Established in 2004, MyOffice Makati is a plain-looking, functional co-working space in Manila catering to freelancers, business owners, and professionals. A big plus for MyOffice is its team of customer service people and receptionists who will handle your calls, emails, mails, and inquiries. This can immensely help you to focus more on planning, strategies, and the heart of your work.

MyOffice is also in partnership with multiple business and lifestyle companies—including many health and wellness companies—to help their clients become more productive.

MyOffice may not look like your modern-day co-working space with their colorless, slightly dull-looking interior facilities. The equipment is pretty much your generic office setup with workstations and desks. However, if you heavily rely on virtual assistants and customer service support for your business, who needs a pretty place? MyOffice is ideal for you.
