Gather Town a fun way(and cheap) to do all your meetings
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
In our organization we used Gather Town everyday for the constant communication, it's the easiest way to find another co-worker in one space and text him or talk to him.The principal business problem that Gather Town solves for us is that we only have one tool for everything, now with the recent updates we can share documents.Our work is totally remote so is a great solution for us
