Desk, room & parking booking
How this is scored
What can be booked and how easily: desks, meeting rooms, parking spaces and other resources (lockers, equipment, EV chargers), interactive floor plans per site and floor, desk attributes (monitor, standing desk, accessibility), neighbourhoods and zones, hot and assigned desks, recurring and multi-day bookings, booking for colleagues and guests, room booking synced both ways with Microsoft 365 or Google calendars, room displays, booking from the web, mobile apps, Outlook, Microsoft Teams and Slack, and several languages.
0 — Books nothing for an organisation's own staff; a customer appointment tool or a facility system without self-service booking.
3 — Desks can be booked from a list or a simple plan in a web app; rooms, parking, mobile apps and calendar integration are basic or not described.
5 — Desks, rooms and parking on interactive floor plans for several sites and floors, desk attributes and assigned desks, recurring bookings, booking on behalf of colleagues, mobile apps, room bookings synced with Microsoft 365 or Google calendars, and booking from Microsoft Teams or Slack.
8 — Neighbourhoods and zones per team, an Outlook add-in that books a room and a desk together, room displays with check-in, guest and visitor bookings linked to the host's desk, resources such as lockers and EV chargers, floor plans imported from CAD or drawn in an editor, accessibility of the apps stated, and the product in German and other languages.
10 — Booking that runs a multi-country estate: every resource type above on one plan, wayfinding to the booked desk, booking from every channel with parity documented, catering and equipment with the room, and the accessibility of web and apps documented to WCAG 2.1 AA.
The People Lead
Desks, meeting rooms and parking all sit on an interactive floor plan you build with drag and drop, with neighbourhoods for teams, assigned desks, custom resource types like lockers and company cars, check-in from room displays, and even catering or flipchart requests on a room booking. The gap for us: we found no public information on booking from Microsoft Teams or Slack, recurring bookings, desk attributes or guest bookings, and the captured pages describe two-way sync for personal calendars but a one-way send for meeting-room resource calendars. 1 2 3 11 16
