Broken printer at the office? Use Housekeeper to inform your colleagues.

In modern offices, vital equipment is shared among many. However, if the frequently used office tools break down, the information is not always distributed adequately among colleagues, which can cause frustration or stress. 

Have you for example tried to print documents on a paper-jammed printer, even though your colleague tried five minutes earlier? Or have you tried to use a projector in a customer meeting, without knowing that the projector lamp broke a week ago? 

Now imaging that you got the information before attempting to use the equipment. 

Our feature – Housekeeper - quickly communicates failure reports to everyone in the office to prevent negative friction. Through Flowscape’s system, employees can easily report non-functioning equipment with just one click and add an explanation of what is wrong. As soon as the report is sent, a warning symbol pops up on the Flow Map - both for the responsible caretaker and your colleagues to see. Like this, offices can speed up the process of tracking and repairing broken equipment, as well as maintain a positive flow.
