Close.io also fits nicely in that category as well. We actually started as a more typical Silicon Valley startup but over the last few years transitioned to now being a fully remote/distributed team (profitable with $X million ARR).

What I miss about being in-person is the unplanned conversations on the way to lunch about a problem or feature idea, that otherwise may not have happened at all.

But overall being remote has allowed our team to have better work/life balance, have recruiting/hiring advantages [1], support our world-wide customers better, and lead for more distraction-free work.
