Admittee vs SchoolSpace: scheduling, plus what happens in the room.
Web-based facility scheduling and community rentals for districts, powered by Venyooz. The same rental program, on the calendar that already holds the games and programs using those rooms.
Where SchoolSpace shines
- A branded facility website on your own domain, hosted by them
- A listing per space with photos, capacity, amenities, and pricing
- Requests, approvals, payments, and task or service coordination
- Used by large districts including Long Beach, Tucson, and Canyons
- No ticketing, no registrations, no concessions
Where Admittee shines
- Rentals with agreements, COI upload, invoicing, deposits, and ACH
- The same calendar carries practices, games, and ticketed events
- Registrations, concessions, and the gate are in the same system
- $0 platform fee; a transaction fee only when you collect a payment
Where SchoolSpace is the better answer
SchoolSpace is built for a district facilities office, and it shows in the part we do least: the public face of the rental program. Every space gets a real listing with photographs, capacity, amenities and published pricing, on a site at your own domain. If your goal is to advertise the facilities themselves to the community, that is a more finished answer than ours.
It is also proven at district scale. Long Beach and Tucson are not small, and a facilities office running hundreds of spaces across dozens of sites has different problems from a single campus.
Admittee is the better answer when the rental program is one of several things competing for the same rooms. A district that only rents out space is well served by rental software. A school where the gym is a practice on Tuesday, a home game on Friday, and a youth league on Saturday is not — those three live in different systems and the conflict shows up as a double-booking nobody catches until someone arrives.

How schools switch
The calendar moves first. Existing renters carry on until their booking season turns.
**Who switches.** Campuses where the same rooms host practices, performances and ticketed events, not only community bookings.
Common questions
We only rent facilities out. Do we need anything else?
Probably not. If the rental program is the whole job and nobody in the building is selling tickets or taking registrations, SchoolSpace does that job and does the public listings better than we do today.
What actually breaks when rentals live in their own system?
The conflict you care about is rarely renter against renter — it is a renter against a home game or a rehearsal that was scheduled somewhere else. A rental system cannot see those, so the double-booking is found by a person, usually on the day.
Can we move mid-year?
Most schools start by putting the internal calendar in Admittee, which changes nothing for existing renters, and move the rental program at a natural break in the booking season.
