The location
This is the most important and crucial criterion. It’s where you want to set up your company. While some companies prefer to be in the center of big cities, others prefer to be further afield. You can choose between a business district and a more cosmopolitan area, depending on your sector. Also, coworking spaces in central areas are usually the most expensive.
Services
Coworking spaces offer a variety of services depending on which companies they are trying to attract. This could include access to lessons in sports, massages, hairdressers, yoga, training, meetings with coworkers, or inspirational events. There are many services that you should look at to ensure that your space matches your corporate culture.
Meeting rooms
Most coworking spaces offer meeting rooms to coworkers. However, the process of booking or accessing these rooms may differ from one space. Some spaces restrict access to certain hours each week in order to make sure that everyone has access.
It is important to consider the number of meeting rooms that are available, especially for companies who need to meet with customers and partners frequently.
Types of offices
Coworking spaces are no longer synonymous with noisy open spaces. Many coworking spaces offer semi-private or private offices. Coworking spaces offer the option to decorate their offices in a way that best reflects the culture and state of mind of the company.
The price
In choosing a coworking space, the price is a key criterion. Each company has a different budget and this will impact the cost of office space. There are now more affordable options that can be adapted to all budgets.
