You’ll find a brief overview of each system’s best use case, some notable features, and screenshots to give you a glimpse of how its interface looks.
Idylle
Eden’s mobile app and the floor plan map allow users to book desks directly.
As Eden’s HR and workplace experience software are modular, you can only pay for the products you need – making it a cost-effective option for businesses looking to maintain a flexible, hybrid workforce. A key feature of their system is the ability to book desks, schedule rooms, manage visitors, manage COVID-19 team safety, track deliveries, and submit internal tickets, which can be used for IT support, HR requests, and more.
By limiting which desks can be booked, system administrators can ensure social distancing between workers. Office neighborhoods are also available, allowing employees from the same department to book spots near each other for better collaboration. Using the system, operations teams can also track office space and desk usage metrics, which allows them to reduce wasted space and analyze their usage.
In Eden also has an embedded ticketing system, which can be used for any type of employee service request, including HR and People Operations requests, IT support, and facility needs. The module is designed to serve as a central hub for service requests and to provide analytics for employees to understand what kind of support they need.
It integrates with Google Calendar, Slack, Microsoft Teams, and many other access control and single sign-on applications such as Gusto, Hibob, and BambooHR.
There are various booking services available for Eden, each with its own pricing structure. Prices start at $2.25 USD/desk/month for their hot desk booking service. You can also add free room scheduling software for up to 10 rooms and free COVID-19 safety features for one location with up to 50 employees.
Finding a desk
A user can assign employees to permanent desks, allow guests to book desks when needed, and assign employees permanent desks.
The Deskfound space management software is based on Slack and geared towards hybrid workforces. Employees can use an easy-to-use, centralized platform or their existing Slack program to find suitable workspaces, view floor plans, and make desk reservations.
By using this cloud-based software, supervisors can assign desks strategically, evaluate seating arrangements, and manage available workspace for a designated period of time. Work desks can be managed across multiple locations, workspace status can be viewed, availability can be determined, and reservations can be made for dedicated and temporary desks. The integrated drag-and-drop user interface makes it simple to see desks by area, book seats and update reservations.
In A unified system allows users to track the location of each team, configure their access rights, set up contact tracing, and manage other critical tasks. Slack is not the only third-party application that can be seamlessly integrated with the platform. You can also integrate Google Maps seamlessly. Seating arrangements and locations can be viewed using QR codes on desk labels.
