Studies of globular clusters in spiral galaxies are still available for only a few galaxies with a limited range of galactic types. We have identified (or set upper limits on) the cluster systems in several edge-on spirals ranging from the early-type spiral NGC 7814 to the late type NGC 5907. We discuss the properties of the cluster systems and their relationship to the properties of the parent galaxies.
