About Austria Campus
Austria Campus in Vienna is one of the most modern and sustainable real estate developments in the Austrian capital. It seamlessly blends business opportunities with quality of life. Comprising six buildings and approximately 315,000 square metres of gross floor space, the campus offers extensive office space alongside a range of facilities.
Challenge
Managing a complex parking system efficiently
The previous parking system at Austria Campus was outdated and inflexible. The only access control point was located at the main entrance of the car park. Other sections of the garage were accessed via induction loops, without any additional verification of access rights.
This meant that tenants and their employees could park in spaces they were not entitled to, and some tenants exploited the system by using a single access card to allow multiple vehicles entry.
Another major issue was the underutilisation of parking spaces. Many companies had leased parking spots that remained empty due to remote working or off-site activities.
“The structure of the car parks is highly complex. We have one central entrance that branches into four sub-garages, each owned by different parties. Without a professional, smart parking system, this led to numerous problems, particularly with multiple tenants and visitors using the space. Misuse and overcrowding were common because the old system lacked reliable access controls.”
– Jakob Scherzenlehner, Head of Real Estate Management, H2H
Solution
Smart Parking Management with Toogethr
In search of an intelligent parking management solution, the team at H2H Asset Management Partners discovered Toogethr. From the very first presentation of Toogethr’s Smart Parking software, it was clear that this was the perfect solution for Austria Campus: a flexible, modern system that was easy to implement and user-friendly.
By integrating QR code scanners, card readers, and cameras, the garage was divided into distinct zones, enabling precise access control.
“What convinced me immediately was the price-quality ratio. Toogethr provided a complete system that addressed all our challenges at a highly competitive price”, said Jakob Scherzenlehner.
Seamless Integration
A key advantage of Toogethr’s solution was its compatibility with Austria Campus’s existing access control systems. Special access cards could be easily integrated with Toogethr’s software and were fully compatible with its card readers. This meant that adapting the existing parking infrastructure was straightforward.
Beyond technical integration, Toogethr’s support was instrumental in ensuring success. “Within just a week, the system was fully operational. The team guided me through the entire implementation process and was always available to answer questions promptly.”
Results
Efficient Management and Satisfied Tenants
With the introduction of Toogethr’s Smart Parking software, Austria Campus significantly improved the utilisation of its parking spaces. The system enables tenants to manage their parking spots flexibly and adjust easily to changing needs.
By allowing temporarily unused parking spaces to be assigned to other employees or visitors, occupancy rates have been optimised. Previously, a designated parking space would often remain empty all day if the assigned employee was working remotely. Now, tenants can use their parking allocation more efficiently, leading to higher satisfaction.
Customisation
Another major benefit was the ability to tailor the system to individual tenants. Toogethr enabled each tenant to have their own parking reservation portal, even featuring their company logo. This level of customisation was a decisive factor for larger tenants, as it provided a bespoke solution.
Since the system was introduced, tenant feedback has been overwhelmingly positive. The real estate management team has not received a single complaint, and even initial sceptics have embraced the new system and use it actively.
Increased Tenant Satisfaction and Property Value
By implementing Toogethr Smart Parking, Austria Campus has not only elevated its parking management but also enhanced tenant satisfaction and increased the value of the property. “I’m absolutely delighted with the system and our collaboration. I can highly recommend Toogethr.”
