"OnBoard Scout" Brings new Flexibility for Workers on the Go

19146441 "OnBoard Scout" Brings new Flexibility for Workers on the Go
You’re in a taxicab on your way from the airport to the office where you’ll be working today and tomorrow. Along the way it hits you: you forgot to reserve a workspace.

Up to now that might have caused some anxiety. Will the back of the janitor closet be the only spot available?

Never fear. Just use your handheld device to check the inventory and availability of workspaces at the office. OnBoard Scout, the latest innovation from AgilQuest, transforms web-enabled cellular phones like Blackberry®, iPhone™, and Treo® into powerful workplace tools that let users choose workspaces whenever and wherever they need to work.

OnBoard Scout presents users with a simple menu from which they can make or cancel a workplace reservation, or check-in or check-out of workspaces and conference rooms. It`s so simple to use that a person can choose a room with just one click. The process is easier than making a cellular telephone call.

OnBoard Scout expands the number of interfaces that make workplace management operations simple, ubiquitous, and transparent. They include –

  • OnBoard Navigator for people who administer the OnBoard application and/or manage multiple conference rooms or multiple shared workspaces in their organization.
  • OnBoard Mobile, a web-based tool that empowers remote workers to locate and reserve the resources they need (workspaces, conference rooms, etc) from their personal computer anywhere in the world.
  • OnBoard Kiosk which delivers OnBoard functionality to touch screen devices located at entry ways and other common areas.
  • OnBoard IPPI® (IP Phone Interface) which turns a Cisco IP telephone into a workplace management tool that shows room availability, allows interactive reservations and confirms workspace use.
