Remotly: the free Virbela alternative for remote teams
Virbela is 3D virtual world for enterprise teams. It's a capable virtual office, but most teams searching for a Virbela alternative want more than a virtual space — they need project management, time tracking, and analytics without paying for three more tools on top.
Remotly is a free, all-in-one Virbela alternative that combines a virtual office floor, built-in video and audio calls, real-time chat, Kanban project management, automatic time tracking, and team analytics in a single browser tab. With full Arabic and RTL support, it's the first virtual office built for both global and Middle East teams — and the core plan is free forever, no credit card required.
