Hava: Open-Source Video Conferencing for Teams

Secure video meetings, screen sharing, messaging, and collaboration features for teams with an open-source alternative to Zoom and Microsoft Teams

What is Hava?

Hava is an open-source, self-hosted video conferencing and online meeting solution similar to Zoom or Microsoft Teams. It allows organizations and teams to host their own private and secure video meetings, webinars, conference calls, and other online collaboration sessions.

Some key features of Hava include:

• HD video and audio conferencing for meetings with up to 100 participants
• Screen sharing for presentations, documents, or any app on your device
• Messaging and chat rooms for communication
• Virtual whiteboard for ideation and brainstorming
• Polls, Q&A, raise hands, and other interactive tools
• Secure infrastructure with end-to-end encryption
• Custom branding, theming of interfaces
• Integration with popular calendars and productivity tools
• Compatible across devices - PC, Mac, Linux, iOS and Android

As an open-source platform, Hava provides greater control over security and privacy compared to proprietary solutions. Organizations can host Hava on their own servers or cloud infrastructure to retain ownership of meeting data. This makes it suitable for companies with strict data governance policies.

The self-hosted model also helps lower total cost of ownership by avoiding recurring licensing or subscription fees. Hava follows a transparent development process for improvements and new features based on community feedback.
