This weekend, we will release major improvements on Conceptboard. That’s why there could be some discontinuity in our service. If you experience short interruptions, please don’t be concerned. We're updating the servers and we'll bring back a Conceptboard you've never seen before.
I think it's about time that we tell you more about the new Conceptboard apart from the introduction of the square meters which I'm sure you already started collecting. :)
By now, you probably got familiar with all of our existing features. That’s great because there are new features coming your way with the release of the new Conceptboard.
Let’s imagine:
You will be able to have a video conversation on the board that you are working on without having to use or install any other software. Wouldn’t that be awesome to actually be able to talk and see your co-workers? You can also chat with your co-workers on the upcoming Conceptboard as in any other instant messaging software.
There won’t be any miscommunications between you and your team members because you will have access to a live location; able to see in real-time what they’re working on and what they’re looking at on the board.
Expect the new Conceptboard to be faster, more intuitive and an overall better user experience.
Till the new Conceptboard will be out end of April, stay tuned, keep boarding and keep collecting square meters.
Awesome things are happening at Conceptboard! We are excited to release many new mind-blowing features for you. Based on your ideas, feedback and all the input you gave us on our support center, you're going to see a lot of improvements in the coming weeks. Thank you all!
One of the biggest changes will be that the free account is no longer limited by the number of boards. Instead, you are going to have a certain amount of square meters to use with your boards. You can use this space to work, scribble and share ideas on as many boards as you like. The new free account contains 5 m² to start with. By signing up now on our "get25" page we will offer you 25 m² free for life. Just imagine, 25 m² equal the size of 400 sheets of paper :)25 m² are not enough? You can increase your total workspace by inviting your friends (you will get an additional 5m² for each friend signing up).If you are already a Basic account user you will start from 25 m².If you already have a Professional/Enterprise or education account, you will get unlimited square meters.Start increasing your workspace now.

So how about it? Do you want to suggest a new feature for Conceptboard?
Now it is very easy to do just that. Just go to FAQ & Support, from there click on Conceptboard FAQs, scroll down until you come across Feature Requests, click that and than click Suggest an idea. (better yet click here) Simple right?!?
If you like a feature request made by another user just vote it. We will mark as Planned the features that will be released in the near future.
Latest feature: Alignment tool. We know (from our user's messages) that at one point it became frustrating to try to align objects on the board so we developed an alignment aid tool. Grab an object press Shift key (and keep it pressed) and try moving the selected object on the board. Do you see the blue alignment lines that appear once you are moving the object close to other objects that are on the board? We think this will make alignment much more easier, what do you think?
The people that we met and talked to at LearnTec last week confirmed us what we already knew: apart from all the benefits that Conceptboard offers to education industry users (big hits were: real time collaboration and hustle free usage) Conceptboard "forces" the users to think a non-linear way.
Think that the following presentation is a great fit.
