Schreiber Coworking & Offices didn’t just need to organize its operations; it had to do so at the fast pace of a market dominated by international giants. With Odoo, it replaced scattered processes and disconnected systems with a single platform that allowed it to coordinate all areas, triple efficiency, and expand from one to six locations without losing agility.
Founded in 2000, Schreiber Coworking & Offices was born when the concept of virtual offices was barely known in the country. At first, they offered traditional office rentals, but quickly realized the market demanded something different: a new model of offices located in central areas, without the high costs and complexities of the traditional model. That’s when they switched to the virtual office and coworking model, specializing in providing a legal and commercial address for companies operating remotely or in hybrid formats.
Today, with locations in San Isidro, Miraflores, and Surco, they are a benchmark in the Peruvian market. Their value proposition is based on offering a tax/legal address in the country’s main corporate hubs and a permanent service: trained staff at every site, mail management, a wide variety of workspaces, call and visitor handling (including authorities), plus additional solutions like storage and parking.
"We’re the only ones with a hub in San Isidro’s Financial District, with highly trained staff and facilities specifically designed to provide strong support to our member companies. We’re very proud to have contributed over the years to the growth of businesses that share our same commitment: keep moving forward, giving it all; always more, never less."
The Challenge: Fragmented Systems Slowing Growth
Rapid growth brought a major challenge: their technology wasn’t keeping up. Before Odoo, Schreiber used more than 12 different applications: Office for general tasks, a local accounting system, another for attendance tracking, separate tools for email marketing, and an independent CRM. They even tried building their own system, but costs and lack of integration made it unsustainable.
"Each department managed its own database. We wasted time updating information across systems, which hurt our efficiency and, above all, the customer experience."
They explored options: SaaS platforms designed specifically for coworking (which didn’t fit their model) and Salesforce (which lacked the complete integration they needed). What they required was something flexible, scalable, and fully under their control.
The Turning Point: One Platform to Integrate it All
Their search led them to Odoo after several meetings with specialists. A contact already using the platform demonstrated its capabilities, and they quickly realized it was exactly what they needed: a modular, scalable, and fully integrated system.
"Odoo gave us the control we were looking for and the flexibility to grow. Today, it’s the heart of our operation."
How Odoo boosted their growth and efficiency:
Gradual, self-managed implementation: They started with Accounting, Contacts, and Collections, then added CRM, Sales, Subscriptions, Appointments, Email Marketing, Marketing Automation, Website with Live Chat, Attendance, and Surveys (Service). Odoo’s flexibility allowed them to configure everything internally without relying on external developments.
Full data integration: They went from handling multiple databases to a single source of real-time information, eliminating duplication and errors.
Operational efficiency: Meeting room booking automation increased space utilization efficiency by more than 50%.
Smarter marketing: With Email Marketing and Automation, they personalize member communications, strengthened internal marketing, and boosted referrals. Professional templates and a modern look & feel also reinforced their brand image.
Continuous improvement with Odoo: Staying up to date with the latest versions became part of their strategy. They’re migrating to version 18 and plan to adopt 19, which will bring new AI-powered features.
"Our challenge now is to keep up with Odoo: every update brings improvements that enhance our service and keep us competitive against global giants."
The Future: More Growth, More Innovation
With six locations and expansion plans, Schreiber will continue to bet on technology and user experience to stand out. They also plan to further leverage AI in internal processes and marketing, and remain the preferred choice for remote companies in Peru and abroad.
"Our goal is clear: to grow, innovate, and continue offering the best virtual office and business address service in the country.”
Schreiber’s story proves that technological integration is not a luxury: it’s a necessity for sustainable growth. If your company is looking for efficiency, control, and scalability, Odoo can be your best ally.
