Glue

Overview

Glue is a virtual collaboration platform for teams running remote meetings, workshops, and training. It is best suited to groups that want spatial interaction and a shared workspace that lasts beyond the call. Choose it for that continuity; the trade-off is that larger teams or longer sessions quickly outgrow the free plan.

Key features

Customizable avatars, spatial audio, and virtual spaces give meetings a sense of co-presence and support non-verbal interaction. That emphasis can help workshops and training feel more participatory, but adds little for teams seeking only a conventional video meeting.

Sticky notes, whiteboards, presentations, brainstorming, co-creation, annotation, and note-taking cover collaborative work during a session. Teams can import 3D models and store presentations, images, videos, and models in cloud storage; importing files is done through the web interface. Persistent team spaces keep content available after meetings, so teams can return to progress and add annotations rather than treating each session as a one-off.

Spaces can be branded and configured as venues for meetings, presentations, training, situation rooms, or product showcases. Screen sharing is supported, access is invite-only, and Slack and Trello are examples of platforms that integrate with Glue. The combination favors private, structured team collaboration over open drop-in gatherings.

Glue describes its security as bank level and says it uses industry practices, proprietary data protection algorithms, and third-party solutions. That is a stated approach, not a substitute for checking whether its controls meet an organization's requirements.

Pricing

The Free plan costs €0.00 per free and includes 10 Glue Team Members, 10 Team Spaces, 30 minutes per session, and 2GB of Team File Storage. It is a practical starting point for a small group, but the membership, session, and storage caps constrain recurring or content-heavy work.

Professional costs €50.00 per month when billed yearly, per user; monthly billing is €60/user/month. It provides unlimited Team Spaces, Session Time, and Team File Storage, making it the more suitable option when the free caps interrupt regular collaboration. The per-user charge means costs rise with the team, and the annual price requires yearly billing.

Enterprise has custom pricing and offers customized spaces with branding, custom hosting options, single sign-on, browser-only sessions, a service-level agreement, premium onboarding, and priority support. It is aimed at organizations needing those deployment or service terms rather than a published seat-based price.

Platforms

Glue is available on Android, iOS, macOS, web, and Windows. Its download options also include Meta Quest, Pico, and HTC Vive Focus 3; PC VR support includes HP Reverb, HTC Vive, Oculus Rift, Valve Index, and Windows Mixed Reality headsets. The breadth suits teams mixing desktop and VR access, while the web interface is also used to import files.

Who it's for

Glue is a strong fit for remote teams that run interactive workshops or training and want shared materials to persist between sessions. It is less compelling for teams that need only standard meetings, or for groups whose membership and session needs exceed the free limits but do not justify a per-user paid plan.

Pros and cons

• Pros: Persistent spaces and annotations let teams continue work after meetings instead of losing the session's context.
• Pros: Spatial audio, customizable avatars, and VR device support give collaboration a spatial option across desktop and headset use.
• Pros: The collaboration toolkit, cloud file storage, and space customization cover workshops, training, and showcases in one environment.
• Cons: Free use is limited to 10 members, 10 spaces, 30-minute sessions, and 2GB of storage.
• Cons: Professional is priced per user and costs more for monthly billing, while Enterprise requires custom pricing.

Verdict

Glue is a good choice for teams whose workshops or training benefit from spatial presence and persistent shared spaces. Its collaboration tools and broad device support make that approach practical, but small teams should weigh the free caps and larger teams the per-user cost; look elsewhere if a standard meeting format or predictable low-cost scale matters more.
