Which one is for you

Pick Kumospace if

  • Fits if a remote team wants to drop into rooms instead of booking calls
  • Works for a team of 5 or fewer that can stay on the free plan

Look elsewhere if

  • Tight if you are more than 5 registered members, as Free stops there
  • Pricey if you are a pair, because Business has a 5-member minimum
  • Watch out: SSO, a custom domain, an uptime SLA and white-label branding are Enterprise only
  • Watch out: the FAQ says no refunds as a rule, with the 14-day trial offered instead
  • Watch out: the page shows one $16 price without saying which billing it is

Pick SpatialChat if

  • Fits if you run online events where attendees mingle
  • Works for a small group that can live inside the 12-person free plan

Look elsewhere if

  • Pricey if you are a small team, as Business starts at $399 a month for 50 users
  • Tight if you meet for long, since Free stops at 2 hours a day and 12 people
  • Watch out: the office and education prices weren't shown separately on the pricing page
  • Watch out: Slack, HubSpot, Salesforce and Calendly are marked coming soon
  • Skip it if you want a desktop or phone app, as it is browser only

How this page was made

  • The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
  • The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
  • Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
  • The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
