ASKCODY INTEGRATION WITH MICROSOFT TEAMS

Yes.

A major reason why customers choose AskCody is our clean integration with Microsoft, how we are built, and how we do not mess up the IT departments work or systems. The AskCody Platform is not just another tool in the tech stack, but an integrated part of the Microsoft Suite – adding extra value to your existing digital infrastructure.

The true value of the synergy between AskCody and the Microsoft 365 Platform, is that one connection allows the two platforms to work seamlessly together. With a tight integration to Microsoft 365 (being Azure, Outlook, Exchange, Power-Bi) it means Microsoft Teams working out-of-the-box, leveraging the data model in Microsoft 365 where Teams is based on the same data as in Exchange and Outlook.

By its very core AskCody is native to Microsoft being built on Exchange Web Services (EWS). Because the AskCody Platform is built on a Microsoft foundation it natively interacts with: Exchange, Teams, Outlook, and Power-Bi.

Highlevel architecture of AskCody

Teams, Outlook, and Power-Bi are all built on Exchange, and that is why AskCody can process workplace data from Microsoft 365. This means that meetings booked in Outlook and Teams will be visible on the AskCody Room Displays  and Dashboards. The data is gathered in Power-Bi and accessible for analysis in the AskCody Insights module.

This means you have a clean integration to Outlook and Teams, without messing with the performance of your calendaring tool. This is important if you want to keep a clean and scalable IT Infrastructure.

With the AskCody Outlook Add-ins you can easily book meeting rooms and desks with the right amenities, add services like beverages and food, and let the reception know about visiting guests. After finding the right space to collaborate using AskCody, you can easily include a Teams-link natively from Outlook. Making sure every aspect of you meeting is cared for and fully synchronized on all platforms leveraging data from Microsoft Exchange. This creates a complete room and desk booking experience from your Outlook calendar.

You can easily use the AskCody Mobile App to make on-the-go adjustments to your meetings. Giving you the option to make quick changes to your meetings directly from your phone.

If you schedule a Teams video conference in one of your meeting rooms, it will be visible on the AskCody Room Displays and Dashboards in the office. This gives organizations a real-time overview of the activities happening in the workplace.

The data from your booked video conference meetings are gathered in Power-Bi, which is easily accessible for further reporting using AskCody Insights.

AskCody is unique in comparison to other meeting management and resource scheduling systems because it is built on Microsoft Exchange. The Microsoft foundation means AskCody does not need an API to interact with Teams. This is simply because AskCody, Teams, and Outlook are all built on Exchange.

The connection between AskCody and Teams, is completely free, unlike most other meeting management systems, that have a fee for a unique app that integrates between their platform and the video conferencing tools.
