Virtual office vs. fixed office space

 

Benefits at a glance

Office space	Virtual Office
By renting your own office space you often rent a space or building per m2. Choose how much you need.	With a virtual office, you often do not have your own office space but make use of the shared space(s). If you need your own space, such as a meeting room or consulting room, you can often rent it separately, for an additional fee.
If you have your own office space, you can create your own unique professional image with your company logos and your own furniture.	When renting a virtual office, you can often choose to have your own company logo at the reception desk on location, so that other companies know that you are working from the location.
You can decorate your own space the way you want it. Own desks, chairs and computers. Do you have enough room? Then consider things like a lunch table or lounge corner.	Rent turnkey meeting rooms and consulting rooms at your convenience. But don't pay for when you don't need it.
Meet with customers in your own office.	Upgrade easily with, for instance, a workstation on location if needed.
Hire staff or interns more easily.	Turnkey! You can often start with a virtual office right away.
Announce regionally that you are located with a permanent office.	Use your virtual office address online for marketing such as Google maps.
Use your office for online marketing on, for example, Google Business.	You have little (financial) risk when opting for a virtual office.
Easily estimate the fixed costs per year through the fixed lease.	No extra costs such as cleaning, security and insurance.
