Spacepad vs. Pronestor

Spacepad vs. Pronestor, now Sign In Workspace

Pronestor became part of Sign In Solutions and is now called Sign In Workspace. If you are reviewing your room displays after the change, Spacepad is a focused alternative that runs on any tablet.

Pronestor was acquired by Sign In Solutions in 2022 and lives on as Sign In Workspace, a workplace suite with room booking, catering, visitor management and room panels, priced on a tailored quote that includes hardware. Spacepad does one part of that, the display next to each meeting room, with a published price and the tablet of your choice.

Choose Spacepad if

  • You mainly need clear room displays with booking and check-in, not a full workplace suite.
  • You want a published price per display and to start today without a quote.
  • You want to use iPads or Android tablets you already own.
  • You want open source code, or to host everything on your own servers.

Pronestor may suit you better if

  • You want catering orders, visitor management and desk booking from the same vendor.
  • You prefer a supplier that delivers validated panels as part of the contract.
  • You book through the Outlook add-in and want occupancy sensors next to the panels.

A price on the website

$8 per display per month, or $80 per year. No quote, no annual hardware bundle. Enterprise quotes only start above 25 displays.

Bring your own tablets

Keep the iPads or Android tablets you have and mount them next to the door. Replacing one is a trip to the store, not a service ticket.

Switch in an afternoon

Spacepad reads the same Microsoft 365 or Google room calendars, so bookings stay where they are. Connect, install the app, enter a code.
