## ToolGPA grades

**GPA: 2.2 out of 4**, graded Nov 12, 2026. Conceptboard is a browser whiteboard hosted in German data centres, with tasks on the board and facilitation tools for meetings. The free plan stops at 3 boards, prices are in euros without a stated billing basis, and single sign-on costs extra even on the top plan.

- **Value for money: C.** 5 euros per user a month is about the category's cheaper quarter of $5, a little above it once converted, and the page does not say whether that is monthly or annual. Advanced is 10 euros.
- **Free plan and trial: C.** The free plan gives 3 active boards, 100 objects per board and 250 MB. A 30-day trial of Starter and Advanced is also listed.
- **Features: C.** Boards, 150-plus templates, tasks with assignees, voting and a timer. Gaps the listing shows: board history and approvals need Advanced, and single sign-on is an extra fee.
- **Ease of use: C.** No store rating on record. You build the boards yourself.
- **Platforms and integrations: B.** Web only, with Microsoft Teams, Webex and Jira integrations listed. No desktop or phone app is named.

## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** The plain part of Conceptboard you could make: templates, tasks and kanban boards. What surrounds it you could not. The 3 things listed below take a company, not a weekend. That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 37 of the 61 other whiteboard and mind map tools grade higher. It costs $67.03 a year.

- You could make: Templates, tasks and kanban boards: an app builder makes these well.
- You could not: An endless canvas that stays smooth with hundreds of things on it.
- You could not: Several people working in it at the same moment.
- You could not: What a company asks for before it lets staff use something: single sign-on and audit logs.

A judgement by ToolGPA from this listing, by rules that are the same for every tool. Nothing was built to test it.
