YArooms

Worth the cost.

Pros: Having all bookings in one place, very straightforward even for people that are not so tech-savvy.

Cons: We experienced a couple of issues over time but managed to solve them really quickly with the support for YArooms. Some of them were our mistakes, but they helped anyway.

Overall: At first we considered this an expensive product, but we now see how valuable it is and how much time we save! Very easy to use, user-friendly, gives us a lot of features to play around with depending on what we need!

Well build room booking system, great for the diversity of things we use it for - from booking our meeting rooms to using this for our events.

Cons: Was a bit difficult for our team to get used to it for our own office space, but that was more of an issue on our side. After using it easily and successfully in events it’s quite indispensable in office too.

Exactly what we need for our coworking space, meeting rooms, call booths!

Pros: We’ve used another booking system before, and I was okay with that. But YArooms really makes my job so much easier. Now I have more time to deal with other stuff. The great plus is that our community likes this change and their feedback is really valuable to us.

Cons: At first everybody was a bit bothered that we changed from one booking system to another and we were quite concerned.

I have to say I was a bit against paying for this. Managed to see how valuable it is after having less and less complains about double booking. And I am not referring only to rooms but also to other resources. It was easy to implement, easy to use, although we are all in tech so not sure how it would be for a non-tech person, looks very straightforward to us!

We would like some specific features and already passed them to the YArooms team but they haven’t been developed. They might be very specific for us, so it’s not really a con more of a thing we’d like.

Pros: I implemented it before started scaling so it was just really easy to use it as everybody had time to get used to it. At first it was a bit expensive, now we realize it was a great idea to use it early!

Cons: I think that I might not be the most technical person, even if I manage the office I have a background in a small company HR. I had a few questions and needed help in using YArooms and probably sent a few too many emails to their support team and it sometimes took a long time for feedback.

Overall: In the last year we scaled really quickly so a lot of changes happened. We were really comfortable with not having any system for managing our 2 meeting rooms but now moving to 5 meeting rooms, 5 interview rooms, and loads of other resources, YArooms really helped in the transition. It was recommended by a friend and I am really happy that I started using it right from the beginning.
