Choose OpenBoard when
Open source is a requirement, you need macOS or Linux, or your classroom workflow benefits from OpenBoard's broader document, media and interactive-whiteboard environment.
Choose InfinitiCanvas when
You want a narrower Windows tool, an expansive pan-and-zoom canvas, quick lesson pages and a product deliberately stripped back for live online instruction.
