HumHub

HumHub is an open-source, modular platform for building an internal social network, intranet, or community site. It combines profiles, group spaces, and a stream-based activity feed to help teams share information and collaborate.

Key Features

• User profiles with configurable fields, roles, and permissions
• Spaces (groups/subgroups) for departments, projects, and communities
• Activity stream, notifications, and configurable email summaries
• Content creation and collaboration (posts, comments, and optional modules such as wiki, tasks, polls, calendar, files)
• Module marketplace with many optional extensions (including REST API, LDAP integration, SSO options, theming)
• Search and filtering across content, spaces, and members
• Responsive web UI and multilingual support

Use Cases

• Company intranet for announcements, internal communication, and document sharing
• Community platform for associations, schools, clubs, or municipalities
• Team collaboration hub with project-based spaces, tasks, calendars, and knowledge pages

Limitations and Considerations

• Many capabilities (wiki, tasks, advanced search, SSO options) depend on enabling and maintaining additional modules

HumHub is a flexible choice for organizations that want an extensible social intranet with strong group-based structure. Its modular approach makes it possible to start simple and add features as needs grow.
