Finder is a space booking and wayfinding tool that helps employees easily connect with their workplace community. It combines an intuitive touch interface with a seamless at-a-glance view of the workplace, making it easy to book rooms and desks ad hoc, search for coworkers, and navigate via maps.
How Finder works
Finder works by configuring a view (map or list view) of a particular campus, building, or floor. For example, Finder can display the location and availability of meeting rooms on a particular floor.
