Analogues of Matterport in Russia: comparing 5 platforms in 2026
Text for those who are already stuck on Matterport: the card does not pass sanctions, export for a VR headset is not available, but I want to give the client a tour on a flash drive for an exhibition. We at 360° Space have walked this path together with dozens of customers - from a developer in Kazan who rented a residential complex for 12 apartments, to a museum in Yekaterinburg who asked for an offline assembly for Oculus Quest 3 for a stand at the forum.
The essence of the choice is simple: either the usual Matterport Pro3 camera with someone else’s cloud, or Russian and open solutions, where you decide for yourself where the tour lives - with us, with you, or without the Internet at all.
Option A: Matterport through intermediaries
Formally, the camera is still transported through parallel import, and the subscription is paid through foreign legal entities. It works, but it's nervous.
Pros:
- Familiar interface - customers have seen such tours on Western real estate websites.
- Auto stitching and Dollhouse view out of the box.
- Large library of tags, measurements, integrations with CRM.
Cons:
- Paying for a subscription is through a gasket, there is a risk of blocking your account and losing all tours.
- There is no regular offline version: the tour lives only in the Matterport cloud.
- Exporting to a standalone VR headset is a separate pain, often through third-party converters.
- Support is only in English, with a delay of a day.
Option B: Russian and open platforms
This includes solutions based on Insta360 / Ricoh Theta with assembly in Pano2VR, 3DVista, Kuula, Marzipano and our own 360° Space platform. They are different in depth, but have one thing in common: you are not tied to someone else’s subscription.
Pros:
- Three hosting formats: 360° Space cloud with technical support in Russian, deployment of the tour on the customer’s server, offline version for PC or separate assembly for a VR headset without the Internet.
- Payment in rubles, agreement with a Russian legal entity, closing documents.
- Flexibility: custom fonts, branding, integration with 1C, amoCRM, Bitrix24.
- Shooting with the same panoramic cameras as Matterport competitors - the quality does not sags.
Cons:
- Auto-stitching with one button is not available everywhere - some platforms require manual work by the operator.
- The dollhouse-type (doll house) is not implemented by everyone, and is not so polished.
- The library of ready-made integrations is smaller than that of Matterport.
From experience, the disadvantages are resolved at the shooting stage. For example, we shoot on Insta360 Pro 2 + Leica BLK360 lidar, and we get the “doll house” through our own rendering.
Comparison table of five platforms
| Criteria | Matterport | 360° Space | 3DVista | Kuula | Marzipano |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Payment in rubles | Through an intermediary | Yes | Through an intermediary | Through an intermediary | Free (open-source) |
| Cloud with support in Russian | No | Yes | No | Partially | No |
| Hosting on the client's server | No | Yes | Yes | No | Yes |
| Offline version for PC/VR | Limited | Yes | Yes | No | PC only |
| Auto stitching and Dollhouse | Yes | Yes (manual control) | Partially | No | No |
| Entry threshold for the customer | Average | Short | High | Short | High (developer needed) |
We compare prices qualitatively: Matterport through an intermediary is usually more expensive in the long run due to the monthly subscription in foreign currency; Kuula and Marzipano are cheaper, but do not cover offline tasks; 360° Space and 3DVista are comparable on medium-sized projects, but on large projects, 360° Space wins due to the included support.
Our verdict
If you have real estate, a restaurant, a showroom, a museum or a production site of 200 m² or more, take the “Russian platform + operator with its equipment” bundle. Matterport in 2026 in Russia is an extra layer of risk for the sake of a familiar logo.
Specifically: for marketing and sales - the 360° Space cloud, so that the client opens a tour from his phone in a second. For corporate customers with a security service - deployment on the customer's server. For exhibitions, presentations and staff training - offline assembly on a laptop or standalone version for Meta Quest 3 or Pico 4.
Case study: a chain of car dealerships from three cities came to us with tours filmed on Matterport Pro2. We transferred them to 360° Space, connected dealer branding and put together an offline version for managers’ tablets. Sellers show the tour to the client directly in the salon, without Wi-Fi.

Frequently asked questions
Is it possible to transfer an already filmed Matterport tour to 360° Space?
Yes, if you still have the original panoramas or access to your account. We unload the spheres, rebuild the navigation, add branding and deliver the tour in the required format - cloud, your server or offline.
How is the price compared to Matterport?
We don’t publish the exact figures of our competitors, but based on experience, 360° Space works out cheaper over a long distance - there is no monthly subscription in foreign currency, the payment is one-time for the project. You can calculate a specific estimate using the calculator.
Does the tour work on a VR headset without the Internet?
Yes, we are separately building a standalone version for Meta Quest 3, Pico 4 or Oculus Rift. The tour is delivered via SideQuest or direct APK and works without Wi-Fi - convenient for exhibitions and presentations in the field.
