Boards vs Teams

A Board is a shared canvas where board members can collaborate on projects, tasks, ideas, issues etc. You can view a board with cards as a digital whiteboard with post-its. All changes on a Board are instantly visible to all participants in real-time.

In Upwave, users can collaborate in multiple, separate teams, within the same organization workspace. You can create teams for different departments, project groups, external suppliers etc. To get access to Teams you need a Business or Enterprise subscription.
​

After creating your workspace, this is the first screen you will see. To create your first board, simply click on the "New board" button. This will allow you to start completely from scratch, or use one of our already made templates!
​

To create your first team, you first need to start a Business or Enterprise subscription.
Go to your dashboard, and click on the "Teams" tab. Here you will find an overview of the Teams in your Workspace. To create your first Team, click on the button "New team".

Choose name, colour and visibility for your team. A team can either be private (only visible to people invited to the team) or Workspace visible (visible to everyone inside the workspace).

From the team page, you can see all Team Boards in that team, invite members, create new Team Boards and change the Team settings. Click on the Workspace icon in the left corner to go to your dashboard.
