Resource management success stories

We can help you get more out of Exchange, Outlook & AD for booking and managing company resources.

Touch Screen Room & Desk Booking

Ensuring rooms and workspaces are fully utilised is a challenge for many organisations, especially for those downsizing offices or introducing flexible working initiatives such as hot-desking. If rooms are fully booked 'on the system' but empty on the day, precious resources are being wasted and staff frustration grows.


Essential offers a range of designer touch screens that integrate seamlessly with Microsoft Exchange calendar and Resource Central to give an at-a-glance view of room and resource availability and ensure that your resources are used to their maximum capacity.

Available as a 'view only' status screens outside individual rooms or fully interactive consoles for rooms and reception areas, we can deliver the best solution to meet your budget and procedural needs, as well as fit in with your office design and any installation restrictions.

Fully customisable displays show availability at-a-glance on floor-plans or from listings, and enable immediate or same-day bookings with optional security such as a PIN number or RFID security card.

Give staff at-a-glance visibility using colour coding, with any bookings instantly reflected in Outlook calendar, and vice versa.

You can also provide a check-in/check-out service to get a true picture of how resources are being used and report on 'no shows'.

Use touch screens in conjunction with Resource Central to get a complete, end-to-end solution for booking rooms and other resources such as AV and video conferencing equipment, catering, seating layouts, visitor passes and so on, in a way that leverages your investment and staff skills in working with Microsoft Exchange.

Top 5 things we think you'll like about this solution:

  1. Enables on-the-spot bookings of free hot desks, rooms etc
  2. Helps avoid the frustration of 'no-shows'
  3. Creates a professional image
  4. A range of hardware & fixing options to suit your budget
  5. Gives visibility of actual resource usage
