A Leader in a first-time report

Why workplace experience matters

Work used to live in separate systems. One tool for desks, another for comms, and another for workflows. That doesn’t work anymore.

Today, organizations need one platform that brings it all together. That’s what this Magic Quadrant is about.

"We didn't wait for Gartner to define this category. We built it. I feel this recognition confirms what our customers have known for years — the old model doesn't work."

Pete Schmied, CEO, Appspace

What we believe sets Appspace apart

We bring together the core parts of the workplace in one platform so teams can replace scattered tools and missed messages with a workplace that stays connected:

  • Space — desks, rooms, and resources
  • Communication — intranet, messaging, and signage
  • Getting work done — workflows, automation, and next steps
  • AI — real-time insights that trigger action
  • Analytics — visibility into what’s happening and what matters
  • Visitors — check-in, registration, and guest management
  • Wayfinding — maps, directions, and navigating the workplace with ease

 

Built for enterprise scale, Appspace:

  • Works across locations, roles, and systems
  • Integrates with Microsoft Teams and Zoom
  • Uses AI to automate tasks and improve decisions

The result: a workplace that’s actively coordinated, not just managed.
