Software & Hardware Integrations

Create a comprehensive solution

With EMS, you can integrate both hardware and software systems through our connectors, partner solutions and the EMS Platform Services API.

Software integrations

EMS offers the tools and integrations you need to ensure your people, rooms and data are always up to date and shared across your systems.

Microsoft Exchange / Outlook

Microsoft^® Exchange is a primary communications hub for large organizations. EMS works with Microsoft Exchange Web Services (EWS) to provide user email and calendar information in EMS, and to connect EMS meetings to Exchange resource mailboxes (Exchange Room Integration). EMS also offers the EMS for Microsoft Outlook add-in.

G Suite / Google Calendar Integration

Google Calendar Integration provides a direct connection with G Suite and your end users’ Google Calendars. EMS users can view attendee availability alongside space availability and add bookings directly to host and attendee Google Calendars. Google Calendar Integration is identical in function to our Exchange Integration described above.

Video conferencing systems

EMS eliminates the complexities of scheduling video conferencing (VC) through a variety of integrations such as Skype for Business, Polycom, Cisco TMS and Microsoft Exchange.

Skype for Business

For everyday users who want a simple and more direct link to popular video conferencing tools, EMS offers one-click reservations through integration with Skype for Business.

User account management systems

The EMS Platform syncs to your user account management or Human Resources Information Systems (HRIS) at your chosen frequency, keeping EMS up to date on user information and privileges without having to perform manual maintenance.

Student information systems integration

EMS pulls course data from popular Student Information Systems (SIS) in order to facilitate room scheduling for courses. This bi-directional integration allows rooms assigned in EMS to be written back to the SIS.

Facilities management systems

The EMS Platform synchronizes the space inventory between your facility management systems and EMS, ensuring data accuracy across all systems and eliminating duplicate information and planning mistakes.

Building automated control system / HVAC

Unused space often has continually running utilities, equating to a large, unnecessary expense. Integrating EMS helps automate heating and cooling based on room usage, reducing the costs from Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) systems.

EMS Partners

EMS can recommend trusted hardware and software vendors that meet our high quality and service standards.

Hardware Integrations

The EMS Platform integrates with popular digital hardware through our API, modules and toolkits. We do not require customers to use proprietary hardware, instead offering you the flexibility to select the equipment and signage of your choice. You may even be able to take advantage of your existing hardware.

Digital signage integration

Digital technologies help people work smarter, improve their workplace experience, and foster pride in being part of a 'cool' digital workplace or campus. Placed in lobbies or outside the entrance to rooms, digital signs linked to the EMS Platform allow users to view information, check-in to reservable spaces, or walk up and book an open space on-the-spot.

3rd-party digital signage

Sync meeting and event information from EMS to your digital display hardware. EMS integrates directly with popular room sign products, such as Creston Connected Scheduling Application and Steelcase RoomWizard. EMS can also share meeting and event data to other popular room signs, including Visix and Four Winds Interactive.

Tablets in enclosures

Deploy on-the-spot displays and enable room check-in with commercial tablets. The EMS Room Sign App displays real-time meeting information and at-a-glance room availability on wall-mounted Apple and Android tablets.

Video conferencing technology

EMS eliminates the complexities of scheduling self-service or managed video conferencing (VC) through automated features, one-click accessibility and integration tools for Cisco TMS, Polycom, Skype for Business and more.

Touchscreen Kiosks

Facilitate your employees’ and visitors’ ability to find information, locate spaces or people and book meetings with the EMS Kiosk App, a highly configurable, on-site EMS access point for large touchscreen displays.

Occupancy sensors

Organizations are adopting occupancy sensors to automate room reservations and track space use based on actual activity rather than pre-bookings. Organizations can enable this integration of beacons and sensors to EMS though our integration APIs.

Desk signs

Desk sign technology is growing in maturity and adoption within the digital workplace. EMS customers with hot desking and hoteling programs can integrate EMS with a variety of commercially available desk signs, indicators, and tablets.
