Switching core operational software (even if it's just Google Sheets) is a major source of anxiety for any coworking business. The fear of data loss, team disruption, and a steep learning curve can be paralyzing. But what if the transition was the easiest part? We were humbled to hear this perspective from Dr. Abdulrahman Al Saati of Zawiya 97, a leading makerspace in Jeddah. In his own words, he describes the feeling before and after the change. The key takeaway wasn't just about becoming "much faster"—it was that the support they received made the migration feel seamless. When the team and the community both love the result, it's a clear sign that the change was worth it. This is a powerful reminder that the human support behind a platform is just as important as the technology itself. For any shared workspace operator considering a change of the core software, what's your biggest concern?

What one thing in your daily operations causes a massive headache? For many coworking operators in Saudi Arabia, it's payments. You're forced to manually chase invoices and track payments because your system doesn't work with Mada. It’s a "crucial part" of business, as Dr. Abdulrahman Al Saati of Zawiya 97 puts it, but it's a manual one. Hear him talk about the moment they found a fix—and why it made the "easy decision" to finally move away from the "manual way" of doing things. We find it's often the local details like this that make or break an operator's day. What's a "local" challenge in your region that you wish software would solve?
The 'local' fix that changed how Zawiya 97 accepts payments

WORK SMARTER NOT HARDER (SERIES) 17. Track your time daily/weekly You can’t improve what you don’t measure. First, use a time tracking tool or app to keep track of your daily activities. Track each task you perform and the time you spend doing it to spot patterns and areas where you may be wasting time. After reviewing your weekly log, make adjustments to optimize your schedule and identify opportunities for improvement. 18. Use a digital or paper planner that actually works for you. When choosing a planner, ensure it suits your personal preferences and style. After all, a planner aligning with your unique needs will be more engaging and likely to stick with you over time. Through personalization, the planner becomes more than just a tool but a companion in managing your time effectively. NB: How smart have you been working these days?
