About Shareable Boards
Shareable Boards are boards that you can share with outside users (guests) such as contractors, clients, freelancers, lawyers, graphic designers, etc. It gives you the ability to collaborate on specific projects with your outside users without giving them access to your full account, making it helpful in keeping track of their progress and yours.

Why are they useful?
Similar to Private Boards, Shareable Boards can only be seen and used by their subscribers, whether those are company members or guests. The idea behind shareable boards is that you have the ability to also share projects with external guests without allowing access to the full account.
Your guests will only be able to see the shareable boards you are sharing with them and will not see any other boards. Below is an example of what a guest's account may look like:
