Collaboard allows you to host your online whiteboard wherever you want: On-Premises (your servers), Private Cloud, or Government Cloud.

Scalability

How do you size your on-site or cloud infrastructure to ensure the online whiteboard is running smoothly and can handle peak usage? How to make sure you don't oversize the environment and prevent high infrastructure costs?

We designed Collaboard as an auto-scalable solution that grows with the number of users and scales down when not used. 

 

scalability

Our biggest self-hosted installation is in Germany. Collaboard is available to 120'000 active users of the Academic Cloud. 

 "The cooperation with Collaboard as a local partner is excellent and we are pleased to be able to cover the high demand for an online whiteboard with an offering directly in the Academic Cloud."
