Workuity has been in the hospitality industry since 2017, aiming to provide flexible workspaces to businesses and organizations of all sizes. Their flagship is located in the Biltmore area and one more is in Chandler. 

We’re fans of the first location, which is conveniently located at the heart of Phoenix. The area is also sprawling with food establishments that are just around the corner, plus a cafe in the same building.

Coming from a family of entrepreneurs himself, founder Daniel Kite infused years of experience in running seven small businesses into the company. The result is a well-designed co-working and office space with top-of-the-line amenities.

It’s apparent that start-ups and emerging industries were in mind as we toured the fully-equipped and -furnished meeting rooms. They also provide high-speed internet, not to mention flexible plans for lessees.

These are all included in their package for virtual offices at either location, which we like. 

Other benefits include the usual business address to accept packages or meet clients and a phone rep, live or automated. We heard parking may be challenging, considering that it’s shared with other building tenants.

On the other hand, prospects have the option between a basic or premium deal that is both available for monthly rent. This is great for those who don’t want the pressure of the overhead that comes with a long-term lease.

Price starts at $59 per month with a business address, email notifications, and the use of meeting rooms. Unfortunately, the rooms are charged with separate payments but come at a discounted rate at the least.

With over 30 years in the industry and 20 locations strategically placed across the valley, Regus has proven to be a top contender in the game. Their network is globally widespread and serves tens and thousands of businesses and organizations.

Although they have locations nearer the valley’s center, the ones at Camelback Square and Paradise Valley are the top-rated choices according to our survey.

For one, they’re both conveniently located within the city hubs and are close to commercial establishments. They have tenants who have been with them for several years, which is telling of the quality of their services.

We heard the maintenance staff is on top of upkeep and the admin is a pleasure to work with. Combined with spacious workspaces and staying up-to-date on trends, it’s no wonder why companies like Spotify and Microsoft trust them.

However, some tenants with contract-related concerns can’t say the same thing about the help desk. They’re either unresponsive or deemed unhelpful in resolving the matter at hand.

Still, their virtual offices are one of the most popular among their offers since they are packed with the essentials. Among these are a dedicated receptionist, community networking and events, a mail forwarding system, and physical office spaces.

Moreover, these terms can be customized according to the needs of your business, which is great. Tenants can upgrade or use their virtual office in joint with other packages such as private offices and co-working spaces.

This may be why the cost per month is higher than most, clocking in at $85 just for a business address.

Launched in 2012, Expansive is a provider of workspaces, venues, storage, and long-term leasing across 34 cities in the country. 

Bill Bennett visualized active, vibrant, and collaborative spaces when he founded the company. This was also based on his firsthand experience as a business owner renting a run-of-the-mill office space.

There are currently three locations in Phoenix with virtual offices, but we think the Downtown and Midtown branches tick all of the right boxes. Both are situated along the Central Avenue Corridor at the metro area’s center of activity, which we like.

The Heard Building is one of the city’s most iconic buildings as the first high-rise structure that was built in 1919. On the other hand, the Midtown location is known for its 53-foot mural by JBAK and boasts floor-to-ceiling windows with panoramic views.

Both venues offer three different packages that come at flat rates, which is convenient. Price starts at $79 per month which includes a business address and mail receiving only, plus a set-up fee of $99.

Unfortunately, the offers don’t cover the use of amenities such as conference rooms, printing, and internet. These would need to be reserved or purchased separately in advance, should you need them.

It seems to be worth it because of the cutting-edge IT and infrastructure in place, with prompt service for member requests by the building management. We heard the lounges are worth availing of as needed for client meetings and coworking sessions. 

Overall, we think they’re well-rounded in every aspect and have the best locations among the others we’ve seen.

Lux offices began as early as 1977 and is founded on design principles that create stimulating and productive spaces for its users. They achieve this through the right blend of materials, lighting, and other interior elements.

We like that they have locations in both the east and west valleys, one in Avondale and the other in Scottsdale.

However, this means they’re far from the center of Phoenix where the majority of activity occurs. If you’re planning a business in this area, then we suggest looking somewhere else.

In contrast, their virtual office offerings are customizable to your needs and are affordable compared to others. Their mail services start at $25 per month but tenants can build on this with other inclusions like lobby services and printing.

Other bundles include the Lux Exclusive and Lux Professional, both featuring access to direct fiber internet and the membership app, a bistro, and meeting room discounts. Companies can use either location, which expands their coverage area.

We also like that they maintain relationships with organizations under their roof. From what we’ve heard, their management is very accommodating with their tenants and provides seamless services in person or online. 

The downside is that there is a 3-month minimum lease and the rates only apply to one user at a time. In this case, you can contact them about the pricing structure for additional members.

Other than that, they’ve pretty much got it down in terms of administrative support, maintenance, and facilities.

Office Evolution has grown to over 75 locations across the US since its inception in 2003. Their spaces are designed to meet the needs of small businesses and sole proprietorships in particular.

We like that they have it in mind to be a flexible and affordable aspect of business plans. Their goal is to take the stress out of the process of renting office spaces so that entrepreneurs can focus all their energy on their professions.

They’re established along Chandler Boulevard, away from the hubbub of busy streets but located within a peaceful but burgeoning neighborhood. 

We appreciate that they recommended nearby restaurants on their website like Hillside Spot Cafe and El Taco Santo, so tenants won’t have to look further. 

Their virtual solutions come in two packages, although we wished they had customizable options to cater to varying needs as well. Still, we think their Professional Plan for $194/mo is comprehensive and a good deal for most.

For one, this includes all the basics like business address, reception, mail scanning, forwarding system, and even access to notary services. Moreover, tenants can also enjoy their coworking and office spaces with 24/7 building access.

We heard their staff adopt the same level of professionalism and are attentive to the needs of the users, which takes the icing on the cake. Some entrepreneurs even expressed that choosing them has been one of the best decisions for their businesses.

If you’re a small business in the area looking for an all-inclusive offer, then they’re your best bet as far as we’ve searched.
