Offices don&#8217;t operate on a one-size-fits-all basis. Every business has its own unique preferences, requirements, and limitations, and needs a workplace that reflects all of these. 
Fortunately, the world of workspace has come a long way, and office providers now understand the importance of putting their users&#8217; needs first. From <a href="https://hubblehq.com/guides/serviced-offices">serviced</a>, to <a href="https://hubblehq.com/guides/managed-offices">managed</a>, to <a href="https://hubblehq.com/guides/leased-offices">leased</a> offices, there are many options now available to companies, ensuring that teams are in the right environment, on the right terms. But what is the difference between the various types? And how do you know which is right for your business?
At HubbleHQ, we want to make your office move as simple as possible, so we&#8217;ve put together this easy-to-follow flowchart that cuts out the jargon and helps you understand <a href="https://search.hubblehq.com/rent-guides/?utm_source=blog&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_campaign=guides" target="_blank" rel="noopener">which office type is right for your business</a>. Then, once you&#8217;ve established which that is, we can help you find it – for free.

<h1>Serviced office</h1>
The main benefits of <a href="https://hubblehq.com/serviced-offices" target="_blank" rel="noopener">serviced offices</a> are their flexibility and ease. Monthly rolling contracts allow startups and scaleups to avoid committing to long contracts, enabling them to grow organically without the pressure of traditionally rigid terms that tie them down. As such, teams need only acquire desks when they need them – avoiding unnecessary extra outgoings.
Be aware that by choosing a serviced office provider, you&#8217;re less likely to be able to make the office &#8220;your own&#8221;, and may be limited in the extent to which you can brand the space. However, many companies deem this an added advantage: increasingly, serviced offices offer a multitude of facilities, from childcare to free booze, meaning you can have a cool office that attracts the best talent and keeps your team happy – without any of the hassle.
<a id="section2"></a>Compare and contrast London&#8217;s serviced offices by <a href="https://hubblehq.com/office-space-london" target="_blank" rel="noopener">searching our platform</a> – you can filter by location, budget, and facilities at your leisure.
<h1>Managed office</h1>
If you’re looking for a space that you can make your own, then a <a href="https://hubblehq.com/blog/what-are-managed-offices" target="_blank" rel="noopener">managed office</a> may be your best bet. Contracts on managed offices typically last between 1-3 years, making them a good midway point between using a serviced office and committing to a long-term lease. 
One of the main benefits of managed offices is that they are made bespoke to a company’s requirements, meaning that instead of submitting to the branding of a workspace provider, you can enjoy an office that&#8217;s tailored to you. Another is that all costs, from rent to fitout, will be bundled into one single, monthly fee. Over time, this benefit may cost a little more, but if a regular cash flow and hassle-free office life are what you&#8217;re looking for, then a managed office could be your answer.

<h1>Leased office</h1>
Established businesses often prefer long-term contracts – especially as in certain cases, they can prove to be more economical. When this is the case, a leased office could be the best option. Contracts generally last 3+ years, so you&#8217;ll need to be willing to commit to that office for a longer period of time – however, many larger and more established businesses prefer this element of security and stability.
Up-front costs are much more significant when it comes to leased offices – something to bear in mind – however, if that&#8217;s something that a business can afford then over the course of the contract, it will often actually end up costing less. The office will also be yours to do with what you wish – your name is on the door.
At HubbleHQ we can help you find a leased space, as well as give you access to off-market options. Find out more about leasing your own office space <a href="https://hubblehq.com/recommendations">here</a>:

