# Every Door James module in one subscription

> Door James combines desk booking, meeting room booking, visitor management, parking, event management, service bookings, evacuation support and occupancy analytics in a single platform. Every module is part of the subscription and is activated per organization or location in the Admin Panel; there are no module licences and no per-feature pricing.

One subscription, all modules. Each location switches on exactly what it needs, from desk booking to evacuation management.

## Key facts

- **Modules:** all included in the subscription, no module licences
- **Activation:** per organization and location in the Admin Panel
- **Channels:** web app, iOS, Android, Microsoft Teams, kiosk
- **Languages:** 9 in the member app, 4 in the Admin Panel

## One booking model for every resource

Door James makes no hard distinction between a desk, a meeting room and a parking space. Everything bookable is an **asset** on the same foundation: availability windows, lead times, maximum duration, recurring bookings, approvals, visibility, group restrictions, equipment attributes, check-in requirements and automatic release after a no-show.

That is why the model extends to resources classic desk-booking tools do not cover: focus rooms, lockers, lab equipment, pool cars, e-bikes or gym slots. Administrators keep one maintenance routine, employees keep one interface.

## How the modules work together

The real value sits in the transitions between modules. A visitor invitation reserves the meeting room and the parking space. Check-in data feeds the evacuation list. Occupancy data from bookings and check-ins drives demand-based cleaning. A reported problem at a desk becomes a ticket for facility management and blocks the asset until it is fixed.

## Configuration instead of development

Door James is a standardized product: requirements are met through configuration, not customer-specific forks. That covers roles and permissions, booking rules, privacy and retention periods, floor plans, asset types, notifications and feature visibility. Every organization manages these settings itself in the Admin Panel after the rollout.

