Cobot is a website for coworking space admins to automate billing and booking. It’s complicated and doesn’t offer much for your customers.
Spacebring is an easy-to-use suite of branded web, Android, and iOS apps. It makes your customers more self-reliant and independent, so you can get more time for scaling your business.
Cobot is a website. Although it’s got a flexible layout, Cobot doesn’t support push notifications and can’t be effectively used to engage customers.
Spacebring takes a modern approach with a full suite of apps:
Spacebring apps are a generation ahead for a number of reasons:
“We wanted our members to feel like they open up the app and it's like a candy shop. When members open their apps for the first time, a lot of them have the same reaction, which is “Oh, WOW, so modern, so endless, WOW.” They love it.” — Lindsay Hedenskog, CEO and COO of LAMB
Search for “Cobot” on App Store yields no results. In contrast, Spacebring maintains over 50 apps on App Store and as many on Google Play.
Cobot is barebones—it doesn’t have much to offer other than billing and booking.
Spacebring is a powerhouse. Of course, Spacebring has powerful auto-invoice and auto-pay features that get your invoices paid in under 8 seconds. But on top of that, Spacebring offers a full suite of tools empowering you to:
"Upgrading to Spacebring from Cobot felt like switching from a bicycle to a racing car — it's fast, powerful, intuitive and fully automated. Spacebring team surprises us with development speed, attention to detail, and customer-centric mind." — Ann Yoo, Head of Community & Sales at SPARKPLUS
Spacebring offers more value by packing room display, visitor management, external room booking, and hundreds of other features Cobot doesn’t have.
If you grow to multiple locations, Cobot requires a separate website for each location. That’s confusing and not user-friendly.
Spacebring offers full multi-location support built into a single app:
Spacebring’ multi-location support is powerful: each location can have its own currency, time zone, access control, and payment integrations. For users, however, everything is the same simple all around.
"A cross-location booking solution works very well. Thus, the real impact of the Spacebring platform on our business is far greater than the number of bookings alone would indicate. Spacebring was, and still is, a catalyst for CitySpace’s growth, and we are very happy with our choice." — Jakub Bawoł, Marketing Manager at CitySpace
Cobot’s admin dashboard and member portal are confusing and not well designed. Take it from Cobot’s own customer: “The lack of customization on the client view or member page, booking interface, and inability to create 1 off charge "plans" without the cost defaulting to $0 recurring when viewed on the member login page.... It's confusing.” — G2 review of Cobot
Spacebring is easy-to-use and intuitive. For example, over 95% of users book meeting rooms by themselves without requiring any assistance, which is a testament to user-friendliness.
“We failed to save time as operating Cobot was confusing, and we had to help members with routines that were supposed to be automated. Spacebring’ simple user interface and intuitive design really make a difference. The app is easy to use both for members and admin staff.” — Justin Lee, General Manager at Path Cowork
Cobot’s booking system (left) is so confusing that spaces write guidelines on how to book rooms (source: Medium). In contrast, Spacebring’ booking system is intuitive with over 95% bookings made by members themselves.
