FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is hybrid work software?

Hybrid work software helps people plan when to come into the office and helps leaders see how that plan works out. Kadence combines desk and room booking, team scheduling and office neighborhoods with attendance reporting, so employees know who will be in and workplace teams can see how each office is used.

What is Hybrid Work?

Hybrid work is a model that mixes in-office work and remote work. It lets employees divide their time between home and office. This approach provides a balance between the flexibility of remote work and the face-to-face connection with your teammates when you’re in the office.

What is the difference between Remote and Hybrid Work?

Remote and hybrid work differ mainly in flexibility. Remote work provides more freedom, letting employees work from anywhere. Hybrid work means alternating between home and office work. Remote work isn’t geographically bound, so companies can hire worldwide. In contrast, hybrid work requires regular office attendance.

What is a Hybrid Work Schedule?

A hybrid work schedule helps to let your teammates know when you’re going to be in the office so they can plan to come in when you’re there. When you multiply this at scale, companies will find that their teams are far more productive. By allowing their teams to seamlessly coordinate hybrid schedules, employee retention and well-being will vastly improve due to not having to waste a commute to the office.

What is a Hybrid Workplace Policy?

A hybrid workplace policy sets the rules, values and expectations for employees in a hybrid work model. It details how remote and in-office work will be combined, including when to be present, how to communicate, and office space arrangements.

How does Kadence help teams coordinate office days?

Employees star the colleagues they work with most and see when they plan to be in. Team Kadence shows when your team is coming in, and notifications suggest days when starred colleagues or your team will be there. People can set more than one work status in a day, including remote, so plans stay accurate. See team day planning.

Can Kadence report on hybrid policy compliance?

Yes. Workplace Insights shows attendance by team, department and location. Insights Plus adds custom dashboards, including policy compliance reporting against an in-office goal such as three days a week. Attendance comes from check-ins, including automatic check-in through the Kadence Agent, so reports reflect who came in. See workplace occupancy.

Does Kadence work in Microsoft Teams and Slack?

Yes. Employees can book desks and rooms from Microsoft Teams, Slack, the web and the Kadence mobile app, and room bookings sync both ways with Outlook and Google Calendar. Kadence AI lets people book by chatting with Kadence in Teams or Slack. Admins can sign everyone in with SSO and sync the directory, so teams stay up to date.

Do we need a hybrid work policy before we start?

No, but a clear policy makes coordination easier. Kadence supports anything from flexible days to fixed team days and office neighborhoods, and attendance reporting shows how the policy works in practice. If you are writing or updating a policy, see what a hybrid work policy should cover.
