The short version

  • Only Kumospace has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Kumospace reporting from late 2025 described the team as having shrunk to roughly eleven people with the chief executive publicly listed as leading a separate company, so continuity is a genuine question and should be checked before a multi-year commitment.; Splashtop solo plan is $72 per year for a single user; Pro and Performance are priced per user per year on top at $99 and $149
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 31 August 2026.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Kumospace

  • Reporting from late 2025 described the team as having shrunk to roughly eleven people with the chief executive publicly listed as leading a separate company, so continuity is a genuine question and should be checked before a multi-year commitment.
  • Product development has visibly slowed against the category; capabilities that rivals now treat as standard, such as an AI note taker and asynchronous video, are absent.
  • Leaving a spatial office open all day means continuous audio and video connections, which is heavier on laptop battery and bandwidth than an occasional call and is a real complaint from users on poor connections.
  • The free tier caps at five registered members, which is below the size at which a spatial office starts to be useful, so evaluating it properly requires paying.
  • Adoption is behavioural, not technical: teams that do not build a habit of being present in the space get nothing from it, and the licence quietly becomes an unused cost that shows up at renewal.

Splashtop

  • Solo plan is $72 per year for a single user; Pro and Performance are priced per user per year on top at $99 and $149
  • Remote Support SOS plan starts at $259 to $399 per concurrent user per year, separate from the remote access plans
