Hot desking without the morning scramble

With hybrid working, most offices no longer need a desk for every person. The hard part is making hot desking work day to day: people want to know there'll be a desk when they arrive, and ideally one near their team.

Dotdesk puts your floorplan online. Everyone can see which desks are free on any day, book one in a couple of clicks, and check who else is coming in before they travel.

Book by the day or by the hour
Repeat bookings for regular office days
Clashing bookings are blocked

FAQ

Desk booking questions

What is desk booking software?

Desk booking software lets employees reserve a desk before they come into the office. It's the tool most hybrid offices use to make hot desking work, and it gives managers data on how the office is used.

How many desks does a hybrid office need?

Most hybrid offices need fewer desks than people, but the right number depends on your busiest days. Dotdesk's occupancy reports show your peak days and most-used desks, so you can size the office on real data.

Can people book the same desk every week?

Yes. Repeat bookings let people hold the same desk on their regular office days, and they can still change or cancel a single day.

Can we stop one person booking several desks?

Yes. Each role has a limit on bookings per day, and clashing bookings are blocked, so desks are shared fairly.
