Parking spots, bike racks, lab equipment, pool lanes – the need for reservable spaces and resources at your campus or workplace goes beyond desk booking and meeting room reservations. EMS space and resource scheduling tools make it all possible.
EMS is packed with features that make booking personal spaces as easy as 1-2-3.
With EMS, people can use a variety of access points to claim resources or spaces, including mobile phones, tablets and digital signs. Check in at kiosks, book spaces in advance through online request forms, or use calendaring programs like Outlook to make reservations.
Remain in one interface to book a space and add it to your schedule. EMS integrates with calendar and communication tools including Microsoft Outlook, Zoom, Teams, Microsoft Exchange, Webex, Skype for Business and other favorite apps.
Discover where your favorite study spots or employee workspaces are located at your workplace or campus. Comprehensive, integrated data gives you key insights into important space usage analytics so you can determine how to offer the spaces and resources your people desire most.
Connect your people to all kinds of spaces and resources. Forget manually assigning lockers at the company gym or requiring campus visitors to drive aimlessly around searching for a parking space. With EMS, reserving space is a snap.
Enable self-service booking with the EMS mobile app, web tool and calendar integrations. People can easily book, update, modify and cancel reservations directly from their point of need, in one easy-to-use interface.
Your employees, students, visitors and other individuals expect flexible, activity-based workplaces and campuses. Help meet those expectations with EMS by making spaces and resources accessible on-demand.
