Product structure of Seatti and Pult

Before you compare features, it is worth looking at the product logic of both vendors. Whether a vendor bundles modules or separates product lines later determines the contract structure, IT complexity and total costs. For companies with enterprise structures, this is a central assessment criterion.

Seatti: Workspace Management and Office Intelligence at a glance

Seatti consists of two modules that together cover the operational and the strategic side of office organisation.

Workspace Management stands for booking and coordinating desks, meeting rooms, parking spaces and services directly in Microsoft Teams and Outlook. Seatti integrates Workspace Management directly into Microsoft Teams. For enterprise structures, several locations, companies and rule sets can be managed centrally, and roles and permissions can be controlled at a granular level. Via an open API, Workspace Enterprise can connect access control systems, HRIS and other office systems.

Office Intelligence brings together booking data, IP-based presence and the existing infrastructure, making actual office usage visible. Occupancy, trends and savings potential can be read off without live monitoring and without geolocation. This shows how much space is really needed, and desk bookings can be linked with space analyses.

In everyday office life, decisions about space and operating costs are made constantly, usually without reliable usage data as a basis. Booking data alone only shows how operations run, not how much space is actually needed. Seatti brings Workspace Management and Office Intelligence together in one system that runs natively in Microsoft 365 and makes actual space usage visible. The decisive question is therefore less whether usage data is needed, but how much longer you want to make space decisions without it.

Pult: Workplace, Presence AI and visitor management

Pult divides its features into three separate product lines, each licensed separately.

Pult Workplace (vendor pricing page, as of 20 October 2026) is available in four plans from Starter to Enterprise. Pult offers a free Starter plan for up to 20 users at one location. The Workplace line covers desk booking, room booking, parking, a hybrid work planner and integrations with Slack, Microsoft Teams, Google and Outlook as well as SSO. Pult thus connects various communication tools.

Presence AI is a standalone product line for Wi-Fi based attendance detection; the Business plan starts from €99 per month, and Enterprise is available on request. According to the vendor, it works without additional hardware, with a desktop agent, hosted in Germany on ISO 27001 certified infrastructure. Wi-Fi based attendance detection is a feature of Pult.

Visitor management is a separate product line with a Business plan from €99 per location per month. Visitor management covers registration and admission of visitors, and compliance requirements are important for effective visitor management.

Separating the product lines at Pult has a direct effect on pricing logic, the number of contracts and IT integration. Check internally whether separate product lines or a bundled system fits your administration better.

Prices and plans at a glance

The pricing models of Seatti and Pult are structurally different and not directly comparable. Seatti charges modules per user and bundles visitor management as an add-on. Pult separates attendance and visitor management into product lines of their own with flat rates. The following overview sets the prices side by side, each with unit, plan name and scope of services. There is no total cost calculation and no conclusion on price differences.

Seatti pricing structure

Seatti charges both modules, Workspace Management and Office Intelligence, per user per month; prices apply with annual payment. In Workspace Management, Essentials starts from €1.90 per user per month with desk booking, parking booking, Microsoft Teams integration and GDPR compliance. Workspace Pro from €2.90 adds room booking, extended booking rules, Outlook integration and compliance roles. Workspace Enterprise with API access and multi-tenant administration is priced individually.

Office Intelligence starts with Intelligence Essentials from €1.00 per user per month and includes IP-based presence and AI analytics. Intelligence Pro from €2.00 brings Seatti Signals, and Intelligence Enterprise offers full usage analysis on individual terms. Visitor management is an add-on that can be booked separately, with the price available on request.

There are no implementation costs. Technical configuration, training, floor plan creation and support are included in all plans (View Seatti pricing).

Pult pricing structure

Pult Workplace is billed per activated user per month (vendor pricing page, as of 20 October 2026). The Starter plan is free and applies to up to 20 users and one location. Workplace Growth costs €2.90 per user per month and includes desk, room and parking booking, a hybrid work planner, Slack, Teams and Google integration, SSO, calendar integrations and real time workplace analytics. Workplace Business at €3.90 per user per month adds HRIS integration, automatic check-in with Presence AI, policies and an approval system as well as a personal customer success manager. Workplace Enterprise is priced on request and adds white label, API, Okta integration and extended SLAs.

Presence AI and visitor management are offered as product lines of their own with flat rates: Presence AI Business from €99 per month (no per user price stated), visitor management Business from €99 per location per month, each with an Enterprise plan on request. Whether the prices apply to annual or monthly payment and which minimum term applies is best clarified directly with the vendor.

