Before we dive deeper into each platform, let’s take a look at how we came up with this list.

Methodology for choosing the best coworking software on this list

When it came to selecting the best coworking software for this list, our team looked at a number of different factors including:

  • Features and functionality: what features does the platform have? Are they robust enough to scale with you as your business grows?
  • User experience: what is it like to use the platform? Is it easy, intuitive, and reliable?
  • Customer reviews and reputation: what are people saying about the platform, the good, the bad, and the ugly?
  • Differentiation: does it offer something different and unique that no other platform offers?
  • Scalability and customization: is the platform flexible enough to do what you need for it to do? Can it scale with you as you grow?
  • Robust integrations: can it fit into your current tech stack and integrate with tools you already use?
  • Support and training resources: is there ample customer service and training resources available to support your business?

We ranked each platform on a scale of one to ten in the categories above to come up with a composite score for each. From here, we looked at the distinct pros and cons of each platform, from value to customization to customer support services to build a holistic view of each software. The list of pros and cons was built on information we’ve gathered from external review sites like G2 and Capterra, as well as online communities and forums.

Let’s take a look at each platform in detail. At the end of this article, we’ll give you some tips on how to choose the right platform for your business.

2. OfficeRnD

OfficeRnD coworking UI
OfficeRnD UI

Best for: enterprise coworking operators and hybrid workspaces looking for an integration-rich solution

OfficeRnD is a coworking and hybrid workspace management solution that offers a range of features to streamline the workspace and assist in general day-to-day operations management. Initially developed as a platform for coworking spaces, much of their roadmap and resources are now dedicated to growing their hybrid work solution, though it is always evolving.

OfficeRnD is one of the most well-known coworking platforms on the market. That’s why Deborah and Rachael, co-founders at Brooklyn Hourly Offices, initially chose OfficeRnD as their platform of choice. However, after getting frustrated with “a lot of clunkiness”, they decided to switch to Optix…and never looked back.

3. Nexudus

Rating: 8.6/10 ⭐

Nexudus coworking
Nexudus UI

Best for: large-scale coworking operations who need a feature-rich platform

Nexudus is a software platform designed for managing coworking spaces, shared offices, and flexible workspaces. As one of the first coworking software providers on the market, it boasts an extensive feature set. 

While beneficial for larger organizations, the platform can quickly become overwhelming for smaller spaces, often requiring external consultants to implement. It is best suited to enterprise organizations that can invest significant time, resources, and money into managing the technology. That’s what Caleb from KWENCH discovered. He described Nexudus as “pieced together” before making the switch to Optix.

  • Includes a wide array of features and integrations

❌ Cons:

  • Has a steep learning curve and can require external consultation
  • Requires having multiple apps and management systems in place to operate
  • Support channels are not easily accessible for North American clients
  • Limited customization options available for niche flex space businesses

Starts at $150/mo for up to 80 users

4. Archie

Rating: 8.3/10 ⭐

Archie coworking
Archie UI

Best for: first-time coworking operators, and hybrid workspaces looking for an employee management solution

Archie is one of the newer coworking and hybrid workspace software providers to enter the market in the last few years. While they do serve some coworking clients, their platform is primarily designed to support hybrid workplaces.

As such, it is best suited for small coworking spaces just starting out or hybrid workspaces looking to manage employee desk booking. They do offer a robust Visitor Management platform that can be helpful for coworking operators with lots of guests (PS. Optix offers this too!).

Five-star review of Archie praising its utility for managing inquiries and bookings, ease of use for admins and members, and broad feature set. Reviewer suggests improvement in meeting room seating specificity.

✅ Pros:

  • Sophisticated CRM and sales funnel features
  • Includes a native e-signature system and robust visitor management platform

❌ Cons:

  • Features that traditional offices need may not be relevant to coworking business models
  • CRM functions can be complex to use and navigate
  • Highly geared towards hybrid workspaces

Starts at $165/mo for 100 users

5. Spacebring

Rating: 7.5/10 ⭐

Spacebring coworking
Spacebring UI

Best for: European-based boutique coworking space operators

Spacebring (formerly andcards) is a newer coworking software platform offering a simple interface and small feature set for coworking and flex spaces. It serves countries across Europe and parts of Asia and Africa which sets it apart from others in the market.

