February 2022 Cobot Updates

The shortest month of the year is almost behind us, but despite the shortage of days, we had no shortage of updates—we even managed to release one of our largest feature updates ever! Find out what that means for your workspace in our February update.

New External Bookings 💫

Do you ever have resources sitting empty when they could be doing so much more? We launched a feature designed to give you more options to offer your resources to non-members! This is a great way to capture more revenue from your existing setup while welcoming even more people into your space (and picking up leads along the way).

This major feature release is currently being rolled out to all our spaces, so don’t panic if you don’t see the option to switch yet!

The Dashboard shows revenue from External Bookings

Never miss essential information. Our Analytics tools now show revenue earned via External Bookings if the feature is enabled. There are two key places to track that can help you optimize your coworking space—under Analyze » Revenue and under Analyze » Bookings.

Did you know that you can click on any area of your analytics under Revenue and see a table of the items that are being counted toward that segment? Try it out!

The new External Bookings feature is available in three flexible pricing plans. View all your external bookings’ commissions in one place to make invoicing and analytics easy—make an informed decision when it’s time to switch to the most economical plan for you. Toggle to view a summary of each month, or download a csv. to keep your accounting simple.

New Price for Premium Support

When you need support and you need it now, skip to the front of the line and book call time with our Support Specialists by upgrading to Premium Support. We’ve updated the pricing and it is now offered at EUR 99 (USD 99)/month, which includes 4 hours of support calls and prioritized support response times.

Stay on top of your invoicing—it’s at the core of how your workspace stays in business. The language around manual invoicing under Customize » Features » Payments has been clarified. It also now includes a link that takes admins to a related setting under Setup » Invoice Settings, where they can further click through to the relevant, customizable email.

If you ever need to pause automated member payments, you’ll now be guided to all the affected settings so your operations and invoicing stay consistent.

Exit buttons on modals, like the booking and booking confirmation modal, underwent visual improvements for clarity and accessibility, including a shadow that keeps them visible against white backgrounds.

Ever had the problem of a “hidden” exit when your resource images are light or white? The newly styled button now makes it clear how to escape once you’ve captured all the details you need to.

Shortcuts for email customization

Good navigation keeps management easier. When admins open the modal to cancel an External Booking, they can click to navigate to the exact email they are being prompted to customize, making the workflow clear.
