DESK BOOKING
SOFTWARE

AskCody is a meeting and resource management Platform integrated natively with Microsoft 365 and Outlook.

With AskCody you can book desks, workspaces, and meeting rooms efficiently from the familiar interface of Outlook. 

We created a user-friendly interface for employees to book desks, while also allowing administrators to manage desk availability, social distancing, cleaning schedules, and create utilization reports.

Should you choose to purchase AskCody then you can choose between two bundles. An essential and advanced package.

The essential package contains all the basic needs for handling meetings and desks including modern add-ins in Outlook, Exchange integration, Mobile app, secure SSO access, access to the AskCody admin center, and much more. 

The advanced package contains everything from the essential package while adding important upgrades to handle complex meeting scenarios. This includes service requests in Outlook, cost center management, customized reporting, API integrations, and access to the service portal connecting all your service providers.

The price of desks is based on your choice of solution.

AskCody does not support interactive floorplans. And there is a good reason why. 

While interactive floor maps allow employees to locate workspaces, meeting rooms, and other amenities with ease, leading to improved visibility and a better user experience. They also require a significant investment of time and resources to plan, gather accurate data, implement, create a user-friendly interface, update, and maintain.

From speaking with customers, we realized that the time and resources invested to create and maintain an interactive floorplan (especially in a time of uncertainty with people getting back to the office) did not justify the benefits of this solution. 

There are also a few issues companies face in terms of data privacy and security by implementing an interactive floorplan. You can read more about this in our blog: interactive floorplans for your workplace, dream or nightmare?

We take data protection and privacy seriously. This is why we get certified bi-yearly through the ISAE 3000 report in data protection to extend the regulations from GDPR. 

In terms of privacy, we are using the Microsoft environment as our backbone for all we do. This means that organizations can choose different privacy settings, if you for instance would want to anonymize workers. This is primarily used for meetings with external attendees. 

You don't need any special equipment to use AskCody's desk booking solution. You can manage all bookings using your email or through the AskCody mobile app, which allows you to book desks quickly.

However, we recommend that you label each workspace with a tag, such as "desk 1, 2, 3," etc. so that employees know which desk they should sit at. This will help to ensure that everyone can find and sit at the booked desk.