Because its offering is less robust than some of its competitors and its customization options are limited, it is best suited for coworking operators just starting out who plan to remain a single-location space.

✅ Pros:

  • Easy to navigate interface
  • Desktop booking available for users
  • Multi-language support offered
  • Affordable

❌ Cons:

  • Lacking key features and functionality for growing businesses

6. Yardi Kube

Rating: 7.3/10 ⭐

Yardi Kube coworking
Yardi Kube UI

Best for: enterprise coworking spaces who are using the full suite of Yardi tools

Yardi Kube is a legacy coworking management platform used primarily by large enterprise clients. It is part of the Yardi ecosystem of property management tools, including Yardi Voyager, making it a popular choice for those already in the ecosystem.

For smaller spaces or those not using other Yardi tools, it is generally considered to be unnecessarily complex and expensive. However, for those looking to fulfill very specific needs that could be unusual for the average coworking space, it could be a good choice.

A testimonial card titled “Yardi Kube makes managing our workspace easy and efficient.” Beneath are four orange stars and one gray star, a “4.0” rating and “11 months ago.” Below, a green “Pros:” label followed by “Great for tracking space usage, billing, and service requests.” Then a red “Cons:” label with “Could use improvements in the user interface for easier navigation.”

✅ Pros:

  • Part of a comprehensive ecosystem of software solutions
  • Extensive feature set and all-in-one solution

❌ Cons:

  • Complex with a steep learning curve
  • Limited customization and flexibility
  • Lacks pricing transparency
  • Difficult to offboard

8. Proximity

Rating: 6.8/10 ⭐

Proximity coworking
Proximity UI

Best for: coworking spaces that lean more corporate than community and want an all-in-one software

Proximity is a coworking space management solution based in the United States. Along with the traditional coworking software features, it also offers a native access control system that is well-liked by its user base.

Since its launch nearly a decade ago, development on Proximity has slowed considerably, with many users reporting a lack of innovation coming from the product. This is one of the reasons from Geoff Wood, Founder at Gravitate Coworking, switched from Proximity to Optix as his coworking software of choice.

Five-star customer review for Proximity Space titled 'It does it all for our co working facility,' highlighting ease of setup and management of memberships, payments, access control, and room scheduling.

  • Offers a built-in sophisticated access control and Wi-Fi system
  • Offers an air-quality monitor and greeting management for guests

  • Roadmap is lacking new developments and improvements
  • User interface can be considered outdated
  • Limited branding and customization options available

9. Cobot

Rating: 6.1/10 ⭐

Cobot coworking
Cobot UI

Best for: European-based coworking spaces with one location and a traditional coworking space business model

Cobot is one of the original coworking software platforms to hit the market. Based in Germany, it is designed to help coworking space operators efficiently manage their spaces and automate various administrative tasks.

While Cobot does many of the basics well, it isn’t always suitable for those looking for an elevated user experience or a modern interface for their community. That’s why Elizabeth Fisher, co-founder at OneSpace, switched from Cobot to Optix.  As described by Elizabeth, “our old system was one dimensional. Optix reflects the uniqueness of our services and really allows us to do everything.”

Rating: 5.3/10 ⭐

Deskworks coworking
Deskworks UI

Best for: coworking spaces prioritizing easy check-ins in their space

Deskworks (formerly Satellite Deskworks) is workspace management software used to streamline coworking operations. Launched in 2012, it was initially developed to manage their own coworking spaces throughout California.

The platform has seen few updates over the years and is generally limited in its functionality, which is why it is ranked further down the list. Those who have been using it for years however, are generally happy with its performance.

✅ Pros:

  • Intelligent network check-in that automatically checks users in via Wi-Fi

❌ Cons:

Hamlet coworking
Hamlet UI

Best for: Australian-based coworking operators looking for a simple solution

Hamlet is a space management platform for Australian coworking and flexible workspaces. Hamlet is a newer tool on the market and is not commonly found in North America. For that reason there isn’t a lot of information out there around Hamlet and how it functions for US-based operators.

