NVivo Collaboration Cloud – for global collaboration

Collaborating with other researchers – no matter where they work from (worldwide) – should be easy. NVivo Collaboration Cloud is an add-on module and ideal for teams with up to five users. Each team member requires a valid NVivo license to be invited to NVivo collaboration projects. This module enables the secure exchange of research data in a cloud-based environment.

Streamline collaboration
When working with NVivo Collaboration, you can bring together the right people to collect the best research results into a central project file. For teams distributed around the world collaborating on research projects, the Collaboration Cloud module enables research from multiple locations.

Using the latest version of NVivo 14 and Collaboration Cloud, multiple people can work on a cloud project at the same time to update, code and analyze research results in real time. Projects are uploaded to a secure location in the cloud by the project manager (“Project Owner”), then team members are added and clone the cloud project to their computers from where they can work on it.

Cooperation between Windows and Mac
By syncing projects between Mac and Windows, the latest version NVivo 14 and Collaboration Cloud eliminates the file conversion process. NVivo 14 and NVivo Collaboration Cloud allow users to open projects on Mac and Windows. 

Secure central location
With NVivo and Collaboration Cloud, you can easily share shared projects with your team. Master projects are stored by the cloud “Project Owner” and are accessible to team members from anywhere in the world.

Work offline
With NVivo 14, project data from a Collaboration Cloud project can also be edited offline and then synchronized. If team members are working on the project offline, the cloud project will be synchronized as soon as they have an internet connection. 

NOTE In this initial release of NVivo 14, only Windows users can create a project and upload it to the cloud. Mac users can only clone projects that Windows users create and can only collaborate on the project. In this release, project owners can only work from NVivo for Windows.

NOTE Project owners must use the same email address they used when purchasing Collaboration Cloud when logging into NVivo 14.

NVivo Collaboration Server – for locally stored data

NVivo Collaboration Server – for locally stored data

For large teams working in a central location like a lab or research center, fast and secure access to large amounts of data is essential. Working on a single server provides additional security and efficiency. With NVivo Collaboration Server, you can easily collaborate with your on-site team to gain greater insights. A local installation in your IT environment provides secure, centralized data storage and backup while allowing team members to work on projects in real time.
