Team Cloud

MAXQDA is a single-user program that does not allow several people to access the same project file at the same time.simultaneously. With the help of TeamCloud, severalmultiple peopleusers can work on local copies of a MAXQDA project file on their individual computers simultaneously. Using TeamCloud, they can easily exchange their analysis progress via the internet and merge their projects into a main MAXQDA project file. The principle of collaboration with TeamCloud is simple to explain:

  1.  The team lead opens or creates a normal MAXQDA project file, starts the first project cycle, invites team members, and makes the team project available to the members via TeamCloud.

  2. The members download the project, work on it, code the assigned data, and upload the project back to TeamCloud.

  3. The team lead imports the members’ projects into its own project. This lead’s project is the main project, where all analyses, new documents, new codes, etc., are merged.

  4. If necessary, the team lead can start the next teamwork cycle now, whereby the team lead makes the updated main project available to all members via TeamCloud again.

Using Team Cloud

This process is spelled out in much more detail in the MAXQDA Manual 

  1. Have a MAXQDA license and active software. When using TeamCloud, there are two roles: one project lead and team members

    We need to distinguish two roles when using TeamCloud: per TeamCloud project there is one team lead (Maria) and by default up to four team members. Only the project lead needs a paid TeamCloud license in addition to the MAXQDA license, thelicense; project members only need a MAXQDA license.

    2. What to Do

    This process is spelled out in much more detail in the MAXQDA Manual
