Are MaaS and Hardware as a Service (HaaS) Different?
So, what is the difference between MaaS and HaaS? MaaS focuses on mobility itself (having one central, often virtual, touchpoint for multiple transportation services), whereas HaaS focuses on the value and use of specific hardware (such as parking gates and ticketing systems) as a monthly service (instead of an upfront capital expenditure) to enhance your existing asset.
Utilizing HaaS, which comes packaged together with FlashOS, our cloud-based management system, asset owners and operators can fix, reset, adjust, and monitor hardware remotely. FlashOS is natively integrated into all of our HaaS offerings, which include parking kiosks in a variety of sizes, efficient gate technology, and optional cash machines.
FlashParking hardware, when combined with the benefits of our cloud-based revenue management system, allows for simple over-the-air updates and configurations as technology progresses. This groundbreaking duo seamlessly incorporates world-class business intelligence software with a lifetime equipment warranty, all for a low monthly payment.
The genius of the FlashParking ecosystem is the cloud-based marriage of MaaS and HaaS all on one platform. Together, they provide a holistic view and approach to maximizing every bit of potential income that your lot or garage has to offer. Your operations will not only become more efficient in the traditional parking configuration, but you will also be armed with new tools to expand growth-potential.
