These accolades spotlight our unwavering commitment to excellence and the authentic satisfaction of our vibrant coworking community.

 

3. Interactive Floor Plans

In 2023, we seamlessly integrated Archilogic's advanced floor plan technology, bringing a transformative shift to coworking space efficiency. This collaboration offers operators a hassle-free way to visualize and manage desk and office availability. With a quick setup, real-time insights, and an interactive booking experience, this integration provides unparalleled convenience to shared space managers and users, all without additional fees on andcards side.

 

4. Sign-Up for Plans

Around 10 months ago we launched a groundbreaking 'Sign-Up for Plans' feature that revolutionized the coworking landscape. This innovative tool allows effortless online sign-ups for memberships, automating recurring subscriptions like hot desks and fixed desks. Not only does it save administrators valuable time, but it also maximizes convenience for members, fostering a seamless and efficient coworking experience.

 

5. Landing Page

Create a professional landing page for your business with our 2023 solution. Now, your custom domain visitors are greeted with a visually appealing landing page showcasing your coworking space, locations, and mobile apps. Users can effortlessly sign up and book rooms or desks with just a few taps, eliminating the need for a separate marketing website. Enjoy the benefits of this update, including beautiful design, simple sign-up processes, and effortless customization—all available on all plans at no extra cost.

 

6. Offices

Meet 'Offices' – a 2023 solution simplifying shared space management. This tool offers a hybrid office setup, letting operators optimize seat booking and gain insights into office occupancy. It's all about flexibility – offering on-demand booking options and allowing your coworking space to attract a broader audience. The feature also provides efficient tools for monitoring workspace usage and streamlining leasing processes, making you more effective and adaptable.

 

7. Mailroom Management

Another solution introduced in 2023 is a streamlined mailroom management. It lets you stay organized and keep members satisfied with push notifications for incoming mail. Effortlessly scan and attach images through your web and mobile apps, allowing customers to respond on how to handle their mail—whether to open and scan, forward, or discard. It's a user-friendly approach enhancing mailroom efficiency and customer satisfaction.

 

8. Xero and QuickBooks Online Integrations

In 2023, we built integrations with Xero and QuickBooks Online, revolutionizing accounting processes at coworking spaces. With seamless synchronization of financial records, you can effortlessly manage invoices, save time, and minimize errors. The Xero integration ensures meticulous review and uniformity in data, simplifying your revenue tracking and facilitating audits. Similarly, the QuickBooks Online integration streamlines your workflows, enhances revenue tracking, and ensures regulatory compliance, providing you with a hassle-free and efficient accounting solution tailored to the unique needs of your coworking space.

 

9. Nonmembers

The Nonmembers Page also launched in 2023 allows you to access valuable information on users and companies previously removed from the community. This means you can now view past customers' profile details, such as invoices, payments, bookings, notes, and credits. The real magic lies in the ability to effortlessly restore past members to the Community page with a single tap. This not only saves precious time but also provides you with the opportunity to download nonmembers' data for targeted outreach. By encouraging past customers to return, the Nonmembers Page becomes a strategic tool for community growth and customer reengagement.

 

10. Invoice Proration

Released in December 2023, one of our latest additions brings you invoice proration. Now, administrators can effortlessly set subscription renewals to the first day of the month, automating proration for streamlined payment tracking. This simplifies billing cycles, ensuring members receive accurately calculated invoices and all subsequent renewals align with the first day of the month. An insightful feature to enhance your coworking space management.
