Check-ins are essentially logs of when our members arrive at our space and when they leave it (check-outs).
Why is check-in and out so important?
Check-ins serve multiple purposes; our system tracks the presence of members for a few reasons. West Quay Offices is a Smart Office, and we are working hard each day to make it smarter. We use technology at its fullest to give you a good working and living space. Devices in West Quay Offices adjust themselves to your presence. These devices include air conditioning, air purifiers, locks, coffee machines, and other resources. So if we know you are at the office, we can run the machines for you and for your resources.
Basically, when you check in and out:
- We verify your membership, especially if your membership is limited, We verify your passes, and you will be billed from the time you check in until you check out.
- We run air conditioning for you to maintain the perfect temperature in your presence.
- If you have a visitor, we will know you are on premises, so we can let you know. Otherwise, we can return your visitor, telling them that you are not at the office.
- We adjust lights for you.
- We unlock doors for you.
- If you are coming during non-business hours, we will lower our security system in your presence.
- We update the Team Dashboard and your Team Attendence if you are a part of the team (optional).
Ways to check-in and out
By connecting to our WiFi
You can connect to our WiFi, and this will automatically check you in. When you leave our WiFi, you will be checked out automatically. This method is the easiest, but it may not work fluently sometimes. Especially Apple devices may sleep and take WiFi off when they are not in use. Checking out with WiFi may have a delay, you might be extra billed if your access is on hourly basis. Or, you might not connect to WiFi immediately. In those cases, or for peace of mind, you may want to use other methods below.
There may also be a 15-minute delay on WiFi network check-ins. This delay may be important if you are a Private Office owner coming on the weekend and there is no-one at the office so air conditioning is off. If this is a hot day, you may want to trigger AC as soon as possible, and checking in is the only way to do this immediately without any delay.
