Likelihood to Recommend
Robin is my benchmark for room displays. It effectively does what it is meant to do without additional fluff. The default theme is more than you'll ever really need, but customization is available. I just really wish there was a simpler way to remove check-in requirements for events. I would always recommend them first for most situations, but my company has a special use case that Robin, or any other competitors for that matter, have not been able to achieve yet.

It is really well suited for managing either desks and meeting rooms, or resources. It was really important for us that equipment could be included as bookable items because we can then track who has them - where and when. The self-service nature of bookings allows everyone to manage their own time.

Pros
  • The integration to GSuite calendars is fantastic. Very simple and straightforward.
  • The ability to customize the interface a very nice feature to have in Robin, as it offers you to allow the UI to reflect the vibe/brand of your company, and not force its own brand on you.

  • the clear and accurate map of the space
  • different filters (grid, day, map) for different users
  • being able to build a questionnaire within the booking form
  • giving people easy access to log-in
  • the amount of control you can have over what your users see

Cons
  • Cancelling out my reservation for the room if I miss the mark on check in.
  • Not sure if it's a bug, but sometimes I have to repeat my reservation if I don't get it confirmed or have a notification of confirmation the first time.

  • Only one account can be setup as the overall owner of the system with control to adjust key settings. It would be good if more than one owner could be assigned to spread out the workload, without the need to for a shared account.

Usability
Robin's UI is very well designed and modern which makes it a pleasure to use. Personally this a big factor for me enjoying a product and so I'm always happy to use Robin - moreover as a relatively new user the UI was quite quick to pick-up, whether that be using the online system or the Display app for rooms around the office.

For a non-tech person, it isn't clear to me how to create and use tags. Some instruction/training would be useful.

Support Rating
I have rarely had to contact customer support, but when I have, they have provided quick answers to solve the problem I was having. The software is pretty easy to use and not too buggy, so I really haven't had the occasion to contact them needing support. And no users have ever had issues.

The response time is extremely quick and the video responses are great to refer back to.

Alternatives Considered
N/A - Our parent company decided on implementing Robin above all other alternative applications, and I am personably unaware of any alternatives. And though there are some minor changes I may suggest, the integration and simplicity of Robin makes me wonder if there could be a better alternative, regardless.

Skedda is much more comprehensive than these products and has infinitely more controls and options than Survey Monkey or Google Surveys. It would be difficult to implement either platform for the scale of reservations and scheduling we are currently using Skedda for and would make saving user information much more time-consuming for the staff of our organization.

Return on Investment
  • No more meeting room conflicts, better office space management
  • Booking a room literally takes 2 clicks, very easy and quick - saves time for more important things
  • We bought a bunch of iPads to display meeting information on each room and we need to remember to charge them every night

  • we have been able to increase the amount of people using the spaces - from 20 companies a week, to up to 30 because we gave people the power to book
  • employees don't have to keep checking emails from people asking about availability - users can just see this for themselves so this saved us a lot of time and workload
