iPad Apps for Team Collaboration [The Business Talk]

When it comes to businesses, it’s very crucial for every individual to be guided with their tasks in order to accomplish the current project, and eventually, get the targeted goal. That is why their presence-from the smallest person to the biggest boss-is priceless as they conduct a meeting to tackle about every issue there is. And this is where the whiteboard and whiteboard marker get the biggest role on collaborating. But, if even one with an important role misses out, expect that the project will likely fall out.

Yet, in this digital age, communicating the needs to every individual is likely something that is made simpler, easier, and reachable within the fingertips. You can just beep or call someone through your smartphone and you can have them informed in a jiffy. But, who says businesses should only be bound to using smartphones? Actually, you can use your trusty iPad, too, in order for you to collaborate with your team and have a brainstorming. Just load them with the right apps, and you and your team are good to go even if one or most of you are not around. Are you having skepticism? Check out the list of apps below:

Have I mentioned that whiteboard and whiteboard marker play the biggest role on a meeting? And that is why here is Whiteboard: Collaborative Drawing app for your iPad that serves as your whiteboard and also lets your finger be the whiteboard marker. So, does that mean you and your team put all your fingers in a single iPad to collaborate? Absolutely not. For all your colleagues who have iPad, better install this app, then you can connect multiple users all at once to share the endless space of the Whiteboard app. Now, you can scribble out all the ideas right off the bat, and let everybody know how bright that bulb above your head is. It’s really hard to draw a realistic picture on the whiteboard unless you’re a skilled artist, so you can import photos as well to collaborate well so long as all of you are connected on the cloud.

Here goes another whiteboard, the Conojo Whiteboard. Basically, it does the same thing with that of Whiteboard: Collaborative Drawing app as well. But this time around, you can connect either through Wi-Fi or Bluetooth connection. What’s the sense of that, you ask? I guess it just tries hard to replace the use of whiteboard. Simply put, it's an emergency whiteboard whenever you and your colleagues-or your group mates-suddenly needed to conduct a meeting. We can use these apps for all sorts of teamwork generally, can’t we? And going back to business talking, this app includes features like screencast and preconfigured templates. Just like Whiteboard: Collaborative Drawing app, you can also import pictures straight from your device or your cloud accounts (Dropbox, WebDAV, and you name it). [$1.99]

Now, if you want to use a more professional app to start a real business talking, SyncSpace got you the right whiteboard to write on. But hey, this is not your ordinary whiteboard. It has an inclusion of features like wrist guard to block off a part of the screen from touch input in order to keep the ideas safe, and importing photos, maps, or web links. Like the aforementioned apps, evidently it offers real-time collaboration. As I've said, this is a professional app so it really comes with a price. [$19.99]

Now, you can gather your colleagues personally or online to set a meeting through these apps. And this is also to remind us that despite the technological advancements, the traditional whiteboard and whiteboard marker are still remembered.
