Features of Approve HotSeating app

The Bi4 Approve HotSeating application will be appreciated by all companies that want to use their offices or entire buildings most effectively. However, it is a particularly interesting benefit for companies that already use Microsoft 365 software (formerly Office 365). In order for the application to work, access to the tenant is required, so that companies working with Microsoft 365 software can take full advantage of the functions of the system they are already working with.

When purchasing this application, the client will receive its source code. He therefore has complete access to it and in the future he can make subsequent adjustments and changes himself and further adapt the application to his needs.

Other features:

  • The application is very easy to use and contains well-arranged support.
  • Within the application, the user can book his seat within several floors, buildings and cities. It is therefore suitable for smaller companies as well as for larger companies that have offices in different cities.
  • Each user has an overview of already reserved seats, so they can easily see which days they have booked a place in the office.
  • Limits: the number of reservations (Sharepoint limit) is 30 million, you can use the application for up to 2,000 cities / buildings and you can prepare up to 2,000 zones / locations / open space.
  • The recommended maximum number of seats on one floor / office is 50, in the case of a larger number, the selection of a place from the plan is no longer very clear, especially on a mobile phone. If you have more places, you can solve the situation by dividing it into 2 zones (for example, west and east).
  • A Microsoft 365 Business Basic license is enough to run the application.
  • The application is available in Czech, English, German, French and Spanish.