Features, integrations and data picture in everyday use

Hybrid work is the new norm in many professions. The decisive question for everyday use: which features cover hybrid office life, and how deep do the integrations go in Microsoft 365?

Desk booking, meeting rooms and resources

Desk booking is central to hybrid work organisation. Desk booking systems enable desks to be booked digitally, and interactive floor plans visualise available desks in real time.

With Seatti, you book desks, meeting rooms, parking spaces and services from the same interface in Microsoft Teams and Outlook. Seatti enables desk booking via Teams, and bookings are possible natively in Microsoft 365 and Teams. In enterprise structures, several locations and companies can be mapped with different booking rules and roles; Seatti is suitable for large organisations that manage several locations. Meeting rooms can be booked directly in Microsoft 365 and Teams. Synchronisation with Outlook prevents double bookings of meeting rooms, and meeting room management also includes real time availability.

According to the Growth plan, Pult Workplace covers desk, room and parking booking as well as a hybrid work planner and connects calendars with Outlook and Google.

The following review questions are worthwhile for your internal assessment: How granular do booking rules need to be? How many locations and zones are actually managed? Automated check-ins prevent desks from being blocked unnecessarily. How should that work in your office?

Integrations into Microsoft 365 and other systems

For companies with Microsoft 365, the quality of embedding into the existing platform is decisive.

Seatti runs directly in Microsoft Teams and Outlook, without a separate app as the main working interface; the Microsoft 365 integration is native. Microsoft Entra Sync synchronises users, groups and permissions automatically, which avoids duplicate data maintenance in Teams: new employees are created automatically and leavers are deactivated automatically. An open API connects access control systems, HRIS and other office systems.

According to the vendor, Pult offers a Workplace integration with Slack, Microsoft Teams, Google and Outlook. According to the plan comparison, SSO is available in all plans, with Okta integration in the Enterprise plan.

Four questions help with your internal clarification: Which identity system (Microsoft Entra ID, Okta, other) is leading? Is an HRIS connection needed and, if so, via which standard? Does your company primarily use Slack or Microsoft Teams? And is API access required for connecting to facility management or access control?

Data picture: from booking to occupancy

Booking systems show reserved desks, not actual attendance. No-shows and spontaneous use distort the picture. Pure booking data is not enough for reliable space decisions. Real attendance data is decisive for space decisions, and actual attendance must be recorded for space planning.

Seatti Office Intelligence combines booking data, IP-based presence and existing infrastructure into a realistic picture of usage, and actual office occupancy can be determined through IP-based presence measurement. Occupancy, trends and savings potential are shown in aggregated form, without live monitoring and without geolocation, so that Seatti enables analysis of actual space usage.

Pult relies on Presence AI as a separate product line with Wi-Fi based attendance, according to the vendor via existing infrastructure and without additional hardware. In addition, real time analytics provide data on office occupancy in the Workplace context.

Both approaches can answer questions such as: On which days is office occupancy highest? Which spaces are actually used? Office attendance is recorded through IP-based presence measurement or Wi-Fi based measurement. Which approach suits your company better depends on your IT landscape and your data protection requirements.

Attendance detection, data protection and the works council

Attendance data touches sensitive areas: data protection, co-determination and employees’ trust. Office attendance must be recorded in compliance with data protection law. This section explains the framework but does not replace legal advice.

Attendance detection in Seatti

Seatti detects attendance IP-based as part of Office Intelligence Essentials. Attendance is detected via existing network infrastructure, without additional sensors and without a separate check-in. Office attendance is recorded through IP-based presence measurement. The data is pseudonymised and aggregated, anonymous bookings are possible and stating the work location is optional. There is no live monitoring, no geolocation and no working time recording.

The data protection setup includes GDPR compliance, hosting and data processing in the EU, data processing under Art. 28 GDPR, encryption with TLS 1.2 and AES 256 and ISO 27001 certification. Seatti offers an ISO 27001 certified solution for Microsoft 365 and places great emphasis on data protection and compliance. Seatti is built to make alignment with co-determination easier. Works agreements should be reviewed individually by a lawyer.

Attendance detection in Pult

Pult Presence AI uses Wi-Fi based attendance measurement with a desktop agent, according to the vendor without additional hardware. Hosting is in Germany on ISO 27001 certified infrastructure. According to the plan comparison, the Workplace Business plan includes automatic check-in with Presence AI. Pult Workplace also provides booking data and real time analytics on office occupancy.

