Yardi Kube: A single connected platform for flexible workspace management
Yardi Kube
Between January and April 2011, Deskmag analysed the results of the first Global Coworking Survey and published them in a series of twelve themed articles, which are listed here as a summary. Through our analysis we wanted to provide coworking spaces with helpful information to better understand and serve their members. While the survey results are a good general guide, remember that each coworking space is a unique community which can have its own special needs.
