Fast deployment of a clear and well built system
Post the Governments Return to Work strategy, we had to react quickly in order to deploy a solution that kept our staff safe. UMA was able to deliver their Vision solution quickly which enabled us to continue business in a responsible way.
PROSI think most importantly we were able to scale down our workspace after understanding a more 360 vision on it's utilisation. This has saved us a considerable amount monthly as a business. Alongside this, our team loves the ability to walk in and out of meeting rooms with auto-booking enabled. This saves the constant battle for space and ensures we are working at our most efficient.
CONSUMA Vision is clear and delivers more than the team at UMA had promised. They mentioned about a new indoor air quality measurement which we're looking forward to using, so I suppose the only con is that it's not already live!

UMA Vision Review
Easy to configure, very attractive intuitive user interface.
PROSThe hot desk sensors work very well. I'd say we had about 99% accuracy, which is great.
CONSI found the voice commands on the app to be a bit lacking, but also I prefer typing.
Reason for choosing UMA Vision
UMA has a focus on room/desk booking over signage.

UMA - The Workplace of the Future
Good and the team are always open to new requests via the feature portal. The regular updates via email are always welcome.
PROSI use the floor map most often to book out my desk and see availability for meeting rooms. The seamless integration with Outlook and being able to add in Webex meetings is great.
CONSThe voice feature needs some improvement. People are used to Siri and others being very capable of dealing with most prompts. i.e. to be able to say "book me a meeting room at 3pm on Wednesday" and it does it and not have to go through a number of other prompts.

Great for booking desks, seeing what desks are booked for each day, analytics
CONSMeeting room booking (can't book meeting rooms for the whole day), hard to know when meeting rooms are booked/ available. Only way you can see that is though floor plan and changing dates & time

UMA Vision
UMA Vision is easy to use, looks nice (dark version soon ), adds features that we ask for, and is helpful whenever we have problems. If you go with a company that might be larger than UMA, you may get a "complete" product, however usually when you ask them for a new feature you'll never hear from them again. As an IT guy I get asked a lot of questions about most of the software we use. However, I never really get asked anything about Vision unless they're asking me to change something. This shows that it's an easy to use software for every user, not just someone who is tech minded.
PROSAs a user, UMA Vision allows me to easily book desks and meeting rooms with little effort. I get to make sure I have booked 1 of the limited amount of hotdesks we have within our business, meaning I can always make sure I have access to a desk before I arrive. As an administrator of the software, Vision allows me to keep track of the analytics for all our offices globally. It helps me troubleshoot problems with the sensors by telling me which devices are offline, the most used resource, and much more useful info. In my job I need to test a lot of different software that we sell. I have used some that are very similar to UMA and setting them up is always a big annoyance. Adding resources and users to Vision is as easy as you think it would be, just a few button presses and you're good to go. Vision helped us a lot during lockdown, and it continues to help us as people make their way back into the office. We get to see how busy our offices are around the globe and it gives us a good insight into what days are the busiest. This helps me as I need to be in the office when others are, before UMA I would go in and be on my own, however now I can see in advance when I will be needed.
CONSUMA Vision is still early in development. This is a good thing because you can request features and UMA listens, however, it also means there might be something you want that isn't readily available. Again though, you can request these features and they release new updates very regularly.

UMA Vision (A vision of the future)
Our overall experience has been very positive. Honest, open and transparent communication with the UMA team has resulted in a positive partnership moving forward.
PROSThe UMA Vision software is easy to deploy using the O365 tenant system that was already in place so there was limited work required from IT. Once deployed users have a multitude of ways to book resources (rooms & desks) and can quickly see what is available to support a confident return to the office as part of our hybrid strategy.
CONSNo. Nothing that I can think of currently.
Reason for choosing UMA Vision
We chose UMA due to ease of use, technical support, deployment support and integrations.

Super simple and easy to use software
Easy to set up and integrate with Outlook, easy for staff to use, nice looking interface. Would definitely recommend.
PROSIt solved a problem for desk management and meeting room booking in our business. Especially since Covid we have to have tighter measures to manage who is working from each desk and at what times and UMA does that for us.
CONSThere is no aboility to book a meeting room for longer than a day. This is a common requirement for us. For example if we want to book a meeting room for a week of training then this means we have to book one day at a time.

Map creation and desk PIR deployment
Fluidity and effiiency when it comes to staff booking out Hot desks and meeting roms. It ensure that there are zero clashes and that team members know where there work station is for the day and that it is reserved for them. It also provides peace of mind following the pandemic in that meeting rooms are allocated a certain head count and teh UMA App states if the meeting rooms have become over occupied.
PROSThe ease in which UMA can populate maps with the client site layout and resources required for employees to book Hot Desk and meeting room functions. UMA has been established with the times, it counts participants in meeting rooms and prompts of the room is at capacity. Its a great tool, minimal installation, and the team at UMA are easy to work with whilst guiding you through the software and install requirments.
CONSThis is hard to answer with any negatives. The tool really isn't difficult to work with, it takes minimium impact on its set up and deployment. It does what it was set out and sold to do.

Desk-Booking Office-Goer Review
More than anything, it's great because it encourages people to get back to the office via a new and interesting interaction. The office approach needs rejuvenated and this is a great step towards that.
PROSThe visualisation of our office floor makes booking a desk for a day very intuitive: find the desk, click it if it's green and then book it. It is also really helpful that this is added to your Outlook calendar thanks to some clever integration.
CONSFunctionality is slightly limited and obviously, simply booking a desk via UMA Vision doesn't mean nobody will take your desk. Perhaps an in-office, hardware integration that reflects the software would be useful?

Fantastic software that has enabled a smooth transition to office life post covid
Being able to report on resource usage and numbers in the office down to small detail is a huge positive for us, especially when monitoring office numbers to ensure safe distancing.

PROSThe UMA system integrated seemlessly with our exisitng systems. Set up was very straight forward with a very short implementation time.

UMA - Not just room booking
Great- The ability to book a desk with a 2 metre COVID bubble from home and arrive and check in seamlessly.
PROSAfter reviewing the market UMA quickly became the clear choice given its modular design and future scope. While initially looking at a room booking solution UMA stood out not only for its ability to offer a level of granularity down to individual desk and room assets but its ability to scale and act as a total building management solution scaling to encompass forward looking elements such as air quality and integration into wider systems.
CONSInitial detail of building and rooms that is required was initially daunting, though once understood and how it can maximise the utility of the product the challenge was soon overcome.