Attendance detection at a glance

The key points of both approaches at a glance, for Pult in each case according to the vendor (vendor pricing page, as of 20 October 2026):

For your assessment, you should also clarify how granular the attendance data is (floor, area, building), how long data is stored and which deletion periods apply, who may access which analyses (team leads, HR, management) and how employees are informed about data collection.

Works council and compliance: what matters in projects

Both solutions usually touch functions subject to co-determination. Check for each vendor which data is collected (booking, presence, visitors) and in which form (anonymised, aggregated). Seatti is explicitly not designed for working time recording; the focus is on space usage and office organisation. Visitor management requires documentation of visitors, and security requirements determine the scope of features.

It is recommended to involve the works council before the selection. Defining analysis permissions and thresholds for aggregation is essential. The data protection concept and the works agreement should be reviewed by internal or external legal counsel.

Office attendance can be increased through positive motivation. A transparent system aligned with co-determination supports acceptance.

‍

Implementation, rollout and ongoing support

In enterprise structures, the time to go-live, the involvement of IT and training determine the success of a rollout. A desk booking system must fit into employees’ everyday work.

Seatti rollout in practice

The Seatti rollout usually takes less than two weeks, and there are no implementation costs. The typical process in three phases:

Implementing Pult Workplace and Presence AI

The following information is based on the structure of Pult’s product lines, not on published implementation details. Pult Workplace serves as the central desk and room booking system with integrations into Slack, Teams, Google and Outlook. Presence AI and visitor management are separate implementation tracks that may need to be planned per location and network.

The following questions are useful organisational review points: Who is responsible for the network setup for Wi-Fi based tracking? How many locations will be rolled out at the same time? How will employees be trained on three product lines? And how much lead time does IT need to integrate all lines?

Support, operation and further development

More than 100 companies rely on Seatti. Support is included in all plans, as are configuration, floor plans and training, so you start without implementation costs. The role and permission system for admins and location managers is part of ongoing operation. According to the vendor, Pult names a personal customer success manager in the Business plan and extended SLAs in the Enterprise plan.

Four points are relevant for your support comparison: response times and availability in the event of incidents, German speaking support and fixed contacts, how change requests and feature requests are handled, and availability with high user numbers and many locations.

“What fits when?” Seatti vs Pult in context

Different conditions lead to different results. This section sets typical scenarios side by side without judging them. Office occupancy must be matched to actual demand.

Typical scenarios for Seatti

Seatti is typically used in companies with 250 or more employees and several locations and companies that are introducing desk sharing and want to keep all locations in view centrally. This includes IT driven projects with Microsoft 365 as the lead platform, integration via Microsoft Entra Sync and a need for open API and multi-tenant administration. Another typical trigger is when real estate or finance needs reliable usage data for lease renewals, space reduction or relocations rather than just booking figures, or when the works council requires pseudonymised, aggregated attendance data without geolocation and without working time recording.

Two customer projects show what this can mean: at IKB, 34% of office costs were saved through better use of space, and bonprix increased occupancy per desk by 66% with more than 54,000 planned office days in 12 months. (See more customer stories)

Typical scenarios for Pult

Pult comes into consideration when companies want to connect desk, room and parking booking with Slack, Teams or Google, or when they want to record attendance separately via Presence AI and use flat rate plans for it. Locations with clearly defined visitor traffic may also find dedicated visitor management per location (from €99 per month) worthwhile, since effective visitor management improves office organisation. Teams that prioritise real time analytics for monitoring occupancy in day to day business and want to support flexible working models with different tools are another target group.

Three guiding questions for your decision

How central is Microsoft 365? If Microsoft Teams, Outlook and Microsoft Entra ID are your primary working environment and identity source, native integration reduces the effort considerably.

Integrated system or separate products? Do you need an all in one system of workspace management and usage analysis, or do you deliberately separate booking, presence and visitor management into several products?

Strategic space decisions or short term needs? What role will space decisions and savings potential play over the next 3 to 5 years? And how many days a week are your employees actually in the office?

‍

‍

Conclusion and next steps

Seatti fits if you want to run Workspace Management and Office Intelligence in one system, work natively in Microsoft 365 and need reliable usage data for space decisions. The combination of operational booking and strategic data analysis is the core of Seatti.

Pult is an alternative with separate product lines for workplace booking, Presence AI and visitor management that can particularly suit companies with multi tool landscapes (Slack, Google, Microsoft).

The decision does not depend on which product is “better”, but on which one fits your organisation, your IT landscape and your data needs.
