Venture X Columbia East

Venture X is a great place for those who need temporary space, especially during the summer if you have to drop and pick up kids in the Columbia area. Rather than lose two hours of my day commuting back and forth twice I found a great and comfortable spot that is centrally located and very comfortable as a temporary space. The staff is very helpful, wifi is fast, and they have a great variety of seating options.

Venture X Columbia East has been a perfect short-term solution for me to park myself for a productive day after driving my kid up for his summer internship each day and going home afterwards. It’s a beautiful new brightly-lit very clean space with a wonderful friendly team! I chose the dedicated desk option- spacious, really appreciated the quick setup and supplying of a large monitor and a stand. Lots of food options downstairs as well as within a few minutes drive- easy to do grocery shopping at Wegmans or variety stuff at Target or Walmart, with easy access to freeway. Great free coffee, ample parking, fast and reliable wifi. Like the weekly riddles even though I haven’t been able to figure them out without asking for the answer. Would highly recommend this place for freelancers looking for a place outside of home or Starbucks.

Finding office space that isn’t just incredibly bland and uninspiring is quite a challenge in this area. I recently started working from the new VentureX in Columbia on a ‘hotdesk’ / shared desk membership as was fed up of touring the local Starbucks. The space is comfortable and open - with good facilities like a free coffee machine, microwaves and fridges for bringing lunch in as well. Key to making a workspace usable is access to plug sockets and hi-speed Wi-Fi, both of which I’ve had no problem with yet. You can actually walk on a path to some nearby food options such as Jason’s Deli, via the little lake, which opens up a few options for lunch and fresh air as well. The team here are also super friendly and welcoming which also makes a difference too!

I figured I would leave a fair review after being there for 1 year. Be warned that they cut the heat and air off every evening and the weekend's it doesn't come on at all. My clients after hours and on weekends had a huge problem with this. Secondly, it's the only place that will bill you on a federal holiday and then charge you a late fee the next day. That's not cool. There's also no grace period for late fees. The end all for me is that I found another office space three times the size for just 12 bucks more, a ten day grace period and $2000 dollar office credit. So there are cheaper places that are much larger. The staff is nice and the location is great but compared to other co working spaces just be cautious. The turnover rate of the office rentals at this location is high. There were a few other things that lean towards personal things so I left that out to keep this review as fair and accurate as possible. Upon moving out they attempted to keep the security deposit stating the carpet needed to be replaced when there were no holes rips or tears in the carpet. I took photos before I vacated. The problem is they breached a contract for a bigger space, tried to blame me for their payment system and now since the holidays are coming up, they know the unit will be vacant through the holidays because of their doing, not mine. So be wary.
