Ronspot Admin Panel Explained: A Practical Guide to Navigating the New Menu

Last year, we introduced a redesigned Ronspot admin panel alongside a major restructure of the admin menu. The goal was simple: make the admin experience cleaner, easier to navigate, and faster to use.

As part of the update, we reduced the number of main items in the left-hand menu from 18 down to 5, and changed the menu background from black to white to better match the rest of the interface. The result is a lighter, less bulky layout that helps administrators find what they need more quickly, thanks to clearer and more logical categorisation.

But some customers have remained on the previous menu, with the option to move to the new menu using a toggle in the top-left corner. While this flexibility has helped teams adapt at their own pace, it also creates an inconsistent experience for administrators and requires us to maintain two separate navigation systems.

To ensure a consistent and improved experience for everyone, all admin users will be transitioned to the new menu:

  • February 1st, 2026: All admin users will be moved to the new menu with the toggle remaining (transition period).
  • February 15th, 2026: the toggle will be removed permanently and the old menu will be fully discontinued.

This article walks you through the new menu structure and shows you exactly where to find all existing controls, so the transition is as smooth as possible.

Tab 1: Insights


The Insights tab is your go-to place for data-driven decision-making. We’ve brought all analytics and reporting pages together here, so everything you need to understand performance is in one spot.

Once an account is set up and running smoothly, we noticed most admins only log in to check how their workplace and bookings are performing. That’s why we’ve moved Insights to the first position in the menu and renamed its pages for clarity.

Dashboard → Live view

Dashboard has been renamed to Live View. This page shows bookings as they happen in real time, directly on your car park and office maps, so “Live View” better reflects what it does.

Charts → Dashboard

Charts is now Dashboard. We’ve reused the name “Dashboard” because this page matches what a dashboard typically is: high-level widgets that summarise key metrics and trends at a glance.

Analytics → Reports

Analytics is now Reports. This section was previously buried, but it’s one of the most important and most-used areas for customers, so we’ve moved it into Insights to make it easier to find. It includes around a dozen reports you can generate to analyse usage, bookings, and performance over time.

Tab 2: Bookings


The Bookings tab is your hub for everything related to reservations. We’ve brought the bookings lists here and added controls for scheduled bookings and booking closures so that you can manage all booking-related controls in one place.

Bookings → Space bookings

Bookings has been renamed to Space Bookings for clarity. This page shows a table of all desk and parking bookings in a list view, with search filters to help you narrow results.

Meetings → Room bookings

Meetings is now Room Bookings. Having “Meetings” and “Meeting Rooms” in the same menu was confusing, so we renamed this page to better reflect what it does. It’s the same list-style view as Space Bookings, but focused only on meeting room reservations.

Scheduler

Scheduler keeps the same name, only its position has changed. It’s a popular tool for companies that automatically book spaces for users without requiring them to make bookings themselves, so we moved it into Bookings where it’s easier to find.

Closing dates

This page lets administrators block bookings on weekends, public holidays, or any other dates. Previously, it was buried under Advanced Settings, and many customers weren’t aware it existed, so we’ve moved it into Bookings to make it easier to use.

Tab 3: Spaces


The Spaces tab is the place to set up and manage your resources. These pages were already grouped together in the previous menu, so we’ve kept them under the same tab in the same order, making them easy to find.

Zones and maps

Manage your different sites with their own timezone and map. Create as many as you need, configure 40+ settings per zone, and set up an interactive map for each location.

Parking spaces

Manage your parking spaces in a list view, with the ability to update each space’s individual booking configuration.

Desks

Similar to Parking Spaces, but for desks. View all desks in a list and adjust booking settings for each one.

Meeting rooms

Similar to the previous two sections, but for meeting rooms. View rooms in a list and configure booking rules for each individually.

Tab 4: Users


The Users tab is your central place for managing the people who use Ronspot. Previously spread across the old menu, these pages are now grouped together in one logical section.

Employees

First up is your employee list, where you can manage users and their permissions.

Administrators

Similar to Employees, but for admin users, you can add or remove administrators. Previously under Advanced Settings, it’s now easier to find here.

User authentication → Login methods

Previously under Advanced Settings, this page controls which login methods appear after an employee and/or administrator enters their email address.

Group settings

A major time-saver for larger organisations. Create groups and apply booking rules and permissions in bulk, instead of configuring each employee individually.

Team permissions

Previously under Advanced Settings, this page lets you assign employees to teams and give them extra permissions, like managing colleagues’ bookings or inviting visitors.

Emergency roles

Assign custom roles to employees so others can quickly locate the right people.

Tab 5: Account


The Account tab contains account-wide controls that are typically used less frequently. These pages were previously grouped under the old Advanced settings menu.

Company settings → Advanced settings

We’ve expanded this into a dedicated Advanced Settings page with tabs for Company, Employee, and Multi-zone settings.

Email templates

Customise the email templates sent to employees and administrators.

Notification templates

Customise the push notifications employees receive on their phones.

Admin alerts

Notify administrators by email when key actions occur.

Pre-booking questions

Create tick-box questions employees must accept before confirming a booking.

Post-booking questions

Create optional or required questions shown after a booking is made.

Integrations

Configure integrations such as access control, occupancy sensors, HR systems, user provisioning, etc. Visible only to customers with the add-on.

Conclusion


The new admin menu is designed to be simpler, cleaner, and more intuitive, helping administrators work more efficiently and confidently. By reducing visual clutter and grouping features logically, we’ve created an interface that scales better and is easier to maintain—while remaining familiar.

We encourage you to explore the new menu ahead of February 15th, 2026 and get comfortable with the updated layout. As always, our Help Centre and support team are here to assist if you have any questions during the transition.

We’re excited to bring all admins onto this improved experience and look forward to your feedback.
