Archibus by Eptura vs. Archie vs. OfficeSpace Software

Archibus is well suited for organizations requiring heavy reporting functions, and that have complex processes for managing moves and space chargebacks. It is less well suited for organizations that require input from multiple users (such as doing an employee seating survey).

Archie is great if you need to manage your entire office eg: how your team reserves a desk, how they book meeting rooms and so on. They don't sell any hardware so you'll have to get your own tablets if you need those for meeting rooms. I would say the experience is even better when embedded into teams/outlook.

It is perfect for hybrid work. If there are no assigned desks, you can book a desk for however long you need to use it. It tells you which desks are occupied and by whom so you can know where to book a desk.

• The program is quite automatic, although it took me some time to adjust to the many processes that our organization has in place.

• I would like to see on-demand ticketing designed for a multi party hand off system that ties to a standardized process flow.
• I would like an improved interface on mobile generally but especially for move manager and request manger.

Because they deliver way more than we expected

User perspective it is simple through a web portal that shows all spaces and buildings. But as an administrator it was quite a bit of work to set up. And by extension updating is also a lot of work

I give Archie a 10, since I really love using it. It does exactly what it promises with no hiccups. It's a well-designed product, created with a user in mind. It's also well integrated into other products, like Slack and Google Calendar. Aside from some minor improvements, it's a great solution.

Useability is right up there, some of the graphics seem a little outdated and could be updated, but navigating the maps and models is easy and you get a really clear view of the different buildings and levels within those buildings. Overall, as a user this a great tool!

Support is happy to help at any time. If there are bulk tasks, they are more than willing to do them for you. The staff is super-friendly, and they like to check with you occasionally to let you know about feature updates. I have never hesitated to contact them with any of my needs and questions.

It helps with Visitors management and Meeting Room Management of our Organization

Archibus compares well with other IWMS software when it comes to integrating with BIM models and reporting capabilities. I selected Archibus as it has all the tools and processes needed to manage space and moves, with the intention to expand to other modules like Lease Administration and Asset Management. The constant upgrades to Archibus also helps to keep the software up-to-date with other third party products such as Revit.

The price is better, and the web interface is easier to navigate

I felt OfficeSpace met the needs of our company. Other competitors had features that our company would not use so why pay more for something you are not going to use? I truly like the idea of being in the cloud. Bugs are fixed quickly and it is very easy to get on line with support to review a problem to quickly learn a new feature.
