# What are the top tools for managing hot desking and workspace reservations?

<p class="elv-tracking-normal elv-text-default elv-font-figtree elv-text-base elv-leading-base elv-font-normal" elv="true">Hi everyone! </p><p class="elv-tracking-normal elv-text-default elv-font-figtree elv-text-base elv-leading-base elv-font-normal" elv="true">I want to start a discussion focused on <a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/categories/desk-booking">desk booking tools</a> that teams are actually using and finding value in. While some tools are lean enterprise, several have features and integrations that make sense for smaller teams or fast-growing companies operating hybrid offices.</p><p class="elv-tracking-normal elv-text-default elv-font-figtree elv-text-base elv-leading-base elv-font-normal" elv="true">These are some of the options in G2’s Desk Booking category:</p><ul>
<li>
<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/zoom-workplace/reviews"><strong>Zoom Workplace</strong></a><strong>:</strong> Familiar collaboration suite with built-in Workspace Reservation. For teams standardizing on one stack, does the calendar-native booking and recurring reservations make rollouts smoother across locations? </li>
<li>
<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/officernd-workplace/reviews"><strong>OfficeRnD Workplace</strong></a><strong>:</strong> Strong policies, neighborhoods, and analytics for hot desking and hoteling. For multi-site setups, is the admin control and SSO/HRIS integration worth it compared with lighter tools? </li>
<li>
<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/skedda/reviews"><strong>Skedda</strong></a><strong>:</strong> Known for ease of use plus Microsoft 365/Google Workspace integrations. For lean IT teams, is Skedda’s simplicity enough to manage large floorplates with minimal overhead? </li>
</ul><p class="elv-tracking-normal elv-text-default elv-font-figtree elv-text-base elv-leading-base elv-font-normal" elv="true">If you’ve implemented any of these (or others) for hot desking and workspace reservations, I’d love to hear what worked well, what didn’t, and which features, like auto-release/no-show rules, team neighborhoods, or sensor/badge integrations, actually moved the needle.</p>

### Comment 1

A few users who switched to Archie mentioned pricing and UX as the main reasons. Per-user pricing or tiered/bundled plans can make it hard to scale, and while most hot desking tools offer customization, it’s sometimes so complex that you can’t set up or change settings without support. Aside from that, most platforms are solid on features and integrations. It’s mostly the pricing and ease of setup/use that make the biggest difference.

### Comment 2

&lt;p&gt;What moved the needle on adoption (SSO, mobile app, “who’s in” view, floor-plan UX)? And if you switched tools, what was the tipping point?&lt;/p&gt;
