In their own words
Seatsurfing
Seatsurfing helps organizations manage bookings for desks, rooms, parking lots and other shared spaces. Employees use a mobile-ready progressive web app to choose spaces from a floor plan or list. Administrators can upload floor plans, position spaces by drag and drop, set booking limits and review utilization statistics. Bookings can recur and sync one way to CalDAV calendars; the personal CalDAV integration does not support Google Calendar or Microsoft Exchange. Integrations with Microsoft Teams, Microsoft Exchange and Atlassian Confluence vary by plan or plugin. Authentication can use a password or an external OAuth2 identity provider, with MFA through TOTP or passkeys. A REST API checks roles and organization membership. The Free cloud plan supports up to 10 users, while free Self-Hosted supports unlimited users. Professional costs €0.90/user/mo; Enterprise pricing is available for 500 or more users. The product is intended for organizations providing free seats to employees, not commercial space rental.
