What Conceptboard is

Conceptboard is a shared online whiteboard that combines visual collaboration with digital task management. Teams can use it for brainstorming, workshops, project planning, product roadmapping, and group decisions. Boards support tasks, comments, templates, sections, and project organization; diagramming, presentation mode, an infinite canvas, workshop templates, and voting tools are also listed. External guests can open shared boards without an account, and guests and visitors are free of charge on professional accounts. The service is cloud-based and requires an internet connection. It is available on web, Android, and iOS, with tablet use through a browser. Integrations include Microsoft Teams, Google Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive, Atlassian Confluence, and Webex.
