Yes. We have 200+ places in our library. We suggest selecting a place that most closely matches your room layout first then using our customize feature to move, add or delete seats.

We accept CSV, GIF, JPG, PNG file formats. CSV, is the format used for importing spreadsheet data. The GIF, JPG and PNG file types are going to be types associated with pictures.

No, but…. we do accept CSV file format. Fortunately, converting an Excel file to CSV is really straightforward. Just follow these steps:

1. In your Excel workbook, click the “File” tab, and then click “Save As”.
2. In the “Save as Type” box, choose to save your Excel file as “CSV (Comma delimited)”.
3. Choose the destination folder where you want to save your Excel file in the CSV format, and then click “Save”. After clicking “Save”, Excel may prompt with two dialogs.
4. The first dialog reminds you that only the active Excel spreadsheet will be saved to the CSV file format. If this is what you are looking for, click “Ok”.
   If you want to save all the contents of all the sheets your workbook contains, click “Cancel” and then save each spreadsheet individually as a separate Excel file. Save each Excel file as a separate CSV.
5. Clicking “Ok” in the first dialog will prompt a second message notifying you that your worksheet may contain features unsupported by the CSV encoding. This is okay, so simply click “Yes”.

If you have any special characters in your excel file like (tildes, accent etc.), then you may need to save your excel file to TXT first, then CSV. A quick Google search should be able to provide you with some guidance on the subject.

Yes. Many of our users are in education and part of institutions that want to streamline the importing of pictures, courses and enrollment date for their faculty and assistants. However, you may have a situation where you just need to pick a place and add some people to it. We support that process.
