If you’re in the market for a coworking space, you’ll likely have seen both Toong and Dreamplex. Which one is the right choice for you?
In this article, we’ll share the differences and for whom we believe each brand is the right choice.
While both Toong and Dreamplex offer similar services, the differences between the two brands are stark.
Toong focuses on an artistic environment where early startups and some more established companies operate their businesses alongside freelancers and remote workers.
The price is often lower than Dreamplex, which is reflected in the physical spaces, facilities, and service.
At Toong, you’ll find friendly team members who are often happy to help you if you need to troubleshoot meeting room bookings, your office space, Wi-Fi or printing (which they’ll do for you.)
Overall, Toong is a good choice for startups for whom budget is a key factor and still want a lively and social experience at work but care less about the level of professionalism of spaces and services.
Dreamplex was founded over 8 years ago and has made a name for itself by continuously reinventing what the workplace in Vietnam looks like.
The team has three core pillars to offer a premium workplace experience to more established companies, including major international brands:
While Dreamplex spaces and services are premium and professional, its prices provide significantly more value than international coworking brands in Vietnam.
Dreamplex balances an international image with local touches well and often gets high marks from its customers for pleasing local team members and visiting global or regional executives alike.
While unavoidably a bit biased, we believe Dreamplex to be the right choice for local and international companies looking for an elevated workplace experience without the high costs of WeWork or Regus.
With regular promotions, Dreamplex is in reach for most companies’ budgets. See our coworking spaces, offices for rent, meeting rooms, or virtual offices.
For startups prioritizing a lower cost, even if it means a more informal setting and lower-grade spaces, amenities, and services, Toong is still a great option.
