Microsoft Whiteboard is a popular collaboration and productivity app that lets you remotely share notes, handwritten drawings, and files with team members.

Collaborating with remote team members can be very difficult, and that is why many people have turned to Microsoft Whiteboard. This unique tool is going to provide you with a simple and streamlined platform that all of your team members will be able to use at once. Microsoft Whiteboard can easily be installed and set up in a matter of minutes, and you could see a huge jump in your team's productivity and efficiency.

The biggest feature within Whiteboard is a digital canvas tool that multiple people can use at the same time. As you make changes to the canvas, the file will automatically be saved to a cloud server so that you don’t have to worry about losing any data. When you want to make changes to the canvas, you can use your finger or a stylus as long as you have a touchscreen device. Those who don’t have a touchscreen device can use a mouse or touchpad, but those won't be quite as efficient.

In addition to drawing out and mapping ideas manually, your team will also be able to add real-time notes to the meeting. As the canvas continues to grow and your plot becomes more complex, you can zoom out to get a better idea of the big picture or zoom in to read notes or make changes. There is also no cap on the number of people who can join each session, and that makes it an ideal option for those who are working for larger companies.

If you have been on the search for a simple and effective collaboration tool for your team, then this might end up being an invaluable piece of software.
