Frequently Asked Questions
1. Why doesn’t Officely have an interactive floor map?
We intentionally decided against interactive maps to keep the desk booking process as simple and seamless as possible. Maps add unnecessary steps, making it harder for teams to adopt the software.
2. Wouldn’t an interactive map make desk booking easier?
Not necessarily. While maps seem helpful, they actually increase the number of clicks and make the booking process feel like a chore. A simpler, faster booking system ensures higher adoption and ease of use.
3. How does Officely make desk booking easier without maps?
Officely integrates directly with tools your team already uses, like Microsoft Teams and Slack. This way, employees can book desks with minimal effort—without having to open another app or navigate through complex maps.
4. How do employees know where they’re sitting without a map?
Instead of a visual map, Officely provides a clear and intuitive desk selection process. Employees can see which desks are available, reserve one easily, and know exactly where they’ll be sitting without unnecessary complexity.
5. Does skipping maps affect workplace collaboration?
Not at all. In fact, making desk booking faster and more accessible encourages more people to actually use the system, ensuring that teams can plan office days together and collaborate more effectively.
6. What if our office layout changes—how will employees find their desks?
Since Officely prioritizes simplicity, you can update desk availability and assignments without having to rework an entire interactive map. This keeps the system flexible and easy to manage.
7. Will Officely ever add an interactive map option?
For now, we’re committed to simplicity because it leads to better adoption and a smoother experience. However, we always welcome feedback and are open to exploring new ways to improve the user experience.
