HumHub is a social networking and collaboration platform designed for organisations that want to bring their communications, knowledge sharing and teamwork together in one place. It can be used to create an enterprise intranet, an online community or a private network for schools, associations and public institutions.
The platform centres on people, Spaces, content and modules. Spaces provide dedicated environments for individual teams, departments, projects or communities, while personal profiles and activity streams help members communicate and follow developments across the organisation.
HumHub is available as a Community Edition alongside commercial editions offering additional functionality and support. The software is written in PHP and provides extensive configuration options for administrators.
This is free and open source software.
