Differences between KolayMeeting and KolayMeeting
KolayMeeting is the commercial application running on app.kolaymeeting.com. It’s free to sign up and battle-tested with millions of monthly bookings by large organizations. KolayMeeting is the new open source community edition which was spun out of KolayMeeting. Like any diy project, KolayMeeting, Inc. does not guarantee security and safety of the open source project. KolayMeeting is community maintained and strictly recommended for personal, non-production use. Please use at your own risk.
For any commercial usage, please visit KolayMeeting or request enterprise access to our on-prem hosting: https://kolaymeeting.com/sales .
