The Appspace Outlook Add-In is finally here. It’s now easier than ever to connect Appspace to Outlook, giving your team a fully integrated experience in the workplace tool they already use daily for email and scheduling. 

This add-in allows you to manage all of your bookable resources in one place, including rooms, desks, shared spaces, parking lots, and more. It doesn’t matter if they’re from Office 365 or not – just mix and match and reserve anything without leaving Outlook.

Sometimes it makes sense to manage your rooms and desk in Office 365. But what about those resources that are managed somewhere else, or worse, aren’t bookable at all? Nobody wants to have to remember which app or software to use to reserve a space or piece of equipment. By adding all of your resources to Appspace and installing the Appspace for Outlook Add-In, you can browse maps, find rooms, filter for amenities, and reserve the right space for your next meeting, right from within Outlook.

Once installed, when you’re setting up a calendar event, simply click the Appspace Places button in the Outlook ribbon and you’ll see the full Appspace space reservation experience inside Outlook. From there, you can view floorplans, find neighborhoods and colleagues, filter by location and amenity, reserve, and add to your event.

Key features and benefits:

• Get the full Appspace reservation experience inside Microsoft Outlook
• Book resources that aren’t managed by Office 365
• Eliminate double booking, since you’ve got two-way syncing with Microsoft 365
• See interactive building maps and floorplans
• Find colleagues to foster collaboration
• Find the perfect space or resource with robust search filters
• Add conference information automatically for remote attendees

How it works:

• Your organization will establish an Appspace account and provision user accounts
• Appspace administrators will add locations and places in Appspace by connecting your organization’s Office 365 account, manually uploading, or creating directly in Appspace
• End users can then install the Appspace for Outlook Add-In 
• Click the Appspace Places button in the ribbon and make a reservation

The Appspace Add-In is available for both PC and Mac users. Our Microsoft Teams integration is up next, stay tuned for updates on the release, coming soon!
