Desk booking software employees can use in two clicks
Orbit makes office desk booking simple for employees and controllable for workplace teams.
Employees can find and book the right desk across web, iOS and Android, using availability, accessibility, equipment, location, familiar neighbourhoods and nearby colleagues.
Workplace teams can apply role- and team-based rules, support delegated booking, and use sensor evidence to automate check-in, release unused desks and compare bookings with actual occupancy.
Desk booking capabilities
Book the right desk in two clicks
Search live availability by floor, neighbourhood, team area, equipment, accessibility and location. Favourite and recent desks make repeat booking faster across web, iOS and Android.
Keep teams together
Use familiar work areas, team neighbourhoods and nearby alternatives to help colleagues book where they can work together without repeated searching.
Control who can book what
Configure access and booking rules by building, floor, neighbourhood, team, business unit or resource. Employees, PAs, concierge, reception and workplace teams receive the permissions they need.
Automate check-in and release
Use occupancy evidence to support automatic check-in and release unused desks, then compare booking intention with actual use to understand no-shows, demand and team patterns.
From desk demand to everyday use
Desk bookings become useful workplace evidence. The hybrid workplace planning guide explains how attendance patterns, desk demand and person-to-desk ratios support better decisions.
From measurement to transformation
Observe, Tessellate and Orbit support each stage of the Measure, Model, Transform framework, from gathering workplace evidence to testing options and supporting change.
Measure
Gather the evidence needed to understand how the workplace performs.
Model
