What Joan Workplace is

Joan Workplace is a workplace management platform for booking desks, meeting rooms, parking, and shared assets, as well as managing visitors and workplace digital signage.

Listed integrations include Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, Exchange, Microsoft Teams, Zoom, Slack, Cisco Webex, Zapier, Okta, Azure, and the Joan API. Joan lists a self-service support center and real-time chat. It describes use in hybrid corporate offices, enterprise and multi-location workplaces, and flexible or activity-based workplaces. Visionect d.o.o. holds ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certification.
