Tech In 2 - Ep 11 - Room Scheduling

Room scheduling goes well beyond the sleek touch panel that can be used to book the space or determine if a meeting room is in use. The touch panel is just the visible part of a much larger system organizations use to support meetings and collaboration. The foundation for meeting room scheduling starts at the platform level. Microsoft Teams, Zoom, Cisco and many other popular platforms help define a user experience and deliver reporting and analytics to keep rooms running smoothly. When the ecosystem is running on all cylinders, the information collected creates a data loop that connects people, technology and the spaces they use. As IT and facility departments align behind this room management strategy, organizations can identify patterns of room utilization and investments – making decisions about existing and future spaces much easier to make.