However, Hamlet is a comprehensive platform with generally positive reviews online.

✅ Pros:

  • Comprehensive management platform

12. Cowello

Rating: 5/10 ⭐

Cowello coworking
Cowello UI

Best for: US-based operators launching their first coworking space

Cowello is another new entrant in the coworking software market that is solely focused on streamlined operations. It’s designed to be lightweight and easy to adopt, which makes it appealing to smaller operators or those opening their first space.

Because it is so new, there is very little information about Cowello. It is also unclear as to whether or not it is actively being developed, which could be a concern for operators looking to make the investment.

Cowello coworking

✅ Pros:

  • Offers a free plan for up to 10 users
  • Supports multi-location management

❌ Cons:

  • Limited feature set and functionality

13. Deskie

Rating: 4.8/10 ⭐

Deskie coworking
Deskie UI

Best for: new coworking space operators on a tight budget

Deskie is perhaps the newest coworking software to hit the market in the last few years. Launched in spring 2024, it promises to be a simpler coworking software “built by coworking operators, for coworking operators”. While it’s pricing is affordable and its feature-set compelling, there are no reviews of Deskie making its claims hard to verify.

New software always come with a risk however. It can often be underbaked, glitchy, and lacking in advanced features. It’s a risk that operators will have to weigh against the cost-savings benefit.

✅ Pros:

  • Affordable for operators just starting out
  • Offers white-labeled website
  • Virtual mailbox feature included

❌ Cons:

  • Limited reviews and untested

Starts at $99/mo for 50 users

Coworkify UI

Best for: operators who want a minimalist platform with a front-end website baked in 

Coworkify is a coworking space management system from Kyoto, Japan designed with a “Zen” approach in mind and a minimalist look and feel.

This minimalism lends itself to a relatively basic feature set, the bare minimum for spaces just starting out. It is best suited for Japanese-based coworking spaces who value a locally-created business and who need a no frills system to manage their first space.

✅ Pros:

  • Cost effective for spaces just starting out
  • Offers a front-end website
  • Flexible pricing plans based on the size of your space

❌ Cons:

✅ Pros:

  • Affordable pricing 

❌ Cons:

  • Lacking features and functionality
  • Difficult to grow and scale with

How to choose the best coworking software for your business

You can read all of the lists you’d like and do research for days. At the end of the day, choosing the best coworking software for your business will come down to finding the right platform to fit your unique needs.

Here are some tips to keep in mind to help you navigate the intricacies of the coworking software selection process.

1. Determine what you care about the most

Start by identifying what it is you’re looking for in a software platform and the attributes that are most important to you. 

  • Do you care about a platform that is easy to use and intuitive? 
  • Do you value flexibility and customization? 
  • Do you want to automate as many manual tasks as possible?

It’s not about finding the tool with the most features and offerings, but rather about finding something that aligns with what you value most. Listing your values out in the beginning can help guide your software selection process.

2. Consider the reputation and reviews of the tool

Research the reputation and reviews of the software providers you’re evaluating. Look for feedback from other coworking space operators who have used the software. 

Online reviews, testimonials, and case studies can provide insights into the experiences of others and help you gauge the reliability and suitability of the software.

See why Optix ranks 4.8/5 stars on Capterra and the Apple App Store according to our clients and their members.

3. Complete trials and demos

Whenever possible, take advantage of free trials or demos offered by software providers. Testing the software firsthand will give you a better understanding of its features, usability, and compatibility with your specific needs.

A demo can also be a good opportunity to get a feel for the company you’re evaluating and determine whether or not you’d like to pursue a partnership with them.

“Often it’s hard to quantify the value of the software to your organization because so much of it can be intangible and you just can’t figure out what difference it’s going to make. However, once you try it, it is very easy to see how this is going to make it not only easier for prospects to buy from us, but also our customers will stay longer with us because what they care about doing has been made much easier.”
Gerald Vanderpuye, Co-founder at Impact Brixton

Getting started with coworking software

Choosing the right software for your business can make a significant impact on your operations and member experience.
