[Oacrao-l] Class/Room Scheduling Software

[David Fulmer]

Adam, we have been using EMS for a couple of years now for event planning.  We run a feed from Banner into EMS to then populate the classes and their location information.  It's been working fairly well for us.  If a department or club wants to schedule an event they go online and can see what's available and schedule it.  The system can be set for the time out required that your calendar/facility area wants to use for scheduling.

Good morning!

I'm pretty sure this has already been asked before, so I apologize for a possible repeated question.

Has your institution purchased software as a tool to help arrange/schedule classrooms and events?  UCO has put together a task force and considering many factors in terms of what we think is required and necessary to have it suit our needs.  We're still VERY early in our discussion phase (haven't even touched on the whole "who's going to authorize/monitor it" question!), but we've identified some possible vendors:

25Live
EMS Campus
Astra Schedule
360Workplace
FAMIS
AsureSpace

Do any of you use one of the vendors listed above (or even if it's not?)  Would you mind sharing your opinion of them, pros & cons, what you wish you knew then what you know now...that kind of thing?

Thanks, and happy Monday to all!
