Stay in full control
Track your content's progress, platforms, publishing date, tasks and approval status — all in one place.
Flexible options for filtering and sorting help you stay in complete control of multiple platforms, even as they become more complex.

SHORT-TERM AND LONG-TERM PLANNING
Optimize your story mix
What is scheduled for this week or this afternoon? What topics are ready and how will they be prepared?
Different views allow you to plan for the next few days, the next issues or in the long term.
Drag and drop your stories between days, issues or sections to ensure an ideal content mix.
Custom Fields

Planning with different target audiences, topics or languages in mind? Need to add a field for specific data?
Simply create what you need and save your own custom views to reuse!
Desk-Net offers your team the adaptability and flexibility they need.
Desk-Net has allowed us to contain all our information in one place, making us much more efficient.
“Desk-Net enabled us to create a single source of truth for all the stories we're planning to publish, whether it's today, this week, next week or beyond.”

Topics
Don't just plan content, plan the right content
Planning topics is easy but how to make sure that they make sense for your audience? And are they published in sufficient numbers at a good pace?
With the Topics feature, you bundle content into strands and keep the overview.
This means you’ll always know if you’re generating enough content related to different topics.
TASK ASSIGNMENT
Assign tasks to internal and external staff
Desk-Net is more than just a content calendar.
Assign tasks to writers, photographers, etc. and track their completion — either on the Story Lists or on a dedicated task page.
Users seamlessly receive all the information they need to complete their assignment, sync it with their phone's calendar and deliver their content to your CMS via Desk-Net.
Integrations
Seamless workflow across systems
Desk-Net integrates with standard tools like WordPress, Drupal and Zapier as well as with the specialized tools used by the news industry and publishers.
There are integrations with tools such as CUE, WoodWing, Aptoma, K4 or Livingdocs to name just a few.
Reviews
How our customers rate us
Companies of all sizes love the Desk-Net newsroom management software
Desk-Net has allowed us to contain all our information in one place, making us much more efficient. It’s enabled us to create a single source of truth for all the stories we’re planning to publish, whether it's today, this week, next week or beyond.
Desk-Net is simple enough to encourage daily use by the whole team and at the same time leaves us enough space to customize it according to our particular requirements.
Desk-Net is the one essential tool that keeps it all together. It helps us schedule daily tasks in an online and print workflow and it really helps us to keep up to date on tasks from different team members.
With Desk-Net we have an overview of all our channels on a planning platform and can also access the planning of channels in other departments such as marketing communications.
Desk-Net had all the attributes that we were looking for: simplicity and ease of use.
Desk-Net creates transparency. Everyone can see the status of a story. We keep track of how the program looks for the day, for the weekend, and for the coming week. This makes our work more efficient.
We have been using Desk-Net in corporate communications for more than half a year now and can recommend the tool to anyone looking for a simple solution for planning editorial content. The user interface is intuitive to use and the tool offers a wide range of functions that make our editorial work much easier. Within a short time, we were able to optimise our editorial processes and manage our content more effectively.
Desk-Net has been instrumental in helping us make the online and print editorial teams work more closely together.
The thinking was to allow us to use a single software application to do the work we are otherwise doing with a mix of tools and with good old-fashioned paper. Desk-Net also serves as a complete menu and allows us to see instantly what any journalist is working on.
