Great Team, Great Product

Pros:

Easy to connect with other entrepreneurs, book spaces and communicate with my team

Cons:

There are a few UI/UX things that could be improved, but all minor.

First impressions of Othership

5.0 10 months ago

Comments: Really positive. Seems much better use of company funds only having to pay for the times that we visit a coworking space. All the staff (both at othership and the coworking spaces) have been really friendly and always happy to help.

Pros:

Quick and easy to make a booking. The website is user friendly, allowing me to quickly and easily search within a location for available offices / desks. The support available is great. When I have encountered an issue, the ability to use webchat to speak to a colleague has been brilliant. The team are quick and efficient in resolving any and all issues I have had. Email notifications work well. Keeping me informed of upcoming bookings and available budget left to spend without me needing to sign in to Othership each time.

Cons:

I prefer to work in coworking spaces over cafe's and hotels and there are still large areas of the UK that are missing these types of spaces. I tend to stick around the £20 p/day mark however in some areas the cost of a coworking space is double this with no additional benefits. Trial and error and communicating with colleagues has enabled me to find the best value for money coworking spaces. Better awareness of events / drinks / social 'things' that are occurring at different locations would be good. Giving a reason for getting out and visiting coworking spaces.

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

Remote work is less lonely

5.0 3 months ago

Pros:

I love that I can see where other community members are working for the day. It makes being an independent consultant less lonely when I know where I can co-work with friends!

Cons:

I wish all of my clients were in the software!

Great stuff…

5.0 10 months ago

Comments: Excellent, great, and other such adjectives.

Pros:

I started using Othership when it was still called ‘WeCoffee’ before the pandemic. As a freelancer, my work took me all over London and I had had enough of trying to work in noisy cafes. Since then, it has grown into a dynamic and friendly community making it easy to network on a professional and social basis. It gets lonely being a solopreneur, and Othership solved that problem for me. I can work in peace in a silent booth if I’m in town, or choose to co-work with others. Great freedom and flexibility.

Cons:

It’s still a little London Centric, but I’m impressive at how quickly and easily it has expanded to other cities and even towns in the UK (and Mexico…)

Othership is the tool i reccomend the most to all my clients

5.0 10 months ago

Comments: Seamless since I got introduced it and use more and more as my buisness and needs grow.

Cons:

No cons for me just continual improving as a tool.

The perfect digital nomad experience

5.0 5 months ago

Comments: It’s great and I would def recommend it to anyone that is fed up of working from home and wishes to enjoy the city while working

Pros:

How easy is to find different workspace and help me working as a digital nomad within the city. It inspire me the atmosphere a being able to find a community of others working there too. The free drinks are a big plus for a caffeine addict as I am.

Cons:

I wish more cafe, hotels and venues would work with the platform so there would be even more options to choose from.

Othership, from virtual to Real life in one app!

5.0 2 years ago

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.

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

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.
