94 FEATURE We asked selected partners how they are using Microsoft technology-powered tools to help financial services organisations upskill their employees and boost productivity Partner perspectives “Crestron Desk Scheduling solutions make it easy for financial services organisations to effortlessly transition to hot desking by enabling remote workers to book a space via software on their laptop before they come in to the office. Meanwhile, office-based employees can reserve a space by using the compact touch screen or quickly scanning a QR code, with highly visible LED status indicators displaying which desks are available to save them valuable time. As with existing Crestron Microsoft Meeting Room solutions, the Crestron desk scheduling solutions can be managed and deployed through the Crestron XiO Cloud Management Platform, thus minimising the downtime of meeting rooms, as well as desk-scheduling and meeting-room technology.” Giselle Bou Ghanem Senior Director, Product Marketing Lead Avaya Toine C.
