Please give us a short summary of your website?
Servcorp has revolutionised the Serviced Offices industry with what Owen Chan, President of Cisco - Asia Pacific, calls ‘simple to use software that changes the way workspace operates’. Our global network of business services and solutions are built by us for your business.
What inspired you to launch your own website?
A website was required to launch our HottDesk product. Through the power of Hottdesk™, clients can gain access to corporate boardrooms, meeting rooms and office space, internationally. They can book their meeting room for any Servcorp location, online and in real time.
When did you launch your first website, and what was it?
We first launched our website in 1999. It was less web 2.0 as it is now.
How did you decide on a name for your website?
The same way someone would decide on a name for their own baby. Alot of brainstorming!
What makes it different from other, similar offerings?
