2. NOW: What Are We Currently Working On

At AskCody we are constantly working to improve the core of our platform based on input from our customers. Below you can find the primary things our product and development departments are focusing on at the time of writing.

We have only included larger platform improvements. Some improvements may not appear on the list, either because they are deemed smaller improvements or apply to a sub-set of our customers.  

 

2.1 Security, Compliance, and Scalability

Security and compliance have always been our focus and will continue to be so. We are ISAE3000 certified and have taken supplementary measures based on the European Data Protection Board (EDPB) guidelines following the Schrems II ruling. All to ensure safety and trust in how we process data.

We will continue: 

  • To provide top class protection against OWASP top 10 security risks
  • To deliver the best available security standards
  • To ensure that your data is handled as securely as possible

2.2 Microsoft Graph Integration

Our Exchange integration ensures a single source of truth for our customers and is currently built on Exchange Web Services (EWS). The successor for EWS is Microsoft Graph and this will be the future gateway for data and intelligence in Microsoft 365. To keep our tight integration to Exchange and open up for future innovation on our platform, we are currently working to integrate to Microsoft Graph.

This is a prerequisite for amongst others to provide the functionality to order services for recurring meetings - which is also a part of our product roadmap 2022.

3. NEXT: What We Will Work On Next

In the near future we will start working on the following product improvements to the platform. Be aware that we have other improvements in our pipeline. But these are the prioritized next projects for the development and product team. 

 

3.1 Visitors Internationalization

We want to improve how our Visitor Management handles languages for visitors, receptions, and hosts for large enterprises that either span multiple locations or are situated in multi-lingual areas. This will include sending guiding emails and texts to visitors and hosts in their chosen language. 

 

3.2 The New Workplace Central

We want to empower facility teams and booking coordinators with an improved layout and user experience by creating a new Workplace Central. This will provide a grid-like overview of all rooms and desk bookings including service requests and notes. The goal is to make it easy to get a quick overview of all activities in the office.
