Understanding coworking space usage
In post-pandemic years, Ironclad, a leading digital contracting platform, has struggled to make informed decisions about its hybrid work policy and real estate.
They were using WeWork AllAccess for some employees, but not all of them were taking advantage of it. This lack of data and insights into how, when, and why employees use flex spaces was why Ironclad switched to Gable.
Josh Bukstein, the Director of Workplace at Ironclad, shared their transformative journey with Gable. "Before partnering with Gable, our company was a bit at the back of the pack when making decisions on hybrid policy and real estate," he said.
The partnership with Gable enabled Ironclad to gain insights into the actual flex space utilization in real time.
"For our remote coworking employees, we're getting data on where people are booking, specifically geographically. It's fantastic to see that broken down by team, department, and location for future real estate decisions," Bukstein explained.
This wealth of data has empowered Ironclad to make more informed decisions to serve their team better and ensure productivity.
Office utilization data side-by-side with coworking data
In addition to the coworking booking data, Ironclad needed a tool to manage its office utilization. They chose to use Gable’s HQ product and integrate with Brivo, their access control system.
"With Gable, we've started to be able to look at the actual utilization in our offices and coworking spaces. Now we can see how many people intend to come in, how many people actually come in, and start to make decisions based on that."
Empowering Employees
Ironclad has noticed the most significant change since using Gable: employees' enhanced ability to connect and collaborate independently.
Employees can get together on their own, without the company organizing anything. This creates a sense of autonomy and trust, fostering a more flexible environment.
"The employee experience is a no-brainer. It's so much better than previous methods. Anyone who's booked an Airbnb or other space on the internet in the last 10 years can use it," Bukstein added, emphasizing the user-friendly nature of Gable's platform.
A Partnership of Growth
What set Gable apart for Ironclad was their willingness to adapt and grow with their needs. "The biggest benefit of working with Gable is their willingness to talk to us about how we would use the product and change or update features. I don't think you would get to talk to the leaders with many other products," Bukstein shared.
This open communication and flexibility to adapt to Ironclad's specific needs have been instrumental to the success of their partnership.
The Results
Ironclad's partnership with Gable has transformed its approach to managing hybrid work policies and real estate and empowered employees to work more flexibly and efficiently.
In tech companies, programs are measured through their outcomes. For Irconlad, those outcomes are the employee experience, the availability of data, and cost-effectiveness.
“We have all those three things with Gable. Everyone knows how to book spaces, we got all the data we needed and the employee experience is amazing.”
