The IT Manager
The Backbone of
a Modern Workplace
You are the person everyone turns to when systems need to work, when tools need to connect, and when “technology should just do its job.”
Because after all, isn’t it just a matter of programming?
IT carries the hidden complexity of every meeting
You make sure every click, every login, and every integration keeps the organization running smoothly.
But behind the seamless experience everyone takes for granted lies a complex reality few people truly understand.
IT departments carry the hidden complexity of every meeting that takes place. Behind each booked room or visitor sign-in lies a maze of systems - calendars, resources, devices, security policies, and user expectations - that must all work together flawlessly. Managing applications for meeting management at scale means balancing integrations, uptime, compliance, and user support across departments that all work differently.
When meeting tools aren’t integrated natively into Microsoft 365, IT ends up maintaining overlapping systems, inconsistent data, and manual workarounds that frustrate users and drain resources. Every small inefficiency compound: support tickets rise, adoption drops, governance weakens, and productivity suffers. What looks like “just another app” to employees becomes a critical operational burden for IT — one that quietly erodes both efficiency and trust in workplace technology.
The Unseen Complexity of the Digital Workplace
As an IT leader, your world is full of moving parts: rooms, calendars, devices, security policies, and user expectations. You need systems that integrate, scale, and stay compliant.
You deal with:
- Fragmented tools that don’t integrate with Microsoft 365 or each other.
- Shadow IT and user workarounds that compromise security and consistency.
- Constant support tickets for meeting issues, calendar conflicts, and visitor confusion.
- Pressure from leadership to reduce costs, increase uptime, improve productivity, and prove ROI of all the investments.
- Resistance from employees who just want simple tools that “don’t get in their way.”
You’re the one responsible for connecting everything, while being invisible when it works and the first to blame when it doesn’t.
“Everyone wants smooth meeting experiences, but they forget how many systems, processes and not least people that need to talk to each other for that to happen.”
“A Wonderful Upgrade to our Room Reservation System!"
I LOVE that AskCody is integrated with Outlook. It makes reserving, editing and canceling reservations so quick and easy. The interface is very easy to use and is so customizable to our needs. I love that we can make it our own and customize our rooms, vendors, and services from the Admin side"
"Quality room management system with quality people supporting it"
I give AskCody 10/10. It is a phenomenal solution. Easy to implement. It's easy to train on, and it is easy to use. We use AskCody to allow our population to easily and confidently book rooms across all our offices, giving them the ability to do it themselves. Kind of removing the middle person"
“A massive productivity boost for our secretaries!"
"Our secretaries managed two or three attorneys and partners before. Now they're managing maybe five or six. It's only possible to manage that increased workload, because they can handle everything in one spot with AskCody. "
“We handle all reservations and requests for a room under one roof"
"Admins can manage each reservation for a room and each request that is needed for that event or meeting all under one roof, really helped a lot with organizing and it's much better for our attorneys as well. Everyone gets it"

How to Prevent Double Bookings in Outlook and Microsoft 365
Common questions from IT Managers
AskCody is natively built on Microsoft 365. It doesn’t sit beside it, it lives inside it.
That means all meeting bookings are managed directly through Outlook and Exchange, with no separate calendars or duplicate meeting data.
AskCody connects seamlessly with your Entra IT, uses Single Sign-On (SSO), and respects your organization’s existing permission structures.
In practice, this means no context switching, no new system training, and minimal IT maintenance. Your users work where they already work.
Implementation depends on your organization’s size and complexity, but most AskCody deployments take 4–12 weeks from kickoff to go-live.
Our onboarding team collaborates directly with IT, Facilities, and Workplace teams to:
-
Connect to your Microsoft 365 tenant.
-
Connects rooms, resources, and permissions.
-
Configure integrations for visitor management, catering, and services.
- Train admins and key users.
Because AskCody is cloud-based and Microsoft-native, there’s no heavy infrastructure or on-prem install — setup is fast, secure, and non-disruptive.
Security is foundational to AskCody. Just check our Trust Center.
We follow Microsoft’s standards and best practices for identity, authentication, and data privacy.
AskCody:
-
Runs on Microsoft Azure with GDPR compliance.
-
Uses Entra IT authentication and SSO for access control.
-
Stores no sensitive meeting content - it mirrors existing calendar data through secure APIs.
- Offers regional data residency options for compliance.
In short, AskCody meets the same security expectations as your Microsoft environment itself.
AskCody actually reduces IT overhead, rather than adding to it.
Because it’s fully integrated with Microsoft 365, there’s:
-
No separate infrastructure to host or maintain.
-
No data synchronization to monitor.
- No extra logins or user databases to manage.
Routine maintenance is minimal. Updates are automatic, and IT simply governs access, policies, and permissions.
Most IT teams find that AskCody reduces helpdesk tickets related to meeting rooms, booking errors, and visitor check-ins by up to 30–50%.
IT Managers see both operational and strategic outcomes:
-
Simplified environment: Fewer tools, tighter Microsoft integration, less support demand.
-
Improved visibility: Analytics on room and resource utilization drive smarter workplace planning.
-
Better user experience: Employees, assistants, and service teams work more efficiently.
- Cross-departmental alignment: IT, Facilities, and Workplace teams operate on one shared platform.
Ultimately, AskCody helps IT become a strategic enabler of productivity and data-driven decision-making, not just a systems administrator.
Your Workplace. Your Systems. Your AskCody.
You build the foundation that makes everything else possible.
AskCody helps make it seamless.
