deskbird

“Wir haben nach bestimmten Kriterien ausgewählt: die intuitive Bedienung, Benutzerfreundlichkeit, das einheitliche Layout von Web- und Mobile-Anwendungen, vor allem auch die Microsoft-Integration, der Datenschutz und der Support. [...] In diesen Punkten hat uns deskbird überzeugt.”

“Unsere Herausforderung war, dass uns eine Übersicht fehlte über die Auslastung unserer Schreibtischkapazitäten. Und zugleich hatten wir erste Teams, die mehr Mitarbeitende als Schreibtische, aber kein Planungstool zur Verfügung hatten, um sich zu organisieren. Und dann wurden Excel-Listen benutzt oder mündliche Absprachen.”

“deskbird schafft Planbarkeit, Orientierung und Transparenz und macht die Veränderung für Mitarbeitende greifbar und steuerbar. So wurde der Wandel nicht als Verlust erlebt, sondern als modernere, flexiblere und vor allem gestaltbare Form der Zusammenarbeit.”

“What having the data has changed for us is the ability to evaluate site utilization based on occupancy data, and to make it easier for employees to find a workspace with the exact equipment they need.”

“The feedback we get from colleagues is positive. The mobile app and the Teams integration make it easy to plan the week and book a desk.”

“Was sich für uns durch die Daten geändert hat, ist die Möglichkeit, die Auslastung der Standorte anhand der Belegungsdaten zu bewerten und es den Mitarbeitenden zu erleichtern, einen Arbeitsplatz mit genau der Ausstattung zu finden, die sie benötigen.”

“Das Feedback, das wir von den Kollegen bekommen, ist positiv. Die mobile App und die Teams-Integration machen es einfach, die Woche zu planen und einen Arbeitsplatz zu reservieren.”

“Our successful transition with deskbird demonstrates that with the right tools, departments and institutes within universities can adapt to new working environments, paving the way for more efficient and effective use of their spaces and fostering a more connected and engaged workforce.”

“We were worried that our team cohesion might suffer due to the change, resulting in increased remote work, but thankfully, these concerns proved unfounded. In fact, deskbird has strengthened our team bonds more than anticipated and has been a great help, especially for administrative personnel.”

“Companies very often face the problem — as we do at other locations too — of not knowing how workstations are actually being used. That's how you end up with those 'desk wastelands.' To counter that, you can use deskbird to get real occupancy data and use it to set desk-sharing ratios or plan renovations accordingly.”

“Since we introduced deskbird, we've definitely noticed here in Wittmund that the way people spend time together and collaborate has changed — for the better. People communicate much more, they know when others are in, and sometimes come into the branch more often just to work there.”

“I'm usually based at our Remels branch, so it was really convenient today to simply book a spot here at the Wittmund branch.”

“For us, it's important that an application is simple. People often underestimate how administration works, but in the end it has to be intuitive and easy — both on the admin side and in day-to-day use for the employee. And deskbird convinced us on both points.”

“What I like about deskbird is how simple and how fast it is to use. We have great people supporting us, and that is really excellent. As an administrator, I know I can reach deskbird quickly, and there is always someone there to answer my questions.”

“We have had genuinely tangible results on getting colleagues back on site, so attendance has grown. And we have had very positive feedback on being able to see in real time who is going to be there.”

“It means you can relax knowing you have booked your desk. When you make the trip in, you know you will have a desk and a seat.”

“In three clicks, you book your desk, really easily and really quickly. The floor plan is clear and effective, it maps who is in and where they are sitting. And if I want to sit next to someone, I can pick the desk next to them straight away. We even have people's photos.”

“I love this tool we put in place a few years ago, because before, we were using an Excel file for bookings. It was catastrophic.”

“There are no more discussions and through all the analyses, we’ve also realized that we actually have enough space. In fact, we could continue to grow, and desks would probably still not become scarce. But we were only able to make that statement after using deskbird to closely review desk occupancy and evaluate everything in detail.”

“Those who previously didn’t have their own desk now find it much easier to secure one. Desks are distributed more fairly. With deskbird, we know exactly who needs and uses how much space.”

“deskbird stands out above all for its very intuitive and easy-to-understand user interface. That makes it simple to use and manage. The support is a highlight for me — something I only truly realized after the implementation.”

“Wir waren auf der Suche nach einem einfachen, intuitiven Tool, das dennoch all unseren Anforderungen gerecht werden konnte. Vor allem, da das Projekt eine Umstrukturierung unseres Büro-Layouts beinhaltete, war es erstaunlich, wie flexibel deskbird auf unsere wechselnden Bedürfnisse reagierte. Mit deskbird haben wir eine Software gefunden, die eine großartige User Experience bietet und alle Funktionen hat, die wir uns gewünscht haben, insbesondere SSO und Zugriffsbeschränkungen, die für uns sehr wichtig waren!”

“We receive a lot of positive feedback from our colleagues. Many were really looking forward to deskbird, finally a tool to help them organize themselves in a hybrid setup. What people particularly emphasize is how simple it is to use. You hardly need any instructions; you can just open the app and get started right away.”

“What I like about deskbird is how easy it is to use. At the end of the day, we're talking about a desk booking system, and that needs to be simple, it needs to be intuitive, and it is. I can plan my week in just a few seconds.”

“Unternehmen haben ganz oft das Problem, wie wir auch an anderen Standorten, dass man nicht weiß, wie die Arbeitsplätze genutzt werden. Dann entstehen eben diese Schreibtischwüsten. Und um dem entgegenzutreten, kann man deskbird nutzen, um tatsächliche Auslastungsdaten zu bekommen und diese dann zu nutzen, um Desk-Sharing-Quoten festzusetzen oder Umbauten entsprechend zu planen.”
