Joan Desk Booking app will help you manage your desk schedule in the office. It’s extremely easy to use both for quick ad-hoc bookings and for planning your monthly schedule.
What is the Joan Desk Booking App?
The Joan Desk Booking app is a simple and easy-to-use app that allows you to book seats directly from your phone. In addition, we also provide a MyJoan dashboard that clearly shows who’s in the office each day and enables managers to book time slots for individual teams. Users can be assigned different permissions, based on their role. You can easily check it here.
Start using the app now!
You can now book your desk from your phone, which means that you have a designated space at the office where you can work. This also allows team members to alternate between working from home and the workplace in the simplest possible way.
The app is available in the app stores:
When you have the app downloaded, open it, and type in your email address. (please ensure that you have been added to the admin portal by your administrator)
After that, you will receive an activation code in your email inbox, please enter it into the app.
You have two options for booking a desk:
