Gather is very fun to use and yet also functional even though the general idea is quite whimsical. Having a virtual office really helps create a feeling of being together with your colleagues even though you're many miles apart in real life. Especially for fully remote teams, Gather is really valuable. With Gather 2.0, the interface and usability features got a great update as well.

I find Gather to be an excellent platform for interactive virtual collaboration. It creates a virtual office environment that makes communication more natural and engages remote teams effectively. I really like the interactive virtual workspace concept, which allows for spontaneous conversations and a real office-like experience. The platform is easy to use, with customizable spaces, smooth screen sharing, and reliable audio/video quality. It significantly enhances team connection and makes virtual meetings a lot less monotonous and more productive. I also appreciate how user-friendly the setup was, with a straightforward interface and flexible customization options. The templates, guides, and support resources were incredibly helpful, making the onboarding process much smoother.

Gather Town gives us a way to bring colleagues together from all over the world on a fully customizable map and host an event that feels both highly interactive and easy to use. We’ve been using the platform for four years for our international online conference, accommodating around a hundred simultaneous participants over three days. It has worked well for running poster sessions and setting up a virtual paleoart gallery. It's difficult to get to grips with at first when organizing the space, but afterwards you quickly realize all the possibilities and it's a great platform. This platform represents our biggest expense, but it's worth it; plus, we can benefit from a discount for non-profit organizations.
