Virbela Room & Scene Capacity Recommendations

This serves as information for room and scene capacity limitations of concurrent users within the Virbela software. If a room is not large enough to accommodate, simply add more rooms as overflow or additional spaces.

The recommended capacity is the suggested limit of concurrent users in a scene to maximize platform performance and make effective use of the space. Maximum capacity is the functional limitation of a scene before performance degradation could be experienced by users.

Note: Private Campus total concurrent user capacity varies by contract. Please contact your salesperson or account manager for more details.
