The room grid functionality allows users to view multiple meeting rooms with names, locations and availability status. Joan's team grid module enables supervisors to track team members’ activities and availability, reducing work interruptions. Administrators can configure the platform in multiple languages, set office timings and upload business logos. Additionally, managers and leaders can generate reports to gain insight into room utilization rates, track meeting patterns, identify popular rooms and monitor no-show meetings. Joan facilitates integration with several third-party applications, such as Office 365, Slack, Zapier, Microsoft Teams, and more. It also provides iOS and Android mobile applications, which let users book rooms remotely. It is available on monthly or annual subscriptions and support is extended via documentation, email and FAQs. > > Verdict: Rated **4.8/5** by 77 users.

Integrates with Exchange/Outlook and really helps with the scheduling of rooms and resources. > > **Cons**: Nothing\! I have not found anything I don't like about it. > > Scheduling rooms - visual reminder of who has the room or resource scheduled, eliminates poachers and let's people schedule the room on the spot. ----- ### "A Beautiful and Functional Tablet with Great Support, but Mind the Mount" — 5.0/5 > **Kenyon** | *9 September 2025* | Leisure, Travel & Tourism | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: Joan makes fantastic tablets that have significantly improved our appointment management. We use about 15 of them, and they are beautiful and extremely easy to use, displaying upcoming meetings and the current meeting status at a glance. What I like most is the e-ink display; it's gorgeous and makes the tablet incredibly battery-efficient. We only need to charge them once a month or every two months. While the initial cost may seem steep, the value is justified by the incredible customer support we've received, which has resolved every issue we've had. Beyond meeting rooms, the visitor management system is a significant pro. It streamlines the check-in process, replacing manual sign-in sheets with a smooth, digital experience. Visitors can pre-register or sign in on the spot, and the system can automatically send notifications to the host's email, SMS, or via an app alert, ensuring they are promptly aware of their guest's arrival. This creates a much more professional and seamless first impression. > > **Cons**: The biggest issue we've had is with the physical hardware. The magnets, while seemingly secure, allow the tablets to fall easily if they are gently bumped. On top of that, the case is prone to splitting or breaking upon impact. While we've been lucky that most have continued to function, this lack of durability is a concern. > > Our overall experience with Joan Tablets has been very positive. The beautiful e-ink displays, fantastic battery life, and powerful features like the visitor management system make them a great solution for managing our office space. While the physical durability is a concern, the exceptional customer support has always been there to help, making them a worthwhile investment. I would highly recommend these, but with the caveat to place them somewhere they are unlikely to be bumped. ----- ### "Just okay" — 3.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *11 January 2020* | Higher Education | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: This program is used in our lab space in order to indicate to students when they are able to enter a particular room for their assessment to be recorded > > **Cons**: While the software works as described, it tends to be rather "glitchy" and does not always perform as intended. > > Just okay - will continue to use for the time-being, but if something better comes along, may change. ----- ### "Easy to use, Can we add more data capturing?" — 5.0/5 > **Jaylon** | *24 February 2026* | Food & Beverages | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: Easily accessible and easy to teach employees. The app and the website make it easy for short informationally. > > **Cons**: I would like to see the app and website look into reporting. This would be helpful with knowing how many employee's we have in the building. > > Overall, Its a great application. I enjoy it and my employees do as well. Biggest thing is just wanting to get something in reporting. ----- ### "Great App, very intuitive" — 5.0/5 > **Mihai** | *26 August 2025* | Airlines/Aviation | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: It is a very easy to use App, that allows you to book a free desk on a daily basis. As we are 60 people and only 30 desks, it is very important for us to have such an App. Each time when I go to the office I can choose my desk, do the Check In procedure remotely from my phone, and have my desk ready when I arrive. I can also see who is sitting in the office next to me in that specific day. The App works great without having any bugs nor issues, and did not provide any error until now. It is very usefull and a great value for money. Making an appointment is really easy and intuitive. > > **Cons**: The load time of the application is sometimes too much. The App is very slow and I have to wait until the Map is loaded. When I go from one day to the next one, it takes a lot of time to load the map. Also, sometimes the App in the Windows EDGE Browser is slow and takes more than 10 seconds to load the map. > > The over all experience is good, and I love the interface. Thank's God that until now it was not needed to contact the customer support, and that all works smoothly. I am really enjoying the App. ----- Page: 1 / 4\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/146320/joan?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/146320/joan) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | fr | | ----- ## Structured Data
