Choose Co-Desk if…
You're an independent coworking or coliving operator, running one to several locations. You want every web-based feature included from day one without navigating tier add-ons, fair pricing tied to your revenue, and native support for both coworking and coliving. You're fine with a mobile-responsive web portal instead of a native mobile app.
Choose OfficeRnD Flex if…
You run a large corporate workplace or multi-location enterprise coworking brand, need deep hybrid-office functionality and HR integrations, have dedicated IT and ops teams for enterprise procurement, and don't need coliving features.
Common questions
How does Co-Desk's pricing compare to OfficeRnD Flex?
OfficeRnD Flex uses a tiered model (START/GROW/SCALE) starting at €155/month for up to 100 members at 1 location, with custom quotes for larger operations. Most add-ons — Growth Hub (e-commerce), Branded Apps (native mobile + white-label), Visitor Hub — are paid separately, typically adding €200-400/month. Co-Desk charges €0/month plus 2.5% per Stripe transaction with every web-based feature included (we don't offer a native mobile app — members use a mobile-responsive web portal instead). For most independent operators, Co-Desk's total cost of ownership is lower, especially in year 1 when OfficeRnD Flex's onboarding fees are amortised.
Does OfficeRnD Flex support coliving?
No. OfficeRnD Flex Flex is built for coworking and hybrid office management. Lease management, rent collection workflows, and resident-specific features are not core to the product. Co-Desk supports both coworking and coliving natively in the same platform.
What is OfficeRnD Growth Hub?
Growth Hub is OfficeRnD Flex's e-commerce add-on — it lets prospects buy plans and book resources directly from your website. It's a paid module on top of the base subscription (quote-based; roughly €75+/location/month). Co-Desk includes equivalent public booking and checkout flows in the base platform.
Can I switch from OfficeRnD Flex to Co-Desk?
Yes. We can import members, plans, invoicing history, and Stripe-connected billing. Contact our sales team with a data export and we'll walk you through the migration — most operators are live within 30 minutes of completing the import.
Is OfficeRnD Flex better for enterprise?
OfficeRnD Flex has deeper enterprise workplace features (hybrid office, desk booking for corporate tenants, HR integrations). If you're running a large corporate workplace program, OfficeRnD Flex may fit better. For independent coworking or coliving operators, Co-Desk is simpler, cheaper at most scales, and supports both verticals.
