Serviced Office vs Conventional Office

PUBLISHED ON:June 29, 2020PUBLISHED IN:Articles


Serviced office has become a popular choice for business owners mainly because it offers significant advantages compared to conventional office. Today, serviced office industry has flourished especially in many big cities in the world, including Jakarta. Below are some of the advantages of serviced office when compared to conventional office.
Ready to Use
Serviced office is fully furnished and fully equipped so all you need to do is to plug in your gadgets and start working. Compared to conventional office that has to be furnished and equipped first, serviced office is an instant office that needs little or no planning.
All-in Facilities
Serviced office comes with all-in facilities such as meeting room, lounge and pantry. Whether you lease the smallest serviced office (for one person) or the largest (for twenty or more persons) you are entitled to use these facilities. A conventional office will have to set up these facilities.
Flexible Terms
Though serviced office clients usually stay for many years, serviced office contracts typically run for 6 to 12 months whereas conventional office typically requires a minimum of 3 years lease. Serviced office clients can scale up and down their office much quicker whereas conventional office clients take longer to adjust.
Professional Services
Serviced office comes with reception and secretarial services that will handle your day-to-day incoming calls, mails and documents. You do not need to hire full staff as in the case of conventional office.
Up To Date Technology
Serviced office typically has high-speed internet connection that enables tenants to be connected to the whole world whether they are inside their serviced office or in the common areas. In the case of conventional office, you have to pay additional cost to get your private connection but with serviced office this has been included in the monthly rent.
Networking Opportunity
Unlike conventional office, serviced office clients are sharing common facilities and areas with other tenants, hence allowing them to interact with other entrepreneurs and executives. This opens up opportunities to share ideas or simply to connect socially with other business people with various backgrounds.
Capital Saving
Serviced office is ready to use so there is no set up costs, which is a significant saving. Conventional office will take time and money to furnish and equip.
Overheads Saving
Serviced office rent typically include professional, utilities, IT, maintenance and cleaning services, which can be a significant saving that you will not be able to get in conventional office.
Conclusion
Thanks to the advancement of technology, an employee who is working mobile can be just as productive as his/her counterpart that works at the office from 9 to 5. For this reason, there will be less need for a fully staffed and fully equipped conventional office with high set up costs and monthly overheads. Serviced office is a much more practical, flexible and cost efficient solution.
