The main advantage of living together in a colony is that it is easier to find a mate. In addition, once a suitable cave has been found, many bats will want to live there since there are not that many suitable locations for them to live, where they can nest in a way that protects them from bad weather and from predators. If you have a desirable site, lots of individuals will want to live there. The result is a colony.
