electronic codes, leading to delays and frustration

Network outages

  • Frequent network issues at pay stations prevented guests from registering their vehicles, causing operational disruptions

Revenue loss & guest inconvenience
  • To avoid mistakenly ticketing guests, the company had to either direct them to Parking Services for permits or issue “no cite” orders, leading to revenue loss and guest dissatisfaction

Offstreet's solution for SJSU Tower Foundation

A standing link where departments can select the date their guests are coming to campus

Seamless pre-registration
  • Offstreet enabled guests to pre-register their vehicles online, eliminating the need for on-site registration and reducing stress on the day of the event

Mobile accessibility
  • Guests could easily complete the registration process using their phones, which generally have more reliable internet connectivity

Integrated with LPR
  • Utilizing Offstreet's T2 Flex and Genetec integrations, SJSU's enforcement team is always equipped with accurate permit data, even for guests coming last minute

Outcomes

A solution that just worked...

  • Positive guest experience

    Guests appreciate the ability to easily claim their parking permit and get directions to the parking garage

  • Operational efficiencies
    Allowing departments to self-manage their guest parking, utilizing the API integration between Offstreet and LPR, and billing back for usage saves the parking team several hours each week

  • Stress-free parking team
    The streamlined process led to positive feedback from guests and staff, significantly reducing stress on the parking team

"The old process of using electronic codes at pay stations was not only difficult for our guests but also caused significant operational headaches. With Offstreet, our guests can now complete the registration process using their phones, which is so much easier and more reliable. The difference is night and day—Offstreet is simply a far superior solution."
