Both help secure the workplace. FacilityOS centers on facility operations and compliance. Envoy connects security and safety to the broader workplace.
Bring more workplace context into every decision
Know who may actually be affected by a threat
Match global and hyperlocal threat intelligence to real-time workplace presence, so teams can quickly identify the people and locations that may need attention.
Build a more complete picture of workplace presence
Combine signals from HRIS, MDM, Wi-Fi, access control, SSO, geolocation, and visitor sign-ins to understand who’s onsite and where.
Manage the spaces employees use every day
Let employees reserve desks, rooms, and parking while giving admins utilization insights to make better use of workplace space.
Reach people where they’ll see it
Extend workplace and emergency communications to shared displays, helping teams reach people who may not see an SMS, email, or app notification.
Give employees one place to navigate the workplace
Bring workplace access, reservations, schedules, and onsite information into a connected experience instead of separate facility workflows.
Connect safety, security, and workplace operations
Use shared visitor, presence, space, and incident context across the workplace instead of managing each workflow in isolation.
