Industries and Use Cases

University Spaces Scheduling

In higher education, room and space scheduling software can be used to measure utilization, reduce double bookings and enforce social distancing guidelines in a variety of spaces, including collaborative huddle spaces, bookable conference rooms, mixed-use workspaces, event halls, rentable rooms, classrooms, study desks, meeting rooms and elective spaces.

Corporate Space Scheduling

In the corporate environment, you need to effectively manage spaces in a post-COVID-19 environment, which calls for increased safety measures, space utilization tracking, employee tools to facilitate social distancing and more. With EMS, you can develop a sustainable strategy that can provide the visibility, collaboration and control your team needs to thrive.

Co-Working Space Scheduling

The co-working office space is extremely popular, but difficult to manage and decidedly risky in a post-pandemic era. The right room scheduling software and space management tool will help monitor capacity, ensure social distancing, provide automations and more.

Meeting Room Booking System

Streamlined meeting room booking is essential to any organization working in-office or in a hybrid environment as many events – including presentations, evaluations, board meetings, department meetings and analytics meetings – require pre-booked meeting rooms. EMS meeting room manager software simplifies this process, avoiding conflict, double-booking, interruptions and scheduling difficulties. Ultimately, this can reduce friction and maximize the workflow process.

Conference Room Scheduling Software

EMS users can easily navigate bookings and availability in conference rooms, identifying free rooms, understanding the assets and tools available in those rooms and communicating with relevant team members about meeting times and updates.

Facility Scheduling

You can also use EMS to more broadly manage your facility spaces. Specifically, EMS administrators can easily track reservations and bookings, check room utilization and the duration of usage, monitor which team members are booking at a specific location and more.

Video Conferencing

Video conferencing has become an essential component of the modern workplace. EMS can integrate with all of your video conferencing tools, including Skype for Business, Polycom, Cisco TMS, Zoom and Microsoft Exchange.
