Steerpath alternative

Outgrowing Steerpath’s workplace focus? Crowd Connected delivers self-calibrating indoor positioning with complete wayfinding and analytics - compatible with your existing beacon infrastructure.

Location data from a wide area made accessible
Steerpath is a Finnish indoor positioning platform that pivoted toward workplace and hybrid work solutions. Their platform focuses on room and desk booking, 3D wayfinding, and occupancy analytics with integration into Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace. They provide sensor-based analytics for workplace management rather than traditional indoor positioning.
Steerpath's evolution

Understanding Steerpath's strategic shift

Steerpath has pivoted toward hybrid workplace management - room booking, desk allocation, occupancy analytics. That’s a legitimate market. However, if you need broader indoor positioning for navigation, visitor engagement, or analytics beyond workplace facilities, Steerpath isn’t built for that use case anymore.

Their original positioning technology is solid, but it’s now secondary to their workplace-management focus. If workplace features aren’t your primary need, you’re paying for features you don’t need.

Frequently asked questions

Can we really use our Steerpath floor plans and beacons?
Yes, completely. We import DXF floor plans and extract beacon positions automatically. Your existing Steerpath infrastructure works with Crowd Connected immediately. No reinstallation, no recalibration, no infrastructure costs.
Is Crowd Connected a workplace/hybrid work solution like Steerpath?
No, we’re a general-purpose indoor positioning and analytics platform. We support workplace use cases, but we’re equally suited for retail, hospitality, healthcare, events, and venues. If workplace features like room booking are your primary need, Steerpath’s specialisation might be valuable. If you need broader positioning, we’re a better fit.
What happens to room booking and desk allocation if we switch?
Those features exist in Steerpath because they pivot toward workplace. We don’t provide room booking natively, but we integrate with workplace management systems via APIs. You can keep your existing booking system and layer Crowd Connected positioning on top.
Does Crowd Connected integrate with Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace?
We don’t have native integrations like Steerpath does. However, we offer REST APIs and webhooks that let you build custom integrations. Many customers layer our positioning on top of their existing workplace management systems rather than replacing them.
How long does migration from Steerpath take?
Usually 1-2 weeks for typical deployments. We import your floor plans and beacon data, then validate accuracy against your existing Steerpath setup. Once confirmed, switch over. Because our system is self-calibrating, there’s no recalibration period like traditional platforms require.
Will switching cost us more?
Unlikely. Our free tier allows unlimited commercial use with unlimited devices. Most organisations pay less switching to Crowd Connected than staying with Steerpath’s enterprise pricing. Get a quote based on your specific deployment size.
