Top 6 Reasons
that inspace is a better choice than FM Systems to manage your hybrid workplace
- 1Complete Focus on The Hybrid Workplace ExperienceUnlike FM Systems, inspace is wholly dedicated to enhancing workplace management and the employee experience. This singular focus helps to drive innovation and enables inspace to adapt quickly to new workplace trends and requirements, offering users an evolved and comprehensive solution.
- 2Integrated Mobile App without Extra Subscriptioninspace includes a mobile app as part of its platform package, providing users with a unified, mobile-first experience. On the other hand, FM Systems requires an additional subscription to access a separate software they acquired in 2019. This standalone software still operates under a distinct brand name, causing potential confusion and hindering a uniform user experience.
- 3User-Centric Help Resource Centerinspace emphasizes user support, offering a robust, user-centric help resource center. The aim is to facilitate a seamless user experience and minimize disruption in the workflow. This can make a substantial difference in everyday operations compared to FM Systems, where assistance may not be as intuitive or easily accessible.
- 4Intuitive Analytics DashboardThe inspace platform comes with an intuitive analytics dashboard that offers insights into workplace usage and productivity. It simplifies data analysis and presents actionable insights to improve your workplace strategy. FM Systems may not offer the same level of intuitive, user-friendly data analysis, thus potentially missing opportunities to optimize workplace efficiency.
- 5Modern, User-Friendly Designinspace prides itself on its modern, aesthetically pleasing app and web-based interface. This sleek design enhances the user experience and encourages user engagement. In contrast, FM Systems might not offer an interface that is as easy to use or visually appealing, which could affect user satisfaction and engagement.
- 6Fully Featured "Out of the Box"inspace offers a comprehensive, ready-to-use solution, fully-featured out of the box. Users can access all the tools and functionalities they need from day one without requiring additional modules or customizations. FM Systems may not provide such an extensive range of features immediately upon installation, necessitating further investment and time to achieve the desired functionality.
