A question we get often is: “How do I pick the right whiteboard for my space and presentation needs?” Following are a few key issues to consider before ordering a whiteboard: Budget vs. Quality, Intended Use, and Location.
First – Budget vs. Quality: There are many different whiteboard brands with varying quality and prices. There are so many options that purchasing on price often strongly influences the decision making process. It’s important to know that while whiteboards may look similar, when you start to compare surfaces and other board materials, the decision should become a balance of price and quality. The surface material can affect the durability, ease of cleaning, and overall quality of the board. If you plan to use the whiteboard for frequent writing and erasing, you may want to choose a more durable surface material like that offered by EVERWhite, which offers a lifetime guaranteed surface. You can purchase a low-cost board, but chances are you will have to replace it in a few years, and repeat that purchase on and on. EVERWhite also offers a budget-conscious option in the form of a resurfacing panel that can be quickly and easily adhered to an existing whiteboard or chalkboard at a fraction of the cost of a new whiteboard.
