Use Cases and Deployment Scope

OfficeSpace is used to organize the office. It is used for folks to know where their desk is, help them find other meetings, and, most importantly, locate conference rooms and be a guide for emergency situations to know where certain people should be. It is also very helpful for hotdesk booking when employees travel to different offices.

Pros

  • Ease of use.
  • Detail within the application.
  • Ability to request hot desking.

Cons

  • Lacks some higher-end features.
  • Does not remember the last location you looked at.
  • Does not have a request change feature by a user.

Likelihood to Recommend

I would recommend OfficeSpace; I think it gets the job done exactly how it needs to. They will continue to develop around certain areas that need improvement, but overall it is a great product. I think that it will ultimately come down to cost when purchasing this or an alternative.

OfficeSpace Software has you covered, but they don't have your stapler.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We are currently using OfficeSpace for desk assignments, hotel desking, and floor plans. IT is responsible for the management of the system, Workplace has the same power minus billing, and our EA team is responsible for scheduling desk moves. This helps everyone find where their desks are, allows people to book a temporary desk, and allows our new hire team to place IT equipment and swag at desks prior to new hires starting.

Pros

  • Desk moves -- When assigning a desk to a new user, or shuffling existing users around
  • Floor plans -- Easily find rooms, desks, and coworkers

Cons

  • Cannot update floor plans on your own. Need to send to account rep
  • Move managers definitely need to be trained on how to do things properly

Likelihood to Recommend

OfficeSpace Software is a system that crosses departments. It is especially helpful for workplace/facilities departments, as the available stats and feature sets are more suited towards their use. We also like that this system empowers the EA team in that they are the ones with the responsibility of placing hires at their desks.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

After reviewing many software products dealing with space management and finding they either were too intensive or too expensive or both, I found OfficeSpace. It had all the features I needed as well as a very comfortable price.

After 7 years, I am still very happy with the product and recommend it to anyone who asks.

Our whole organization uses OfficeSpace to find where people are seated, their phone number, or e-mail address. We have 7 offices worldwide and all have access to OfficeSpace. I use it to keep track of work orders, moves, and space utilization. OfficeSpace helps us determine department moves, occupancy ratios, and facility assets.

In an organization of 600+ employees, OfficeSpace has become a necessary part of our business, so glad we have it. By the way, their Customer Service is outstanding.


Pros

  • 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

Cons

  • The only thing I can think of is possibly a communication from the company on updates and possibly best practices

Likelihood to Recommend

OfficeSpace is an easy to use, easy to learn, very user friendly software. It is not a CAD type of software but a down to earth program that has all the tools most facility/property managers need to run efficient space management.
