20-Word Description
A tidy and useful ‘Web 2.0′ SaaS application designed to simplify the management of meeting rooms in the office environment. Niche and Nice!
CEO’s Pitch
Using our online meeting room manager, you can check the availability of any meeting room in your office and make a booking in real-time using a web browser. Organising meetings made easy.
Imagine the simplicity of using an online room scheduler to book a meeting room from your desk rather than having to locate a meeting room coordinator and have them check availability and reserve on your behalf. Typically the larger the organisation the more time can be taken up in the organising a room for a meeting. With bookmeetingrooom.com staff will be able to see with one quick glance which rooms are available from where ever you are. It’s a fantastic facility for anyone who schedules meetings and those who have to attend them.
Mashable’s Take
Fortunately, it’s been a few years since I worked in an office big enough that booking meeting rooms was required. But if I still did, a service like bookmeetingroom.com would make a lot of sense. It’s a web-based application for managing meeting
While booking meetings is a seemingly simple task, Bookmeetingroom.com takes just about everything into consideration, like allowing companies to maintain meeting rooms in multiple buildings across different time zones, with reports built in for administrators to see how their workspaces are being utilized. Like other software-as-a-service business models, pricing is based on the number of meeting rooms being maintained and the number of users accessing the system.
If an app for managing meeting space sounds like overkill, you’ve probably never worked in a company where booking meeting rooms becomes a political affair and you wind up huddled in a janitor’s closet. (or maybe I’ve just had some really bad jobs in the past …). The alternatives are typically either a system based on Outlook/Microsoft Exchange’s scheduling features, or just having a receptionist maintain a list of who has what rooms booked.
In any event, bookmeetingroom.com has found a nice niche with a nicely executed web-based product. It seems a bit like something 37Signals should’ve come up with.
