A good hotdesking platform

4.0 9 months ago

Pros:

Multitude of different locations, different types or workspace, and different price levels all over London.

Cons:

I have had it a few times where Othership has said somewhere has availability but after booking I have had an email from Othership saying there are actually no desk spaces left and I need to choose somewhere else.

Othership Offers You Working Focus in a Friendly Engaging Space

3.0 2 years ago

Comments: I am taking part in the working meetups that Othership promotes and also finding different hotspots where I can work outside of my local comfort zone

Pros:

Othership offered me access to remote working spaces locally and to be able to reach out to others in the space. It's a walk in the park compared to the cold commute!

Cons:

Othership has offered me a freelance engagement that can be flexible and work for me now that I am elf-employed

Othership provides startups with excellent and cost-effective support

5.0 last year

Comments: I've been using Othership for just over a couple of years now and really value their service and very responsive customer service whenever I've needed it.

Pros:

Very helpful and informative Slack community and online platform for booking hotdesks and meeting rooms for early stage startups.

Cons:

Nothing I really dislike, but more afternoon networking events would be great for m3.

Alternatives Considered: Spaces Booking

Reasons for Switching to Othership: Far more cost-effective for a very early stage startup.

Amazing community for remote working professionals

5.0 last year

Comments: Found amazing friends and experiences through this platform, wouldn't have been possible without it!

Pros:

The ability to checkin/ login to co-working spaces and see if other colleagues will be working in the same area, gives a sense of community and belonging to "the other way of working ".Not to mention the incredible Slack Channel which adds to the sense of community and people can ask for help or provide help and the like, a great asset supporting other start-ups and Founders.

Cons:

A scheduler which I believe would be helpful to plan in advance your working week. This would help plan your call working week and find people or groups that you could co-working in advance.

Othership, from virtual to Real life in one app!

5.0 last year

Comments: Its a great community and the founders do a really good job curating it. Add in the ability to plan your desk, location and facilities in advance and its great for small distributed companies.

Pros:

I like the ability to be able to plan where i am going to be and to know with certainty you have a desk/room when you want it.

Cons:

No real downsides I can find, room availability outside major conurbations is not so great but thats probably because there arent facilities there.

Othership Response

last year

Hi Kevin, Thanks so much for the lovely review. I think you will like the new workplace scheduler alot too. You sill see where is busy near you you even if we don't have an official space there to work from. This should really help find others and spaces when not in the more major cities. All the best, speak soon, Ben

The community adds a lot of value in finding what you need based on your needs. The recommendations are just perfect and the added benefits that come along with them add more value. I was in Lisbon when I used it and it was fun.

Great availability and easy to use

5.0 2 years ago

Pros:

The best part of the Othership is the detailed descriptions of the spaces, allowing to make the right selection for every need, from focus work to taking calls.

Cons:

The only feature I would add is an indicator of wifi quality and background music to help decide the suitability for work.