When you think of ‘conventional’ office space, you’re probably thinking of either serviced office space or a leased office. There are some pretty big differences and it’s important to know which kind of space is best for you. So without further ado, here are the three main things to bear in mind when choosing between a serviced office or a leased space.
<h2 class="p4">Control vs Ease of use</h2>
Setting up shop in a serviced office is simple. The wi-fi is already set up for you, there are meeting rooms available on demand and the office already has desks, chairs and storage space. Essentially, someone else has done all the hard work of turning an empty room into a usable office.
<img loading="lazy" data-attachment-id="15712" data-permalink="https://hubblehq.wordpress.com/2020/03/18/360-office-tours/worklife-hamm/" data-orig-file="https://hubblehq.files.wordpress.com/2019/12/worklife-hamm.png" data-orig-size="900,600" data-comments-opened="1" data-image-meta="{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}" data-image-title="WorKlife Hamm" data-image-description="" data-image-caption="" data-medium-file="https://hubblehq.files.wordpress.com/2019/12/worklife-hamm.png?w=300" data-large-file="https://hubblehq.files.wordpress.com/2019/12/worklife-hamm.png?w=900" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-15712" src="https://hubblehq.files.wordpress.com/2019/12/worklife-hamm.png" alt="WorKlife Hamm" width="900" height="600" srcset="https://hubblehq.files.wordpress.com/2019/12/worklife-hamm.png 900w, https://hubblehq.files.wordpress.com/2019/12/worklife-hamm.png?w=150&amp;h=100 150w, https://hubblehq.files.wordpress.com/2019/12/worklife-hamm.png?w=300&amp;h=200 300w, https://hubblehq.files.wordpress.com/2019/12/worklife-hamm.png?w=768&amp;h=512 768w" sizes="(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px" />
That’s no use, though, if you absolutely must have custom-made sit-stand desks, ultra-fast broadband for your company’s servers or your own custom meeting-booking system with iPads on the doors. Serviced offices have to appeal to pretty much everyone so they have to be generic to a certain degree. You can often negotiate to replace their desks with yours, say, or to repaint a wall in your favourite shade of purple, but they are not set up to give you the full freedom of a leased space where you can choose to set it up exactly how you want.
A leased space, on the other hand, is much harder to set up. You’ll have to source your own furniture from desks and chairs to kitchens and coffee-makers and set up your own internet but in exchange you and only you get the final say in what your space looks like and how it’s laid out!
<h2 class="p4">Time vs Money</h2>
Serviced offices save you time, but the tradeoff is that they can be more expensive. You can often move into a serviced offices within days of making a decision!
A leased space, on the other hand takes longer to find, fit out and move in to &#8211; and even the paperwork takes significantly longer.
The general perception is that serviced offices are more expensive, and in general that’s true. on a per-month and per-desk basis you’ll pay more, since they do so much more for you. All those services aren’t cheap! But that’s not quite the full picture, and there’s two ways serviced offices might actually be cheaper: the cost of doing things yourself, and more flexibility.

Setting up a leased, unfurnished space can be more expensive than you think. Everything serviced offices do for you you’ll have to do yourself, which you might think would be cheaper but bear in mind that serviced offices buy these things on bulk so they’ll probably get a better deal than you can, and they’ll pass some of these savings on to you.
The other way serviced offices can save you money is that you’ll only pay for the space you actually need right now. Talking of which…
<h2 class="p4">Flexibility vs Commitment</h2>
A lease is measured in years but a stay in a serviced office can be measured in months and even weeks. A one-month notice period is common and it’s rarely longer than three months. This is a really key benefit of London serviced offices: you’ll never be stuck paying for an office you no longer need, which is not only more convenient but it also saves you money.
Of course, it’s not all upsides: the short notice period also means the host has the right to make you move at short notice, since you’re on a rolling contract, but that’s very unlikely in reality and would affect the serviced office’s reputation if they did that often.

In a leased space, on the other hand, you have commitment. You know the space is yours for the next five years so you can safely invest time and money into making the space exactly how you want it. The crazy offices you see in magazines by Google, Facebook and the like are only possible because they have long leases on their offices, but they can afford that because they know that they will still need that space in five years.
And really, that’s the crux of it: serviced offices are more flexible, easier and quicker but leased spaces let you really make the space your own.

It just comes down to what you value more.
