VentureBeat: Huddle, another online collaboration software system for businesses

  • Pran Kurup · 2 years ago
    I think this is a very interesting space with a lot of potential. Despite Google's reach how many people really use Google docs? Besides, how many use it in ways other than they use MS-Office? Not many, would be my guess.

    This space is getting crowded with new vendors popping up every day, yet with no market leader, so it might be possible for someone to break out of the pack. When we were searching for collaboration solutions we looked at a bunch.

    We did a deep dive on www.basecamp.com as well as www.centraldesktop.com . Both products are pretty well thought out and generally intuitive.

    I guess that it will take time for the majority of people to switch to web apps and get rid of MS office. But it will happen, I'm positive about this. The only thing is which web apps would survive. I'm not sure huddle will be one of the survivors. There are stronger players, such as www.wrike.com e.g., in the market.

    I think knowing your target market and creating a community out of that is very important. Its the service that is more important than the software. We launched Deskaway.com last year - first on-demand pm app from India. You gotta ask - whats different and why would people use my app and not theirs.

    Well, Huddle, Basecamp and Wrike are just too simplistic for the matter, and weak on integrations, like all online services of this kind. Check out the wikipedia list http://http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_pro...
    for real solutions.

    More technical details about Huddle would've been helpful. It sounds from this post that it's more of a document management tool and less of a PM/collaboration tool. @Mark, I totally agree with you, what said 2 years ago is now even worse. There are literally over a hundred of such tools, and as you said, with not clear leader. - http://www.pmhut.com
