HumHub is an open-source intranet and community software platform designed to bring organizations together to communicate, collaborate, and share knowledge on a system built to fit their exact needs.

The main features of this platform include:

• The Four Core Pillars:

  • People: Every user in the organization gets their own profile, which acts as a personalized home base for their activity, connections, and content. Depending on their role, users can post, comment, and collaborate.

  • Spaces: These are dedicated, secure areas within the network for teams, departments, locations, or projects. Each Space maintains its own specific members, content, and permissions.

  • Content: Teams can create and share a wide variety of information in one place, including posts, articles, surveys, wiki pages, image galleries, and files.

  • Modules: The platform is highly configurable and can be extended using over 80 optional marketplace modules. Examples include News for announcements, Messenger for private chats, Calendars, SAML-SSO, Advanced LDAP, and collaborative office suites like OnlyOffice or Collabora Online.

• Flexible Hosting & Privacy: HumHub is GDPR-compliant and gives organizations the choice of deploying the platform in a cloud-hosted SaaS environment or as a self-hosted On-Premise installation. It is available in Community, Professional, and Enterprise editions.

• Granular Multi-Level Permissions: Administrators can secure their workspaces by assigning highly specific roles to users, such as Administrator, Moderator, Editor, or read-only access.

• Personalized Feeds & Customizable Alerts: Every member gets a personalized dashboard featuring a live activity stream compiled from their connected Spaces. Users can also customize their notification preferences and email digest frequencies.

• Advanced Full-Text Search: The platform features a search engine equipped with filters to help users instantly locate specific posts, Spaces, users, or files.

• Real-Time Collaborative File Management: Files can be organized in nested folders, grouped into galleries, and edited collaboratively in real time.

• Social & Mobile Native Experience: Users can interact dynamically by liking, commenting, reacting, sending direct messages, or following their colleagues. The entire platform is fully responsive, ensuring a seamless experience across all screen sizes and mobile devices.
