Hello Lisa, Brian from Cobot here. We are the other primary alternative to Nexudus.
And actually, exactly what you asked "simpler space management software" is part of our core philosophy of Cobot, and one of the primary differentiators between Nexudus and Cobot. I don't think that makes us more robust. We have been doing this for 7 years now and have at least 50,000 members logging into Cobot per month - the platform can handle a lot. But we put a distinct emphasis on quality over quantity. After all - the second point of our Cobot Manifesto <http://blog.cobot.me/post/133124824427/the-cobot-manifesto> (based on the Coworking Manfiesto <http://coworkingmanifesto.com/>) is * Excellence over Versatility* That is where we put a lot of our energy - simplifying and streamlining the process of running your space so that you almost can't help but do it correctly. And you will find the quality of the experience in Cobot to be top notch, field tested by spaces around the world. We also just updated our backend to be Mobile-Ready <http://blog.cobot.me/post/143845867022/new-cobot-admin-design> and we are updating the user experience to simplify it further as we speak (spring cleaning to have a single UI after 7 years of building out the application) If you want to give it a shot, you can have a free 30 day trial: https://www.cobot.me/space_users/new_space We are there with our support team (who also all help run spaces as our second job <http://co-up.de/>) to help you with all the ins and outs of getting started on Cobot. All the best! Brian and the Cobot Team On Friday, June 10, 2016 at 8:11:02 PM UTC+2, Lisa Reiner wrote: > > Great feedback on the many pros, and some cons of Nexudus.