## Pages in this section

- [Office management](https://doorjames.com/features/office-management/): Door James is office management software that covers the daily operation of an office in a single application: desk and meeting room booking, visitor management, parking and assets, events, service requests, evacuation management and occupancy analytics. All modules are included in one subscription, share one user directory from Microsoft Entra ID and produce one consistent set of utilization data.
- [Desk booking](https://doorjames.com/features/desk-booking/): Door James desk booking lets employees reserve desks through an interactive floor plan or a list view – on the desktop, in the iOS and Android apps or inside Microsoft Teams. Filters by equipment, a colleague finder, recurring bookings, booking on behalf of others and check-in by QR code or geofence are all part of the standard.
- [Room booking](https://doorjames.com/features/meeting-room-booking/): Door James room booking synchronizes bidirectionally with Microsoft Exchange and Outlook through the Graph API: rooms blocked in Outlook cannot be booked in Door James and vice versa. Ad-hoc booking at the room, equipment filters, service orders such as catering and automatic release after a no-show complete the module.
- [Visitor management](https://doorjames.com/features/visitor-management/): Door James visitor management replaces the paper list at reception: employees invite guests by email with a QR code and visit ID, visitors check themselves in at a tablet kiosk, confirm the privacy notice and safety briefing, optionally receive a printed badge – and the host is notified automatically by email and push notification.
- [Space management](https://doorjames.com/features/space-management/): Space management in Door James models locations, buildings, floors, areas and every bookable resource on interactive floor plans. Capacities, desk-sharing ratios, team zones, booking rules and approvals are configured per area, and real check-in data shows whether the model matches reality – the basis for consolidating, reducing or reallocating space.
- [Event management](https://doorjames.com/features/event-management/): Door James event management covers the whole flow: create events, invite attendees or import them by CSV, configure registration forms and capacities, plan sessions and booths, generate badges and check people in by QR code at the door. Attendees see their agenda in the app, ask speakers questions and carry their badge in Apple Wallet.
- [Evacuation management](https://doorjames.com/features/evacuation-management/): Evacuation management uses existing check-in data from employees and visitors as a live presence list: admins trigger an emergency, see who is presumed to be present, record status reports and coordinate the assembly point. Door James additionally manages first aiders with qualification, validity period, contact details and area of responsibility.
- [Workplace analytics](https://doorjames.com/features/workplace-analytics/): Workplace analytics evaluates bookings, check-ins, no-shows, cancellations and visitor numbers and shows real occupancy per location, floor, area and weekday. Automatic reports, exports and multi-location comparison provide the basis for space decisions, demand-based cleaning and CO₂ reporting.
- [Room displays & signage](https://doorjames.com/features/room-displays/): Door James Screen turns any tablet or display into a live screen: a meeting room door sign, a floor overview of all rooms, a lobby welcome board, a you-are-here floor plan, an occupancy dashboard or an info board. A device is paired by scanning a QR code, ten ready-made layouts get it running in minutes, and the content updates in real time without anyone touching the screen again.
- [Utilization data](https://doorjames.com/features/utilization-data/): Door James derives office utilization data from bookings and check-ins rather than from sensors: a booking is an intention, a check-in is measured presence, and the gap between them is the no-show rate. Metrics are available per location, floor, area, resource and weekday, cover employees, visitors and meetings, and can be exported for BI reporting – without evaluating individual employees.
- [Parking & assets](https://doorjames.com/features/parking-and-assets/): Door James manages parking spaces and EV charging points with licence plate management, fair quotas and booking before people set off. Custom assets extend the same logic to any resource: lockers, pool cars, e-bikes, lab equipment, gym slots or tools – configurable per location, with no extra licence.
- [Services & tickets](https://doorjames.com/features/services-and-tickets/): With Service Bookings employees order location-based services such as catering, technical support or cleaning directly with a booking; admins configure the offering, contacts, availability and lead times. Through Report a Problem users report defective assets or app issues with a photo, which are processed as tickets in the Admin Panel.
- [Apps & channels](https://doorjames.com/features/apps-and-channels/): Door James is available through several channels: the web app at wa.doorjames.app, native iOS and Android apps with push and geofencing, a Microsoft Teams app, apps for Apple Watch and Wear OS, CarPlay and Android Auto for the commute, and kiosk tablets at reception. All channels work on the same data.
- [Digital employee badge](https://doorjames.com/features/digital-employee-badge/): Door James gives every employee a digital badge: a QR code that shares the profile and checks people in at events, a digital business card that transfers contact details as a vCard to any phone, and an Apple Wallet pass. The Wallet pass is not a screenshot – it registers with Apple's pass update service and refreshes itself when a session, an event or an attendance changes.
- [AI assistant](https://doorjames.com/features/ai-assistant/): Jaimes is the AI assistant inside Door James. It answers questions by text or voice and carries out the action itself: find a free desk, book it, cancel it, check in, find a colleague, switch location. It searches your own knowledge base for questions about your rules, can operate the interface on request after explicit permission, and hands over to human support when it cannot help. Off by default, enabled per organization.
- [Apple Watch & CarPlay](https://doorjames.com/features/apple-watch-and-carplay/): Door James runs on Apple Watch, on Wear OS and in CarPlay. The watch shows the next booking, checks people in and carries the badge QR code on the wrist. In the car the voice assistant handles booking and check-in hands-free, and Siri answers questions about the current booking out loud. Widgets and Live Activities keep the booking and the check-in window on the lock screen.

## Frequently asked questions

### Do we have to licence modules individually?

No. Door James is sold as one subscription per authorized user, not module by module. Modules you do not need simply stay deactivated. A few functions – the AI assistant among them – are switched on by CGI on request rather than in your own Admin Panel.

### Can different locations use different modules?

Yes. Module activation happens organization-wide and additionally per location, so visitor management can run only at sites that have a reception desk.

### What counts as an asset?

A desk is only one asset type. The same booking logic carries rooms, parking spaces, lockers, pool cars, e-bikes or lab equipment – anything that can be described with availability, rules and a position on a floor plan.
