Resource Central is an advanced meeting room reservation system with which not only meeting rooms but also workplaces, catering and additional services can be reserved, fully integrated into Microsoft Outlook®. This software originated more than 20 years ago from the Danish Microsoft Gold partner Add-On Products to help businesses save time and resources by making it easy to book meeting rooms, desks, conference facilities, visitors and catering with just a few clicks and has since helped thousands of clients around the world (NATO, Allianz, UZ Leuven, Maersk, Nederlandse Vereniging van Banken, Gemeente Gouda, ...).
Main features
a) Simple Reservations:
Resource Central allows users to quickly and easily reserve meeting rooms, hot desks, parking and other facilities based on location, an interactive floor plan or by filtering by categories. This all happens within the familiar environment of Outlook®, which minimizes the learning curve.
b) Catering and Extra Services:
In addition to booking spaces, users can also arrange catering, visitors and other additional services via a custom order form. This ensures a seamless experience when organizing meetings and events. Each service provider (catering, reception, IT, ...) receives its own login and reports for an up-to-date overview of tasks.
c) Realtime Insights:
Resource Central provides detailed reporting and dashboards that help companies optimize the use of office space and meeting rooms. These insights are crucial for improving efficiency and reducing costs.
d) Mobile Access
Users can also book meeting rooms and workspaces via their mobile devices, providing flexibility for employees on the go.
e) Integration with Microsoft 365 / Office 365
The software works seamlessly with Microsoft 365, meaning businesses can benefit from an integrated solution for all their booking needs, whether in the customer's own data centers or as a SaaS solution.
f) Extensions
UZ Leuven is one of our customers who, in addition to using Resource Central, has also chosen to use the Add-On Meeting Room Booking Displays linked to Outlook to provide to any meeting room. These were created in the UZ Leuven house style. At the customer's request, a check-in must take place on the meeting room displays to confirm that the reservation is actually going ahead, otherwise the room will be automatically released in the Outlook calendar.
