Move projects forward, faster
Do your projects drag on forever? Improve project collaboration by working in a shared workspace that lets you visually organize all your people, files, and apps in one place.
Banish information silos and duplicated work

Collaborate on complex engineering projects async- Manage technical documentation and knowledge sharing
- Ensure software quality and testing for different clients
Switchboard fixes all this by bringing all stakeholders, information, and tools together in one place, so you can get more done, together or async.
Organize work by project
Digging around in different tools, tabs, and Slack threads to find what you need is a huge time suck. Luckily, there’s a fix for that.
Bring everything you need for a project—people, apps, files—together in dedicated, persistent project rooms. You’ll reduce context switching, get aligned, and cancel more status meetings. The result? More time for focus work.
Get up to speed in always open, persistent rooms
Persistent, host-free rooms save your work, so you can pick up where you left off next time. Just set team member permissions so they can hop in anytime and work together in real time or async. No more lengthy meeting prep, no more sharing materials after the session.
Make meetings count
Sometimes, you just need to to talk things out. But while traditional video conferencing tools are great for talking about projects, they’re not so great for managing them.
Switchboard lets you work side by side, in real time or async, on browser-based apps, documents, and files.. Having everything in the same place makes it easy to see who’s working on what, so you never lose track of project progress again.
Think and work faster with AI
Keeping cross-functional teams on the same page over long-running projects involves a lot of updates. Switchboard saves time with AI-generated summaries of sticky notes, so you can catch everyone up on decisions, milestones, and project progress without the busywork. Just leave your notes in the project room for team members to get updates on their own schedule.
Communicate in context and get more done.
Bring all your teams, apps, and files together in dedicated rooms—and can get to the finish line faster.
You get full access to all Switchboard Pro features for 30 days when you sign up for free. After that, you can downgrade your workspace to a free plan with limited features or subscribe to the Pro or Enterprise option.
A project collaboration tool keeps project teams aligned over long-running or complex cross-functional projects. Streamlined workflows, file sharing, and task management functionality allow in-person, hybrid, or remote teams to collaborate from anywhere.
For example, Asana is a project management tool that uses Kanban boards for agile project management. This tool gives team members visibility on task ownership, status, and dependencies. Project collaboration tools also offer collaboration features like real-time messaging, as well as automation to reduce repetitive or manual tasks.
Digital workspaces like Switchboard facilitate project management by uniting everything and everyone you need for a project in persistent, dedicated rooms. This means you can communicate and work together in real time or async without switching between multiple tools and tabs.
You can use the free version of Switchboard for project collaboration. Its intuitive, cloud-based workspaces enable effective teamwork across different time zones and locations by organizing everything in persistent project rooms.
Traditional video conferencing tools like Microsoft Teams or Zoom rely on one-sided screen sharing but Switchboard goes beyond this to offer a multiplayer experience. Just open up any browser-based app–from mind maps to Gantt charts–and work on them side by side during video calls with team members or stakeholders. You can also use all popular collaboration platforms and project management software in Switchboard with no need for app integrations. For example, Monday.com, Asana, Trello, Jira, Google Drive, Google Docs, Dropbox, and more.
You can use Switchboard to streamline project management and collaboration in real time or async. Just open up any browser-based team collaboration tool, from Google Drive to spreadsheets to digital whiteboards, in your persistent project room and start working side by side. Since all your work is saved, you can also work async on your own schedule and get updates from communication tools like sticky notes and room recordings. This means you can cancel more meetings and use the time for deep work instead.
Switchboard also enables more efficient project planning and communication by letting you open to-do lists and roadmaps directly in your project room so you can track progress. Features like time tracking, instant messaging via group chat, polls, and voting also make for more engaging and productive meetings.
