THE CHALLENGE
Economic development agencies serve two audiences at once: the employees who work in the building, and the business tenants who use the space to grow their footprint.
For this agency, supporting both groups meant running two separate platforms. OptiSign was used for digital signage, while Robin covered desk booking.
Both tools did what they were built to do. But two vendors, two contracts, and two systems created overhead that was a drain on the agency’s lean employee team. The experience on the ground – for both employees navigating desk availability and tenants utilizing the business space – didn’t meet the agency’s standard of quality.
Tool rationalization became the core of the initiative. The agency needed to find one platform that could replace both systems, while also driving down costs.
THE SOLUTION
The agency’s Director of IT encountered Appspace at a trade event. Appspace perfectly covered the agency’s needs: a single platform covering both digital signage and space management.
Better yet, Appspace integrates with Microsoft and Neat, two of the agency’s existing technology investments. This was a substantial differentiator, as building the required integrations would pile on the sort of complexity that the agency was seeking to reduce. Appspace’s pre-existing integrations meant that there wouldn’t be any new layers to manage.
THE RESULTS
With Appspace in place, the agency runs a single platform in place of two separate tools. Signage and desk booking now operate side-by-side, with less IT overhead.
Both employees and tenants enjoy a more consistent, integrated experience, whether they’re booking a meeting room or keeping informed via digital signage.
That high-quality experience helps to attract new tenants and business partners – a core part of the agency’s mission. The environment that Appspace helps create is part of what makes the agency’s space worth choosing.
The agency is so enthusiastic about Appspace that it’s grown its role from a customer to a partnership – namely, promoting Appspace’s platform to prospective tenants. What began as just a tool consolidation project has evolved into a richer, longer-lasting relationship.
