How to run a Gather office pilot
Join over 10,000 remote organizations, from startups to Fortune 500s, building connected, productive teams on Gather.
1. Plan your trial
Your first 30 days on Gather are on us! Invite up to 50 team members to get the full experience.
Before launching, decide who will participate, when, and why you’re trying Gather (this will help with evaluation later).
Who to include:
Select teams that frequently collaborate, such as two engineering pods or an engineering team and a product team.
When to start:
Anytime! Just be sure to communicate expectations to your team so everyone can fully commit.
Know your ‘why’:
Review the benefits of a virtual office and determine what you hope to improve about your team’s culture. Consider these goals as you evaluate your pilot.

2. Create your workspace
Click here to start your free 30-day trial if you haven't already. The app will walk you through initial setup. A few things to keep in mind:
Office Name:
You won’t be able to change this, so use the actual name you want. (Not Acme Co. Test!)
Invite 5 Collaborators:
Use this step to invite other admins. They can help you set up the office and onboard the rest of your team when you’re ready.
Office Template:
Choose the size, theme, and layout of your workspace. An Open layout makes every personal desk unlocked by default, making it easier to hear people around you when they unmute and talk to others. A Private layout makes every personal desk locked by default, so conversations stay private unless you invite someone to join in. A Hybrid layout places both types of desk in your office so you have the best of both worlds.

3. Customize it
Before inviting the rest of your organization, discuss the floor plan with your other admins. Determine where each team will sit and decide if you want to make any changes to meeting areas (more/less, bigger/smaller).
Customize your office with Gather Studio. Drag and drop rooms to move them around, click and drag to expand or shrink them, and add entire meeting rooms or team areas at once.
Open Gather Studio by going to the Main Menu (Gather logo on the left) and clicking 'Edit the office'.
To label a team area, click on it and edit the text box with the new team name.
To add a meeting room or team area, copy/paste an existing one or add a new one from the catalog.
To make an area smaller or bigger, simply click and drag it.
To delete a meeting room, team area, or object, click it and hit Delete.
When you’re done making changes, click Publish.
Best Practices:
Have each department or individual team sit in a Team Area together. (A group of desks.)
Name each Team Area so everyone else knows who sits there at a glance.
Arrange teams so they sit near other departments they commonly interact with. For example, the Engineering Team Area should be near the Product Team Area.

5. Work in Gather
It’s time to start using the office together. Swing by each others’ desks, hold meetings, and collaborate on projects.
Best practices to make the most of your office during the pilot:
Hold all regularly scheduled meetings in Gather. That includes department meetings, standups, 1:1s, all-hands, etc.
Start a coworking session. Click on the couches in your workspace to start a coworking session. Choose from Focused, Pomodoro, or Casual.
Keep Gather open even if you’re not talking to anyone. This helps others see who’s available for real-time collaboration.
Start conversations by waving. This action is a nice way to let someone know you want to talk.
Collaborate with cross-functional partners. These meetings are a great way to introduce Gather to other departments.
Ask your team for feedback throughout the pilot. Are there enough meeting areas? Does the seating chart make sense? Implement feedback for the best experience.
Remember: Gather is a new way of working. As your team builds the habit of collaborating in the virtual office, it’ll feel increasingly easy and natural.

10K+ teams collaborate faster with Gather
Remote work doesn't have to feel slow. See how these teams transformed their culture.
"We needed a space that felt more natural. That’s when we switched to Gather as our virtual office. Now, dropping by a teammate’s desk takes seconds. Ideas flow without the friction of scheduling meetings. Feedback happens in real time, just like in a physical office. The result? Faster iteration cycles. Higher-quality design work. A stronger, more connected team. And most importantly—happier clients."
Siddharth Vij
Co-Founder at Bricx
"I’ve always loved the energy and focus of a war room during crunch time—it’s where the magic happens. Gather has given us the ability to recreate that intense, collaborative environment remotely, which is absolutely invaluable."
Billy Luedtke
CEO of Intuition Systems
"Gather is the cornerstone of our communication and collaboration at Human-I-T now. It’s hard to think of a situation or a world where we're not using Gather to collaborate."
Gabe Middleton
CEO & Co-Founder at Human-I-T
"We knew there must be a better way of collaborating in a mostly remote world that’s not 8 hours of back to back Zoom calls. Team culture happens in the moments between meetings and we were hungry to get back into that norm. When we found Gather we instantly fell in love with it."
Mike Mengell
CTO and Co-Founder of CTO Labs
"Gather leaves nothing to be desired for Google Meet, Teams, Zoom, etc."
Igor V.
Head of Operations
"Gather brings back the things that you don't realize you miss when working from home like: Popping by someone's desk or joining in group conversations when you see some people grouped together. A far better alternative to Teams."

"One of the things we miss about being in an actual office is the casual chats—those quick "Hey, can I ask you something?" moments. Gather lets us do that virtually! You can literally walk over to someone’s desk for a quick chat, which keeps communication smooth and fast, just like in a real office. We have dedicated spaces for meetings, focus time, and even client calls. This structure helps us keep things organized while allowing for those quick drop-ins when someone needs help or input. No more bouncing between different apps—everything happens in one place."

Do I have to start with a structured pilot?
Every organization is different, and you know your colleagues best. Teams that follow a structured pilot often see quicker success. We recommend holding all meetings in Gather (instead of Zoom, Microsoft Teams, or Google Meet) and keeping Gather open all day to promote spontaneous interactions.
How can I make sure my pilot goes smoothly?
If you’re unsure about the best pilot path for your team, contact us. We’ve helped over 10,000 remote organizations, ranging from startups to Fortune 500s, build a connected workspace on Gather, and we’d love to help yours next!
