Features in depth

Every tool your hybrid office needs

DeskbookR isn't just a booking calendar — it's a complete workspace management platform. Here's everything that's included.

Open-plan office with hot desks and collaboration areas

Booking

Frictionless desk & parking booking

Book in under a minute

Employees go from "I need a desk" to "confirmed" in three taps — no admin intervention required.

Real-time availability

See which desks and parking spots are available for any date range, filtered by facility. No stale data, no conflicts.

Day-of and advance booking

Configure a same-day cutoff hour to manage walk-in vs. planned attendance. Employees can also book weeks ahead.

Personal calendar view

Every employee sees their own bookings, allocations, and sharings in a clean monthly calendar — at a glance.

Allocations

Permanent desk assignments with auto-booking

From flexible to fixed — and everything in between

DeskbookR handles every allocation model your organization uses.

Auto Booking ON — dedicated desks

Assign a specific desk to an employee for a date range. DeskbookR automatically creates daily bookings on their behalf — they always have their seat.

Auto Booking OFF — facility access

Grant a user access to any available desk within a facility without pre-reserving a specific unit. Ideal for flexible seating arrangements.

Bulk allocation management

Import allocations from CSV for entire departments. Export existing allocations for auditing or editing in a spreadsheet.

Desk sharing

Maximize space utilization with desk sharing

Turn remote days into reclaimed space

Every empty allocated desk is a wasted asset. DeskbookR turns remote days into shared opportunities.

Share when working remotely

Employees with a permanent allocation can share their desk when they won't be using it. This instantly makes the desk bookable by teammates.

Sharing linked to bookings

DeskbookR tracks which bookings were made against each sharing period. Admins see the full sharing history and who occupied which desk on any given day.

No over-booking, ever

Sharing and booking rules are enforced automatically. A desk can only be shared if an active allocation covers the period — no loopholes.

Admin tools

Everything an office manager needs

DeskbookR gives administrators granular control over every aspect of office space management.

Facility & unit management

Set up a full building hierarchy: Organization → Sites → Facilities → Units. Upload SVG or image floor plans for each facility.

User & role management

Create and manage user accounts. Assign User or Admin roles. Bulk-import from CSV. Set default facility and unit type per user.

Request processing

When no desks are available, users submit requests. Admins process them with FIFO (first come, first served) or Balanced (fair distribution) algorithms.

Organization-wide calendar

View all bookings, allocations, sharings, and requests across every facility in a filterable calendar. Identify utilization trends and gaps.

CSV import & export

Bulk-import users and allocations. Export any dataset for reporting, auditing, or editing in Excel. Validation prevents bad data from entering the system.

Organization settings

Configure booking policies, request algorithms, same-day cutoff hours, default unit types, and auto-registration email domains from a single settings page.

Enterprise-ready

Integrations & authentication

Microsoft Entra ID (Azure AD)

Enable single sign-on for your organization. Employees authenticate with their existing Microsoft credentials — no separate password to remember.

Email & password login

Built-in email/password authentication with secure JWT tokens. Full user account management for organizations without SSO.

Auto-registration by domain

Allow employees to self-register using their corporate email domain. New accounts are automatically associated with the correct organization.

REST API

A full-featured OpenAPI/Swagger REST API lets you integrate DeskbookR with your existing tools, HR systems, or custom workflows.

Azure Blob Storage

Floor-plan layout images are stored securely in Azure Blob Storage. Supported formats: PNG, JPG, JPEG, SVG, GIF.

Multi-tenant architecture

Every organization is a separate tenant. Data isolation is enforced at the database access layer — your data is never accessible by other customers.
