We're happy to share some updates that have rolled out over the past few weeks. These improvements are part of our ongoing commitment to making Seatsurfing a great workplace management solution for teams of all sizes.
Effective October 15, 2025, we will be discontinuing support for the app “Seatsurfing for Confluence” in Confluence Server and Confluence Data Center environments.
We're happy to announce the availability of Seatsurfing version 1.36. This release adds recurring bookings. Users can now book their favorite spots weekly or monthly with just one click. Whether you prefer the same desk every Tuesday or need your usual spot for the entire next week, you can now set it once and let Seatsurfing handle the rest.
We're excited to announce that Seatsurfing is now available as a Microsoft Teams app in the Microsoft AppSource marketplace! This integration brings workspace booking directly into the Microsoft Teams environment your team already knows and loves.
Today we've released Seatsurfing version 1.34. The new version improves the way users can navigate floor plans, introduces the specification of subjects when placing bookings, and adds technical Service Accounts.
We're happy to announce the availability of Seatsurfing version 1.32. Everything in this new version is about groups: You can now organize your users in groups. These groups can be used as approvers for your spaces, i.e. a space admin in a space's approver group must approve a user's booking request before it becomes definite. Furthermore, you can use groups to restrict users who can book specific spaces, i.e. only users in an allowed group are permitted to place a booking.
We're happy to announce the availability of Seatsurfing version 1.31. The new version lets users import their bookings into their calendar applications (such as Microsoft Outlook, Apple Calendar, Google Mail etc.) using the Booking Web Interface. Additionally, users can opt for receiving booking confirmations via email, and these emails also include an attachment which can be imported to calendars in no time. By the way, we're now sending emails in HTML formatting, providing a greater user experience.
Many of you, our users, asked us for. Today, we are excited to finally announce the launch and immediate availability of our cloud-hosted Professional plan 🤩
The Professional plan includes all features known from the Open Source Edition of Seatsurfing, plus:
The past weeks ran fast: We've released eight new versions (plus multiple fix versions) of Seatsurfing, each containing exciting new features. Features which our users asked for. As we've not blogged about versions 1.22 to 1.28, this blog post summarized the most remarkable features and improvements since the release of version 1.21 which was released by the end of 2024.
Time for some release news! Seatsurfing 1.21 has been released today, including several features that you, Seatsurfing's users, asked for. The biggest feature is that you can now specify custom attributes which can be attached to your locations. For example, as an administrator, you can specify whether a location is accessible with wheelchairs or what kind of media system is installed. Your users can view a location's attributes and even filter the list of locations according to their needs.
Enjoy the new features, I wish you a happy new year 2025!
