What about Social Distancing in the Office?

Administrative users can add and remove desk availability as workplace capacity and social distancing guidelines change in your local area. It is as simple as opening the floor plan and determining which desks are available to book, creating an evenly spaced, safe work environment, to ensure social distancing is actively in place.
