Case Study: Impact Brixton grows its community to 400+ members with Optix

How Gerald from Impact Brixton switched from Nexudus to Optix to grow his community to 400+ members

Impact Brixton, a non-profit social enterprise coworking space, was using Nexudus to manage its operations but found it too complex for its community-first model. Gerald Vanderpuye and his team needed a simpler, mobile-first platform with stronger community-building features like a directory and community feed, along with an easier experience for staff and members.

Optix provided the solution, replacing Nexudus with a more intuitive coworking management platform that supported community engagement, bookings, access control, and invoicing. With Optix, Impact Brixton has grown to 400+ in-app members, sent 4,000+ messages, processed 6,000 automated invoices, and enabled 12,000+ bookings, while also reducing daily doorbell buzz-ins by 80% through Kisi integration.
