Connect room booking with room displays

For buildings that use room display hardware, Locale can integrate with Joan to help keep room availability visible at the point of use.

Joan displays sit outside meeting rooms and show whether a room is available, who it is booked for and how long the booking lasts. This helps reduce confusion around occupied rooms, prevents awkward interruptions and gives occupiers clearer confidence that the room they have booked is ready to use.

Used alongside Locale, room display integration helps connect the digital booking journey with the physical space, so availability is clearer both in the app and outside the room.

A better booking experience for occupiers. Less overhead for your team.

Shared rooms work best when availability is clear, booking is straightforward and the admin behind the scenes is under control. Locale helps reduce friction on both sides. Occupiers get a clearer self-serve way to reserve rooms, while the team managing the building gets better oversight and a more consistent way to handle shared space booking.

For occupiers

  1. Self-serve room booking without back-and-forth
  2. Clearer availability before booking
  3. Reminders that help reduce missed sessions
  4. A more consistent experience across shared spaces

For building teams

  1. Less time spent managing booking requests manually
  2. Fewer clashes and scheduling conflicts
  3. Better visibility into room demand
  4. One system across multiple buildings or sites

  • See which rooms are most popular

How does room booking differ from Locale’s amenity booking system?

Locale’s room booking system is designed for meeting rooms and shared office-style spaces that need clear scheduling and clash prevention. The Locale amenity booking system is better suited to shared facilities such as gyms, lounges, terraces and other communal resident or occupier amenities. Both can sit within the same wider platform, but they serve different types of spaces and different operational needs.
