Openmeetings

The software delivers a web‑based suite of groupware tools that include HTML5 video and audio conferencing, instant messaging, multi‑whiteboard drawing, collaborative document editing, and file sharing. It integrates with a media server for real‑time streaming and provides features such as meeting recording, screen sharing, integrated calendar scheduling, polls, and private messaging. An API (REST and SOAP) enables embedding the functionality into other sites, while LDAP/ADS connectors and VoIP/Asterisk modules support enterprise authentication and telephony.

It is intended for organizations, educational institutions, or any teams that need a self‑hosted platform for online meetings and collaborative work without relying on external services. Users can create and manage rooms, invite participants, and store shared files in per‑room or personal drives. Administrators have tools for moderating sessions, configuring security, and handling backups.

The project is released under the Apache‑2.0 license, is free of subscription fees, and runs on Java 21 with the Kurento media server. It is actively maintained, with recent releases adding a dark theme, updated UI libraries, and security fixes, and it supports both REST and SOAP integration points.
