What is elumo?

elumo is a dynamic booking and access control platform for meeting rooms in flexible workspaces, coworking spaces, and office buildings. It combines software with smart hardware to enable users to book, pay for, and unlock meeting rooms with a single tap using their mobile phone – in under one second. elumo is the only solution that integrates real-time booking and physical access control in a single experience.

How does elumo work?

elumo consists of hardware (Reader mounted at the door, Hub controlling the lock) and cloud-based software (booking and access platform and management dashboard).

What’s the difference between elumo and traditional meeting room access control systems?

Traditional access control systems can lock and unlock doors but can’t process bookings or payments in real-time. When access control is integrated with booking systems, there’s typically a sync delay – the booking happens in one system, then eventually updates the access control, preventing spontaneous on-demand usage. elumo unifies booking, payment, and access into a single real-time transaction.

Does elumo work with existing door locks?

Yes. elumo integrates with most commercial electronic door locks already installed, including electromagnetic locks, and electric strikes. If you’re starting from scratch, essensys can recommend compatible lock solutions. The system is designed to enhance your existing infrastructure rather than requiring complete door hardware replacement.

Can elumo integrate with my existing booking system?

Yes. elumo can operate as a standalone end-to-end solution (handling all booking, payment, and access) or integrate with your existing booking software to add real-time, at-the-door capability that traditional systems lack. The open API allows integration with leading workspace management platforms and tenant experience apps.
