Software & hardware

Everything runs on GoBright.

We do not develop our own booking software. We introduce one that runs in many offices and configure it to suit your site. This is the scope of features the questionnaire checks against.

Via integration

Sign-in via Entra ID

Employees sign in with their Microsoft account. SCIM creates new colleagues automatically and removes leavers. No second user management.

Standard

Zone booking for teams

Group desks into zones by department. The team books its zone and sits together, even with desk sharing.

With hardware

Quick check-in via QR code

Sticker with NFC and QR code at the desk: hold your phone to it or scan the code, and you are checked in. No drilling, no device at the desk. If nobody checks in, the desk is released automatically, and the occupancy figures are accurate.
