Frequently Asked Questions
Here you can find answers to frequently asked questions about i‑net CoWork. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact us. Our support team is available during business hours to answer your questions and help you solve any problems.
- Does every user have to install an application on their PC? No, i‑net CoWork only needs to be installed on a server. Using the latest browser, any user can join without additional installation. Also: there is no user limitation.
- Why is there no button for calls in channels? Calls (voice, video, screen sharing) only work if the server is accessed through a valid HTTPS connection. Furthermore, make sure that the plugin “CoWork Calls” is installed and activated in the Store.
- Are there any restrictions on the number of participants in a video conference? The number of participants is not determined by a fixed limit, but by the performance of the central server and the individual download bandwidth of the users. i‑net CoWork relies on a central SFU architecture that enables efficient transmission of video and audio. If one participant has a poor connection, the quality of the transmission is automatically adjusted to ensure stable communication for everyone.
- Can I test i‑net CoWork extensively before purchasing a license? Yes! During the initial setup after installing i‑net CoWork, a trial license is created by our license server. This has a validity of 90 days and provides enough time to extensively test all functions, even in larger organizations.
- Do I need another license if I have already licensed another i‑net software product? If you have another i‑net software product with a valid license, you can install the text chat feature of i‑net CoWork from the Store and use it at no additional cost. Only additional features, such as voice and video chat, require an additional i‑net CoWork feature license.
