# Who Do Office Managers at Midsize Firms Trust Most for Desk Booking Platforms?

The accountability piece described for deskbird is what stands out to me. Self-service booking tends to drift if people can reserve desks and not show up, so something that holds people to the desks they reserve keeps the system trustworthy for everyone else. Skedda replacing a harder-to-manage setup with centralized control across multiple offices feels like the admin-side version of the same idea.
