Best Virtual Office Software for a 50-Person Team (2026) | Katmai

Written by Daniel Kosh | Oct 10, 2026, 6:47:59 AM

For a 50-person team, the best virtual office is the one your whole company keeps open all day, and at 50 seats setup and adoption matter more than feature lists. Katmai is our pick for teams that want to see each other: a browser-based photorealistic 3D office on live video, set up for you by the Katmai team, at $25 per user per month with every feature included. Gather and Kumospace are the main avatar options at this size, and Roam suits teams that prefer a map of rooms.

This guide is published by Katmai. Competitor prices come from each vendor's own pricing page in October 2026; check them before you buy.

What matters at 50 seats

  1. Setup. Fifty people need a space for each team, meeting rooms and a place for all-hands. Ask who builds it. With Katmai, the Katmai team sets up your spaces and adds your users in a configuration meeting after your demo.
  2. Adoption. A virtual office only works if people leave it open. Pilot with one team before rolling out.
  3. Hardware. Fifty laptops are rarely identical, and a photorealistic 3D office asks more of a machine than a 2D map. Katmai recommends 16GB of RAM and an i7 processor or better.
  4. Billing and minimums. Published prices are often annual rates, and some plans have seat minimums.
  5. Guests. If you meet clients or candidates in the office, check whether guests are billed.
