WorkInSync is a B2B SaaS platform trusted by hundreds of enterprises to streamline hybrid workplace management. It offers solutions like desk booking, scheduling, commute management, floor occupancy monitoring, and contactless access control to help businesses adapt to the post-pandemic work model.

The Problem

The COVID-19 pandemic shifted the workplace paradigm. Many companies adopted hybrid work models, requiring flexible scheduling, employee tracking, and health-compliant infrastructure. However, legacy systems lacked the flexibility to:

  • Plan employee presence and resource booking efficiently.

  • Track real-time occupancy and movement.

  • Manage employee queries and communication centrally.

WorkInSync needed a user-friendly, scalable solution to help companies adapt quickly and effectively.

The Goal

Design a seamless, intuitive user experience for multiple stakeholders—employees, team managers, HR, and admin—to manage hybrid workspaces effectively.
Ensure the platform supports:

  • Planning, booking, and scheduling.

  • Real-time tracking.

  • Communication and alerts.

  • Reporting and analytics.
