DeskFlex vs Skedda

DeskFlex is a workplace management platform for hybrid offices, with desk reservations, meeting room booking, visitor workflows, and floor plans. Users can save favorite desks, create recurring bookings, invite coworkers, and add equipment when reserving a desk. Floor plans show layouts, nearby desks, available workspaces, and who is in the office. Check-ins can use QR codes, Wi-Fi, or geo-location, and unused reservations can be released automatically. The mobile experience supports reservations, check-in, coworker search, and booking notifications. Visitor features cover registration, approvals, office-access workflows, and activity tracking across locations. Microsoft 365 integration includes authentication, Outlook calendar synchronization, and Teams availability; Google Workspace sign-in and Okta SSO are also listed. Growth costs $50 a month billed annually for up to 25 spaces; Professional costs $75 a month billed annually for up to 50 spaces. Enterprise pricing is custom for 100 or more spaces. Pricing is based on managed workplace spaces, not employee count. DeskFlex has no free plan and offers a 30-day trial.
