Release update CRE & FM: Q4 2022

In this 2022 - Q4 Planon Release Video for CRE & FM, Planon’s Frank Bögel and David Stillebroer share some key feature improvements you will find in the Planon product for Q4 and beyond.

Planon Workplace Insights: Planon has now introduced an improved user experience with better support for visualisation by increasing the number of space categories and types. There are also improved ways of displaying target values, such as temperature, utilisation or occupancy in floor plan scale. Other improvements include the introduction of a vacancy metric in the utilisation module, new support for background images in floor plans, the introduction of team or neighbourhood level analytics, and support for the global standards of space classifications via unlimited category and type combinations.

Planon Workplace App: In this video, Frank walks you through some improvements to the booking module that make it easier for users to make reservations and bookings, including additional features for hybrid office needs and more.

Planon Mobile Field Services: Frank also shares information around the redeveloped Planon Mobile Field Services app. He provides a short workflow management demo of what you can see inside the mobile app, and shares some additional unique characteristics around accessibility, workflow configurability, real-time updates, and platform integration, which you can find within the app now.

Planon IoT supporting ESG: David Stillebroer shares updates around Planon IoT and ESG. He introduces the IoT Smart Utility Metering use case, which in combination with Planon’s Energy & Sustainability Management module will support organisations that want to monitor and reduce their energy costs and carbon emissions.

Finally, Frank introduces some new apps available in the Planon Marketplace, including:

  • Planon Connect for Signhost, which helps you distribute documents and get them signed in a legally compliant way.
  • Planon Connect for Door Tablet, which you can use to improve the digital signage you display around your office.
  • Connect for Building Advisor, an app from our partner Schneider Electric, which provides automated and actionable intelligence to optimise condition-based maintenance of buildings.
