Joan alternatives: when BellKeep fits and when it does not

Joan is a workplace platform known for its e-paper meeting-room displays, with room, desk and visitor software.

What Joan does

Joan sells room booking, desk booking, visitor management, parking and asset reservation and digital signage software, plus its own e-paper displays; it also works with third-party screens.

Usage-based. Joan's pricing page lists a base subscription from EUR 49 per month plus EUR 0.99 per additional user and EUR 9.99 per additional device per month, with a 30-day trial. Hardware is optional and sold separately.

Where Joan is strong

  • Purpose-built, low-power e-paper room displays
  • Hardware and software from one vendor

Stay with Joan if

  • You want battery-powered e-paper door signs supplied by the same vendor
  • You prefer buying displays and software as one package

Choose BellKeep instead if

  • You already have tablets or TVs and want to run displays in their browser
  • You want a drag-and-drop builder for lobby boards, occupancy walls and wayfinding screens
  • You want flat per-company pricing instead of per-user and per-device fees

Other alternatives
