Serviced v Managed Offices – Which One’s Right for You?
Choosing the right workspace for your business can feel like a big decision. Whether you’re just starting out or looking for a new space to support your growing team, it’s important to find an office setup that works for you. At Hubflow, we specialize in creating spaces that make businesses thrive, offering both serviced and managed offices. But what’s the difference, and which one suits your needs best? Let’s break it down.
What Exactly Is a Serviced Office?
Serviced offices are designed to be hassle-free. These are fully furnished, ready-to-go workspaces that take care of all the little things so you can focus on running your business.
What makes them great?
- Flexible Leases: Perfect if you’re not ready to commit long-term or if you’re unsure what the future holds.
- One Monthly Cost: Everything from cleaning to Wi-Fi is bundled into a single bill, meaning no surprises.
- Prime Locations: Many serviced offices, including ours, are in iconic business areas across Central London.
- Move-In Ready: There is no downtime. Just show up, grab a coffee, and start focusing on success.
Whether you’re launching a startup, opening a satellite office, or need a place to land between meetings, serviced offices are all about simplicity and convenience.
Well.. what about Managed Offices?
Managed offices are a step up when it comes to customisation. Think of them as a blank canvas where you can design the workspace you’ve always wanted.
Why businesses love them:
- Tailored Spaces: The layout, décor, and branding can all reflect your business’s personality and needs.
- Scalable: Whether you’re hiring more people or planning for growth, offices such as these will adapt to you.
- Private and Exclusive: No shared spaces (like coworking for example). Your team gets its own dedicated area.
- Longer-Term Vision: Managed offices are perfect if you’re in it for the long haul and are looking to build.
These are a great fit for established companies or teams with specific requirements, like breakout rooms, quiet zones, or collaborative areas.
Which Option Is Best for You?
- Go for a serviced office if you need something quick, easy, and adaptable. It’s an excellent choice for startups, remote teams, or businesses dipping their toes into a new market. (Lower desk requirements).
- Pick a managed office if you’re ready to create a workspace that’s truly your own. It’s ideal for teams that want a long-term base to grow into, or for businesses that value a more tailored setup (Slightly higher desk requirements).
At Hubflow, we make it easy to find the right space for your needs. Whether that’s the flexibility of a serviced office or the bespoke design of a managed one, we’ll help you find something that fits like a glove.
