Robin

Easy, Fast, Efficient

Pluspunten:

Robin is such an effective tool in our industry and seamlessly integrates our shared coworking space to ensure bookings are smooth, consistent, and accurate. There has never been any downsides to the software.

Minpunten:

I've experienced no notable functions or features of Robin that I dislike.

Best Scheduling Display Software there is

Opmerkingen: We just moved into new office and one of the main problems of our users is to find the new meeting rooms. With robin ipads next to each conference room, they'll find it easier. Also, the maps feature is helping them a lot - we have displays in the hallway that show them their way.

Pluspunten:

Robin has the general best look and feel of all the apps we tried. Zoom, Teem, everything felt just emotionless, but Robin is really fun to use. The folks there really put an emphasis on user experience. Our coworkers are happy to use it because it doesn't feel like another stupid corporate software. To optimize meeting room utilization, we enabled "abandoned meeting protection" - our users have to checkin, otherwise the room will be freed again. That's one of the best features in my opinion.

Minpunten:

We have dozens of ipads to roll out some days, also in different offices - I was a bit disappointed that I couldn't configure robin on multiple individual ipads using MDM - or perhaps I haven't understood how.

Eerder overwogen alternatieven: Teem

Redenen om voor Robin te kiezen: The software was being maintained by a trainee and eventuelly abandoned. Also feature-wise totally not on par with Robin.

Redenen om over te stappen op Robin: Robin provided the best user experience. It's fun to use, so our colleagues use it.

Satisfactory

Pluspunten:

I did not set the software up, I was only a use, but I believe it was easy to setup.

Minpunten:

I definitely did not feel like this software was user friendly for scheduling meetings. I had to contact support a lot and sometimes they were not helpful or one issue led to another.

Simple and clean but needs more intuitive interface

Opmerkingen: It does the job. But the fact meeting rooms need to be booked via another system suggests that there can be some improvements to be made. I would also like to be able to favourite my desk at the home screen and book it in a single step.

Pluspunten:

Simple and clean design - I can see right away which desks are available.

Minpunten:

It doesn't feel intuitive. It took me a while to find the 'book multiple days' option. And even that requires me to tap on every single day instead of selecting multiple days easily. We also don't use Robin to book meeting rooms because it's hard to see in a calendar view at what times exactly a room is available.

Robin Check-In and Kiosks

Opmerkingen: Of of the biggest problems we solved with Robin was data-driven decisions when expanding existing spaces or building new ones. We used the data gathered from Robin to make informed decisions on how many rooms and what size to build to better serve our employees.

Pluspunten:

In our organization, our primary use case for Robin was conference room check-in. The thing I like the most about this product is the way it updates. We don't have to manage that using our MDM software. The software automatically updates to the latest version when it launches.

Minpunten:

While our team uses the kiosk application I think the design can seem less polished than others. It is also not true to scale like other software on the market. I think this is a fairly new product for Robin and probably a lesser used product that other companies. It does work well and I've seen improvements in the latest iteration.
