OfficeSpace Software vs. Skedda

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.

It is really well suited for managing either desks and meeting rooms, or resources. It was really important for us that equipment could be included as bookable items because we can then track who has them - where and when. The self-service nature of bookings allows everyone to manage their own time.

• Very easy to learn and use - was up and running after only 1 hour of training.
• Department can be color coded so it is easy to determine the correct utilization.
• Customer Service is outstanding - when you need it (which is rarely) you usually get a call or e-mail within 2 hours.
• They listen to you - they are always updating the software and value the feedback they get from their customers
• They use the cloud - updates are automatic

Incentivized

• the clear and accurate map of the space
• different filters (grid, day, map) for different users
• being able to build a questionnaire within the booking form
• giving people easy access to log-in
• the amount of control you can have over what your users see

• 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.

Incentivized

• Only one account can be setup as the overall owner of the system with control to adjust key settings. It would be good if more than one owner could be assigned to spread out the workload, without the need to for a shared account.

great system, flexible, fast and supportive

Useability is right up there, some of the graphics seem a little outdated and could be updated, but navigating the maps and models is easy and you get a really clear view of the different buildings and levels within those buildings.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

For a non-tech person, it isn't clear to me how to create and use tags. Some instruction/training would be useful.

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.

The response time is extremely quick and the video responses are great to refer back to.

For a non tech person more training on the in-depth functionality would be appreciated and useful.

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.

Skedda is much more comprehensive than these products and has infinitely more controls and options than Survey Monkey or Google Surveys. It would be difficult to implement either platform for the scale of reservations and scheduling we are currently using Skedda for and would make saving user information much more time-consuming for the staff of our organization.

Incentivized

• Improved our ability to work hybrid
• When our entire team needed to go in, it helped us be able to book desks near each other
• Gives a lot of flexibility. We can book a desk in any city in the world that is available.

Incentivized

• we have been able to increase the amount of people using the spaces - from 20 companies a week, to up to 30 because we gave people the power to book
• employees don't have to keep checking emails from people asking about availability - users can just see this for themselves so this saved us a lot of time and workload
