Why teams are moving from Teemyco to Cosmos

Teemyco's $8/member price looks competitive โ€” until you see 360p video, no recording, and a 20-person room cap. Cosmos charges $8.80 per concurrent user and includes everything Teemyco leaves out.

Cosmos Video HD video quality comparison with Teemyco.

360p isn't enough for professional calls

Teemyco's camera tops out at 640ร—360 โ€” the same resolution as a 2010-era webcam. Cosmos captures at 1280ร—720 (true 720p HD) using AV1, the latest-generation codec. Faces are sharper, shared documents are readable, and your team looks professional on client calls.

Cosmos Video supports up to 150 people per call comparison with Teemyco.

20-person cap doesn't scale

Teemyco caps calls at 20 participants. All-hands, town halls, cross-team standups โ€” anything beyond 20 people needs a separate tool. Cosmos supports up to 150 people in a single call, so your entire team stays in one place.

Cosmos Video low CPU usage comparison with Teemyco.

Twice the CPU for half the quality

Teemyco consumes 23.9% CPU and 16% GPU in a 10-person call โ€” nearly double and triple what Cosmos uses (12.4% CPU, 4.8% GPU). Despite eating more resources, it delivers worse video. Switch to Cosmos and your fans go quiet, your battery lasts longer, and Figma stops stuttering.

Teemyco pricing vs Cosmos โ€” what you actually pay

Don't just take our word for it

Our team uses Cosmos daily as a complete work-from-home solution that facilitates our daily meetings, review sessions, and weekly all-hands. Cosmos has dramatically enhanced our productivity, culture and engagement. Our employee NPS increased by 20% as a result of using Cosmos. It also helped create a stronger sense of belonging.

Mike Williams

Production Manager

My remote team needed help with isolation when using traditional communication tools. New team members struggled to seek support on Slack and felt anxious when waiting for a reply. Everyone being available in our Cosmos creates a sense of community; we go through crunch times together, saving us time compared to back-and-forth messages on Slack. For people who need community, Cosmos is a game changer.

Keama Chan

Accounting Manager

Cosmos has transformed our team by streamlining communication, fostering connections, and boosting productivity. With Cosmos, we hold all meetings on a single link, increasing visibility and allowing everyone to contribute. It has made casual conversations and asking questions easier, creating a strong sense of togetherness and enhancing our company culture.

โ€œMy team and I love Cosmos, it's definitely the best way we've found to work remotely, and it's the closest we've felt to being in person. Clicking on someone to start a conversation with them is far more natural than constantly sending Zoom links - just like tapping on someone's shoulder at the office!โ€
