Reading Time: 3 minutes

Time and time again, our clients tell us that the HqO Workplace Experience Platform™ consistently achieves higher engagement rates than others.

In addition to our easy-to-use app and diverse programming options, we have a tried and tested implementation, onboarding, and launch process so you can bring more tenant users onboard in less time — and reap all the benefits of your investment in HqO.

Below are just a few highlights of HqO app use-cases in major regions around the world.

Steelwave

 

HqO launched at The 410, a SteelWave property located in the heart of Upper Downtown in Denver, Colorado.

Leading up to the event, The 410 team used their HqO app to host a series of giveaways, raffles, and even a full in-app scavenger hunt (called the ‘Hunt for Denver Landmarks) to give tenants the chance to win prizes worth up to $500.

 

Metropolis

 

HqO launched at NBC Tower, a Metropolis property in Chicago, Illinois.

They used the occasion to also celebrate Mother’s Day with the slogan, “Download the app, pick up a rose.”

Tenants who downloaded their building app were able to enjoy fresh long-stem roses for the occasion.

 

LL American Realty Advisors

 

“[The app] helps me know what is going on so I can connect and have an outing with fellow coworkers, and get to know building staff/initiatives.”

HqO launched at 121 Seaport Boulevard in Boston, MA, an LL American Realty Advisors property. They celebrated with an ice cream party, giveaways, and more.

 

Manulife Real Estate

 

HqO launched at Maison Manuvie, a Manulife Real Estate property located in downtown Montreal, Canada.

The event, which promoted HqO partner ToDoToday and the La Conciergerie app, featured cotton candy and popcorn machines, a smoothie bike, fresh gourmet appetizers, massages, and more.

 

Landsec

 

HqO launched The Landsec Experience app at several of their properties in the U.K.

The launch events were spread out over 4 weeks and included plants, smoothies, doughnuts, and even portable phone chargers.

 

Hibernia REIT

 

HqO launched at the Windmill Quarter in Dublin, Ireland.

Together with client Hibernia REIT, the teams advertised the opening of Tailor & Blue, an on-site coffee shop. They achieved this through the app, as well as offering free coffee and cupcakes to WMQ occupiers. All payments and orders are currently being run through HqO partner BBot, and the coffee shop is also open to the general public.

The Collection

 

HqO launched with The Collection, a luxury segment landlord based in Amsterdam, at six of their properties.

They have already seen an engagement rate of 67%, and over half of their tenants have signed up for the app.

In Their Own Words

 

HqO sees each customer as a true partner, helping them transform their workplace experiences, optimize their spaces, and boost financial performance. Here’s what they had to say about our product and working together with our dedicated success teams.

“HqO allows us to connect with individual tenants across our campus, and it allows us to more curate their needs. That has become something that is really powerful for us. It helps us get to know our tenants better, and it helps us become better landlords.” – Skylar Huth, Director of Asset Management at Nuveen

“Our [HqO powered] building app is a favored resource for event details, property amenities, digital programming, and tenant guidelines.” – Alexa Verma, Community Manager at CBRE

“The key [to creating office destinations] is flexibility, and that looks different to each office […] This makes our tenants feel at home and fosters creativity, wellness, and community while in the workplace. This is why we are partnering with HqO on our building events; it helps create a sense of belonging and allows people to network and participate in their larger community. It’s all about cultivating that sense of community and connecting with each other in a more meaningful way.” — Kairee Tann, Vice President of Innovation and Asset Management at The Swig Company

“Listening to our clients and working with HqO has enabled us to adapt quickly to changing business and retail requirements, and we’re looking forward to seeing how the Brindley Life app evolves over the coming months and years and becomes an even more essential part of employees’ lives at Brindleyplace.”— Matt Long, Head of Customer Engagement and Placemaking at Brindleyplace

“Our team is deeply committed to transparent communication and continued engagement with our tenants. Through our partnership with HqO, we have enhanced these efforts and can now reach a broader audience within our buildings. It has been exciting to see how receptive our tenants have been to the technology and we look forward to launching new integrations that will support our flexible leasing offering in the coming months.” — Megan Calabrese, Director of Property Management at Foxrock Properties
