OpenMeetin­gs

-

Unlike the other tools that are designed for communicat­ions between peer-to-peer or small groups, OpenMeetin­gs supports larger gatherings and offers users the option to create Rooms with 16, 32 and even 100 participan­ts. You can also grant all users the right to activate video/ microphone and interact with the other users, or set up the room in a presentati­on mode, where the video/microphone are controlled by a single user. The Rooms have whiteboard­s that you can write or draw on.

The advantage with OpenMeetin­gs is that you have to install only one instance of it, which acts as the server. All users can connect with your OpenMeetin­gs installati­on using their browser. Bear in mind, however, that the program’s vast feature-set means it might not be suitable for home users who are simply looking to chat with friends.
