What press says
Opening customers’ doors
Huddle lets you set up the first workspace for free to try out the system and see if it suits your way of working. Most encouragingly – for those keen on seeing more “joined-up government” within Whitehall – officials at the Department for Business, Enterprise and Regulatory Reform used Huddle to co-ordinate its cross-government simplification of business support (which has led to the rationalisation of support schemes from more than 3,000 to 30 product lines and potential annual savings from the cut in associated bureaucracy of £1.4bn). The firm can clearly open customers’ doorsRichard Tyler, Daily Telegraph, 1November, 2008
New definition
I especially like the Huddle idea – being able to work collaboratively with my network. It gives a whole new definition to the question what are you working on?Conversation Agent, 4 November, 2008
I heart Huddle
“I heart Huddle. Forget Basecamp, try Huddle. We tried setting up a Basecamp account for our new SocialFish work, and it just wasn’t really cutting it, and I was a little irked with paying my $49 a month – then we discovered Huddle, which is a totally free project management site (free unless you need an enterprise version, unlike Basecamp where we had to pay just to get enough project space). It’s cleaner, simpler, just plain easier to use. And now, whoo hoo! They are a featured application on the new LinkedIn Apps. What does that mean? It means you can now share a workspace with your LinkedIn contacts. Nice one!Socialfishing, 1 November, 2008
Forget email attachments
Forget the days of sending around email attachments, as Huddle allows you to directly co-edit your documents and spreadsheets and keeps track of the changes made as a teamSearch Engine Journal, 31 October, 2008<cite
Huddle on LinkedIn – a missing link
For those of you with a LinkedIn profile (like myself), you can now add the Huddle Workspace ‘application’ to your profile. This offers you all of the great functionality that you get from Huddle – workspace management and collaboration, time management tools and the same great options for syncing between home/work/partners etc, but extends the support in to your LinkedIn social network. The Huddle app for LinkedIn has given me the chance to really start sharing stuff with other professionals in my field – not just direct colleagues, but anyone and everyone who I come into contact with and want to share work and ideas with. I can take some work I’ve been doing on a project, and share it with both the technology experts and the management types all on the same workspace, all through LinkedIn. The Open Bracket, 29 October, 2008
More interesting
Certainly the LinkedIn Answers was helpful at times, but never really seemed to sing. Using the Huddle app for private workspaces make it much more interesting. Community Guy, 29 October, 2008
Remarkable
The popular social network for professionals, Linkedln, has started to offer third party productivity application over its network. Other notable applications include Huddle.net’s remarkable Workspaces app that facilitates secure document collaboration. ITProPortal.com, 29 October, 2008
Simple gadget
Huddle.net’s Workspaces app (on LinkedIn) can be used by workers to collaborate on documents in a safe environment and using a simple gadget eFluxMedia, 29 October, 2008
Particularly interesting
Huddle Workspaces looks particularly interesting because it enables you to build online, secure, private workspaces where you can work with members of your network. This could allow users to set up LinkedIn networks or groups of fellow employees, then use Huddle to share and collaborate on project.Fierce Content Management October, 2008
Powerful combination
Huddle is an online collaboration tool providing secure online workspaces with powerful project and collaboration tools. Connecting your online workspace with your business contacts can be a powerful combination for your work or business.Amy Sample Ward’s version of NPTech, 29 October, 2008
Huddle: just right
We’ve been looking at various Web 2.0-ish collaboration tools that might make our life easier when working with clients on projects. DreamFactory was too sophisticated (…) you may as well stick with MS Project. Basecamp (…) was too simple, little better than just using basic Outlook Email and Google Docs. Huddle seemed just right. In particular its support for online editing of Word and Excel docs (using Zoho for extra Web 2.0 brownie points) in addition to offline editing was singled out for praise.Golden Pebbles, September 2008
Huddle: Best for sharing files
Huddle makes it easy to share and edit files. You can upload files into Huddle or create Word and Excel documents from scratch and edit them in the browser window.Inc., July 2008
Difficult to explain why Huddle’s so good
Huddle, unlike some other services we could mention, is a fully integrated online collaboration host which makes managing projects online with other users an absolute doddle. It’s difficult to explain exactly why it’s so good – there so many features, so you’ll just have to sign up for a free account and have nose about yourself.Pocket-lint, July 2008
Huddle makes collaborating with groups a very straightforward process
Unless you are the sort of person who relishes chasing people up and issuing relentless stream of reminders about forthcoming events then running a club or an organisation can be a thankless task. The bigger the group, the harder and more time consuming it can be to organise and control. To make matters worse there always members who deny all knowledge of ever having agreed to a task and who, even when they volunteer, need constant and vigilant badgering. This is where Huddle can help. Huddle is a new social-media network that makes collaborating with groups a very straightforward process.Web User, July 2008
More intuitive and easier to navigate than Basecamp
Huddle has a stronger sense of individual roles than Basecamp, and the user interface is slightly more intuitive and easier to navigate. It is priced slightly more competitively too.Real Business, June 2008
Why it will succeed
Huddle offers a very broad feature set. The service is gaining traction in the business world — clients include Edelman, Reuters, Jazeera Airways and UNICEF. For the equivalent of about $20 a month, a company gets 10 workspaces, 128 bit SSL security and unlimited users. The Standard, March 2008
Smart move
If you’re a Facebook user, you can install the Workspaces by Huddle application and start using your account there for something other than throwing sheep. Looks like a smart way to reach more potential users to me. WebWorkerDaily, February 2008
Spark demand
I’m rooting for the VCs from Bath in this one, which is leveraging social media to spark demand for its enterprise collaboration tool. The Deal/TechConfidential.com, February 2008
Most sophisticated collaboration solution
We’ve been fans of Huddle.net for some time now; its enterprise collaboration solution is one of the most sophisticated yet streamlined applications around. They’re upping the ante even more this week at DEMO with the first pure work tool for Facebook. In combination with Spanish-language integration, a desktop folder for drag-and-drop access to the Huddle.net site, and more consumer-friendly pricing, Huddle.net is poised to become the standard bearer for enterprise Web collaboration solutions.

Products that matter to VARs
On Huddle, users from disparate locales can build or join work spaces — called “huddles,” natch — for personal or professional projects. CRN, February 2008
For projects, let’s get in a huddle
Huddle has a well designed user interface, a straightforward virtual project room, excellent document version control, and “good enough” capabilities for collaboration and workflow. Combine that with competitive pricing, and it should definitely be high on your selection list. Blognation Enterprise, July 2007
Best web tools we’re using right now
A file-sharing, to-do list making, message-leaving, approval-asking collaboration tool. My favorite part is that you can ask someone on your team for approval. If that person edits your document, you can track the edits, as well as ensure that you get the approval (from your supervisor or even a client) that you need. In Bloom, July 2007
Very clever
It’s like having an online creative services assistant, which I think is very clever. Wannabe Adman, August 2007
