Frequently asked questions

What is an online whiteboard?
  

An online whiteboard replicates the traditional whiteboard but with digital enhancements. By moving the whiteboard online, individuals or teams can jot down ideas, brainstorm, plan projects, and more – in real-time, irrespective of their physical locations.

What are online whiteboards used for?
  

Digital whiteboards are perfect for sparking creativity, enriching workshops and training, and providing space for flowcharts and diagrams. They provide a dynamic platform for detailed project planning, allowing teams to chart out project timelines right on the board and outline tasks and responsibilities from the start. 

During the project design phase, online whiteboards serve as collaboration tools for sketching designs, creating prototypes, and brainstorming innovative solutions. Teams can map out project needs and visualize project components. Whiteboards also help with resource planning. As the project life cycle progresses, whiteboards can shift into valuable tools for progress monitoring and diagramming solutions to emerging issues, which helps keep projects on track and within scope.
