Benefits

Room and Desk Scheduling

Most scheduling applications focus only on room assignment. Robin is a cut above such tools as it allows you to manage both rooms and desks. Thus, you can manage your office in a single flexible interface and decrease costs. To avert confusion, the software integrates with popular calendars like Outlook and Google. This keeps all team members informed about workstation and meeting room assignments so they can work productively.

Real-time Analytics and Maps

Robin enables you to assist people to find their rooms and desks swiftly even as they change. This is facilitated by the solution’s real-time mapping function that shows changes in assignments and reservations. In addition, the application offers analytics on desks and rooms in real time. This helps you to comprehend people’s requirement for spaces so you can effectively plan office upgrades and assignments.

Room Display

Robin offers a room display application for iPads and TVs. The app permits you to broadcast assignments and availability for conference and meeting spaces to participants and other interested parties. As a result, your room manager will not have to deal with scheduling conflicts. If the room is not utilized for a scheduled meeting, Robin automatically removes the reservation and frees up the space for other users who may have immediate need and thus maximizes room use.
