Bookings

Conference room and workspace reservation system.

Overview

In Bookings, checking in to a reservation marks the room occupied for scheduling and, from the same record, updates a live occupant dashboard grouped by building, floor, and room. Facilities and security teams pull that dashboard up during an evacuation, filter to an affected building or floor, push a targeted alert to just those occupants, and export a roster for first responders.

Reservations cover any workplace resource — rooms, desks, parking, lockers, phone booths, AV gear, company vehicles, gym equipment — on one calendar that prevents double-bookings automatically. Confirmation and reminder emails attach a real calendar invite, not a plaintext link, so the meeting lands on the recipient's own calendar. The Ask AI agent can search, book, cancel, or reschedule a reservation from a chat message.

People book from wherever they already are. A tablet mounted outside a meeting room shows the day at a glance, takes a walk-up reservation, and shows a QR code that checks the holder in from their phone without signing in; a QR code posted at any space opens it on a signed-in phone to book it or check in; the mobile views cover booking, check-in, check-out, and cancellation on a small screen. Floor plans give each building and floor its map image, alongside the rooms listed on it. When a room is already taken, a waitlist tells the next person the moment the slot frees up and gives them a 15-minute head start to book it. Anything broken in the room — a dead projector, missing chairs, catering that never arrived — becomes a facilities work order tracked to completion against the reservation that raised it. Utilization, no-show, and post-booking rating reports show which spaces earn their floor area and which are standing empty.

See employees reserve rooms, desks, parking, lockers, and equipment from one real-time availability calendar, check in by QR code or kiosk, and admins track utilization and no-shows.

Employees search available rooms by capacity and amenities (projector, whiteboard, video) and book with a single click.
Hot desk reservations
Hybrid workers reserve a desk for the days they plan to be in office, guaranteeing a workspace on arrival and checking in by QR code.
Emergency mustering & roll-call
During an evacuation, facilities and safety teams see exactly who is checked into which rooms, filter by building or floor, and send targeted alerts to those occupants.
Space utilization reporting
Facilities managers review utilization, no-show rates, and space ratings to find underused rooms and reconfigure or shed real estate.
Meeting services
Requesters attach catering, AV setup, or cleaning to a booking; the request is routed to the facilities team and tracked to completion.

FAQ

Meeting rooms, hot desks, parking spots, lockers, phone booths, AV equipment, company vehicles, and gym equipment. Each resource carries a capacity, amenity/equipment tags, and building/floor/location details so people can filter to the right space.

Bookings is pay-as-you-go and available to every tenant with no license decision. You are billed for the bookable spaces you put under management, in packs that follow your count — the pack moves up as you add spaces and down on the 1st when you have fewer, and the price per space falls as packs grow. There is no per-user fee. Archived resources are free.

The system blocks double-bookings automatically. If a time slot is already taken the space shows as unavailable for that window, and the availability calendar and AI agent only offer free rooms.

Yes: a 30-day advance window, a maximum of 3 bookings per user per day, and an 8-hour maximum duration (12 hours for desks, parking spots and lockers) — admins adjust all three in Bookings settings. The 15-minute minimum is fixed.

Not yet. Each reservation is booked individually today; there is no repeat pattern for standing meetings or regular desks.

Not as a live, two-way sync — changes made in Google or Outlook do not reach Bookings. Every confirmation email carries a calendar invite (.ics) that puts the booking on the holder's Google, Outlook or iCal calendar; a reschedule re-sends the invite so the calendar updates, and a cancellation removes it. Bookings also appear on the OneMango Calendar.

Four ways: the Check In button in their confirmation email, or the QR code on the tablet mounted outside a meeting room — neither needs them to sign in — or the QR code posted at the space, which opens it on their signed-in phone, or the booking's own page. The email link and the tablet QR work from 15 minutes before the start to 30 minutes after; the posted QR and the booking page from 15 minutes before until the booking ends. No-show bookings can be auto-released back to the pool so the space is not held — never a room a Calendar meeting or an appointment holds.

Bookings reserves physical resources (rooms, desks, parking, equipment) and prevents conflicts on them. The Calendar app handles events and schedules; a Calendar meeting can hold a Bookings room for each of its dates, and that room is then changed or released from the meeting. Guest Pass manages external visitors, but it isn't connected to Bookings today — the two are separate apps.

Bookings doesn't have a visitor-invite flow today, and it does not create a Guest Pass on your behalf. Hosts who need front-desk access for an external guest register them separately in the Guest Pass app.
