Blog Summary: – Nearly half of regular office-goers worldwide complain about their office problems. However, coworking spaces do better than other workspaces at fixing challenges like that.
Back in the 90s, coworking started with sharing ideas to work on coding projects. Many have called those spaces precursors of what ‘coworking’ is today. With its booming industry growth, hybrid work is becoming common these days. It’s not just restricted to a one-room desk and a chair; it's flourishing through shared workspaces, business centers, personal suits, virtual offices, and more. According to Forbes, workers who thrive in coworking produce higher output than in usual workplaces. That’s why almost 19,400 coworking spaces are solving big business problems all over the globe. Let’s take a look at some of them.
1.
A fact for contract workers is that they don’t quite feel excited to always work from home because of their low motivation and focus on work. It does become a little difficult for them if they’ve binge-watched their favorite series last night or indulged in important family-related work. The next morning, they’re already under stress to return to work in a cafe environment that can kill their focus with all the distractions and noise around them.
Remote workers, such as freelancers or entrepreneurs, usually work from home. They often find themselves thinking of their household chores between work or dealing with non-work-related concerns while they have an urgent deadline to meet at work. This informal environment makes it difficult for them to finish their work on time, making them feel overwhelmed later.
What if we told you that there’s a workspace that offers all office amenities and facilities and where you can have close to zero work distractions? That’s coworking—it provides a stress-free environment where professionals can work independently with like-minded people, making them fully efficient at work.
Coworking lets you choose the perfect work mood that suits your work life, making things much easier for you than when you had no control. With a tech-integrated infrastructural facility, high-end internet speed, and a sophisticated environment, coworking members maintain a productive working life.

Investing in a new office building is incredibly pricey. Moreover, there's no point in choosing an expensive space when you’re solely handling a business, want to increase profits, or are just starting out.
We know that working from home is not always the best option for solopreneurs who might sometimes need a conference room with a high-speed internet connection or a place to network with other businesses in their niche. This is where coworking comes into the scene by offering cost-effective ways of starting a new business or expanding an existing one. With this, professionals can save more without renting a space every month while not missing out on the perks of having a workspace to themselves.

Another big business problem is having a workspace accommodating all employees’ work needs. Post-pandemic, the workforce is now accustomed to hybrid work, which means everyone works according to their preferences. Businesses need to give their workforce the ability to choose from options, irrespective of their work styles, for maximum employee engagement. Traditional offices or cafes cannot provide such benefits since these establishments are instituted for commercial purposes and do not consider such perspectives.
At Zioks, we have creative layouts like personal pods for people who prefer to work alone and open workstations for individuals who want to collaborate more with coworkers. Also, for face-to-face client meetings and phone calls with office members, a soundproof workspace is best for privacy while not disturbing/bothering coworkers.

Professionals working remotely or in traditional offices are responsible for organizing themselves or following rigid office policies. In both of these cases, if you’re the one who is wholly determined to complete your daily task, you’ll either get distracted or fall into the temptation of pending things until later. This could lead to work fatigue from overworking under both scenarios.
Coworking spaces can help you achieve a work-life balance through their carefully designed work and recreational spaces, activities, and overall environment. You’ll encounter different types of people in coworking places, learning from each other while striving for better performance. At Zioks, we focus on giving our members the best a coworking environment can offer and its facilities to keep them stress-free.
Replacing other workplaces with coworking eliminates distractions, prevents friction, and improves employee productivity. Coworking also meets the broad baseline with its services, where professionals make a long-term contract after experiencing work in a symbiotic environment.
While every coworking space is unique, all offer the same benefits—meeting like-minded people, focusing on work, and having a quiet space to conduct client meetings. By making a space that connects you with other professionals and allows you to make good use of professional resources, coworking creates the new normal in the world of workplaces. Similar facilities are also offered at Zioks, a high-end shared office space in Kolkata which is unique when it comes to offering a range of shared office space solutions, as it contains open workspaces, collaboration areas, event rooms, conference rooms, personal cabins, and, significantly, ‘office suites’ that are best suitable for solopreneurs. We also have a private lounge area where members can host their guests/visitors or participate in our community events. So, walk into our flexible space today and experience coworking sophisticatedly!
