Why Offision for IT managers

IT needs SSO and calendar sync that fit existing Microsoft or Google estates, device heartbeats that show offline panels early, and security settings that still apply when sign-in moves to a provider.

Why this happens

Connection mode is a one-time decision

Connection mode decides what syncs — choose first.

Microsoft 365 and Google modes — one per tenant.

Microsoft 365 connection modes

Sign-in is separate from calendar sync

SSO and calendar sync are independent switches.

SSO in Directory, separate from calendar sync.

Security profiles still bind everyone

Password policy vs security profiles — different scopes.

Permission groups and profiles across every module.

Who can open the management console

Devices share a heartbeat

Offline panels noticed in the corridor, not in admin.

Heartbeat alerts when hardware goes offline.

Email when a device goes offline

Impact

Who pays for this today

The same problem costs each group something different — and they rarely compare notes.

Impact

IT manager

You keep identity, calendars and wall hardware healthy without owning facilities policy.

Impact

Security owner

You set security profiles, login-device hygiene and branding/email that leave from your domain.

Impact

Workplace systems lead

You bridge IT and facilities so sync, permissions and panels stay consistent.

Common questions

Does calendar sync replace Booking rules?

No. Sync brings rooms and meetings across. Team spaces, booking windows and quota still live in Booking.

How long do login devices stay valid?

About thirty days. Deactivating an account or changing a password does not end a device session — signing the device out does.

Are Teams Rooms devices Offision devices?

Usually no. They can show Offision signage content while staying under their own management.
