Conceptboard review

Conceptboard is a whiteboard aimed at European companies and public bodies that care where their data lives. It runs in data centers in Germany, Advanced customers can choose optional IONOS or StackIT hosting, and special plans offer data centers in a region of your choice, dedicated single-tenant hosting or on-premises hosting. The Starter plan, for individuals and very small teams, includes unlimited boards, a pre-built template library, up to 5 active projects, facilitator tools and 5 GB of storage, with monthly or yearly billing from one user. Advanced adds team templates, unlimited projects, board history, an approval process, custom branding and 1 TB of storage. Corporate and Government adds single sign-on, audit logs and priority support. A free plan exists and paid plans include a 30-day trial. Prices on the page are in euros, so we have not confirmed a USD price, and its feature set for workshops is smaller than Miro or Mural.
