5…4…3…2…1… yes, it only takes 5 clicks to schedule your work week - the WHOLE week. With our new Week Planning feature, returning to the office is not only easy for you and your employees, it empowers teams to work together more effectively. With week planning, employees can organize their own week and schedule themselves day by day, according to their and the team's unique needs. They can even follow each other and directly see who is working on which days and times in the office, from home, or somewhere else, and coordinate themselves effortlessly. 

For employees

Today, hybrid work doesn't just mean working from home or remotely. It also involves aligning collaborations within and between teams, forming a hybrid team.

"The top reason for wanting time in the office was to learn and grow professionally, collaborate with colleagues, solve work-related issues and problems, and socialize"*.

This proves the key lies in the convergence of working from home and in the office.

Plan your work week easily

The role of the leader is to adopt and communicate clear policies around remote work. Also, working from home 2 or 3 days a week seems to be the winning formula. Using a team-based approach that has all team members performing the same schedule, alternating days in and out of the office with other teams, it's possible to build camaraderie and culture.

For admins

To have a successful hybrid workplace, you must manage the frequency of how and when employees are coming to the office. With our desk booking app, you can track, analyze, and manage your office usage better - which means more efficiently. You will get customizable reports for your offices for every location. So, you can manage office capacities, and as said before, this means increased efficiency.

Less is...more optimized workplace usage and reduced costs.
