When to Choose Croissant Over Gable

Gable treats workspace as an HR perk. Croissant treats it as a financial asset—with usage-based pricing, budget controls, and spend visibility that lets you manage workspace like any other operational cost.

Spaces Included, Not Just Software

Gable charges per seat regardless of usage. Croissant's usage-based model means you pay for hours actually consumed. No subsidizing empty desks when your team works from home.
