Why Teams Switch from Kadence

First, credit where it’s due. Kadence is a well-known workplace software for larger organizations, covering everything from desk, room and parking booking to visitor management with kiosk check-in, room displays and HRIS integrations.

Still, teams running one office or a handful may prefer a booking tool that’s more focused and quicker to set up.

Dibsido is a Kadence alternative that does this job well: people book desks, meeting rooms and parking from the web, the mobile app, Microsoft Teams or Slack. Prices are on our pricing page, you can pay monthly or yearly, admins edit floor plans themselves, and reports and heatmaps show how your office is actually used.

Chances are, your question’s already been asked. We’ve put together a list of the most common ones.

What are the main differences between Dibsido and Kadence?

Dibsido and Kadence differ in a few concrete ways:
Focus: Dibsido is built for hybrid offices that want simple booking for desks, meeting rooms and parking. Kadence is a broader workplace-operations platform for mid-market and enterprise companies. It adds visitor kiosks, HRIS integrations and space planning through its SpaceOps module.
Pricing model: Dibsido’s prices are on its website. It starts with a free plan for up to 10 users, and paid desk booking is $1.90 per user or $3.00 per desk a month. Kadence doesn’t publish prices. Every plan is quoted, billed per active user, and signed for at least one year, billed annually.
Setup and ease of use: Dibsido is self-serve. Upload a floor plan, add desks, rooms and parking, and invite your team in a few minutes without IT help. Kadence starts with a demo and guided onboarding.
Floor plans: In Dibsido, admins edit unlimited interactive floor plans themselves at no extra cost. On Kadence’s WorkOps Pro plan, floor plan editing is a paid add-on.
Both tools cover everyday desk, room and parking booking well. Kadence suits large, multi-site organizations that need enterprise space planning. Dibsido suits teams that want to get started quickly at a price they can see up front.

How does Dibsido pricing compare with Kadence?

Kadence doesn’t publish prices, so a direct comparison isn’t possible without a quote. Kadence bills per active user on a one-year minimum, billed annually. Dibsido’s prices are public, from $1.90 per user/month, with monthly or yearly billing. If you already have a Kadence quote, compare it with our pricing page.

Is there a free Kadence desk booking alternative?

Not a like-for-like one. Kadence is a workplace platform for larger organizations, and its higher plans add visitor management, room displays and space planning on top of booking, so no free tool replaces all of it one to one. If you’re a small team that mainly needs desk, meeting room and parking booking, Dibsido’s Free plan may be all you need. It covers up to 10 users, 1 meeting room and 5 parking spots, with interactive floor plans, reports and the mobile apps, with no time limit and no credit card required.

Can I try Dibsido without talking to sales?

Yes. Start a 14-day free trial with every feature, no credit card required, and set up your office yourself. If you'd rather see it first, you can book a demo.

When is Kadence the better choice?

Kadence is a strong choice if you run a large, multi-site workplace and want one platform for booking, visitor kiosks, room displays, HRIS-driven attendance data and space planning. If you mainly need people to book desks, meeting rooms and parking this week, at a price you can see upfront, Dibsido does that with less setup.

Can we switch from Kadence to Dibsido?

Yes. Upload your existing floor plans, map desks, rooms and parking spots, and invite people with Microsoft or Google sign-in (SSO and SCIM provisioning are available on higher plans). Room bookings sync with Google and Outlook calendars, so meetings already in people's calendars stay where they are.

Does Dibsido work with Microsoft Teams, Outlook, Slack and Google Calendar?

Yes. Dibsido integrates with Microsoft Teams, Outlook/Microsoft 365, Slack and Google Calendar, so people can book without leaving the tools they already use.

Where is Dibsido's data hosted?

In the EU, on Microsoft Azure in Frankfurt. Dibsido is ISO 27001 certified and GDPR-compliant, and SSO (SAML: Microsoft Entra ID, Okta, Google) is available.
