Easy and Convenient- Managed Offices Concept of office space has changed dramatically over the last decade. Though these concepts had been there for quite a long time, but in recent past they have become a rage as Indian economy has boomed giving rise in demand for office space. Like service offices or Business centres, managed offices also fall in this same category and like them; later kind of offices are also enjoying the same popularity and designed to provide customized service to the tenants. Managed offices are same as serviced offices except for some basic differences. - You get a vacant office space as managed one with only basic amenities like cubicles, provisions for cable and internet connection, installed lights etc. Unlike serviced offices, you don’t get a furnished set up. - You will be responsible for your canteen, beverages, telephone lines, clerical support team etc. - The cost of security and parking space is to be borne by tenant which is not included in the rent. After going through the points, you must be wondering that serviced offices are more convenient to work at then why would anyone choose managed offices over them. There are reasons to choose the later. First of all, since nothing is included in the rent except for the space, naturally your rent will be remarkably lower. You will pay only as per your requirement. If your office can do without curtains, plush furnishing, video conferencing room, meeting rooms or multiple telephone and FAX lines, then why should you pay for them. At the
same time, there are people who find it difficult to settle down with other’s taste. They find it easy to design and decide the office décor as per their taste. Like serviced offices, Managed offices are also leased on short terms. This gives you flexibility to move out don’t feel like continuing in the office.

The new entrepreneurs can save in the foremost step which helps them use this amount in more productive way. And then they can furnish and design the office in simple, minimal yet elegant way. Aim is to work seamlessly and impress the clients with elegance, no non sense type décor office because the final word is spoken by your work and work alone. No client will be impressed with you if you fail to deliver what you promised no matter how posh your office is.
