Hot Desk
Hot Desk helps hybrid office teams coordinate attendance and reserve workplace spaces through Slack. Teams can create named spaces with locations, then use Slack to book a preferred desk and see who is nearby. Users can also check meeting-room availability, equipment and capacity before booking. Administrators can limit a space to specified users, reserve numbered parking spots or set a car-park booking limit, and send weekly reminders to book. Google Calendar sync carries working locations and meeting-room bookings from Hot Desk to Google Calendar; the listed sync runs only in that direction. The service is web-based and offers a free Starter plan for up to five seats, with unlimited admins and no per-user charge. A 30-day trial is available. Pricing is based on bookable workplace capacity. Hot Desk is headquartered in Corby, England, UK.
