Open source intranet software

Hub for building an employee intranet and internal social network on HumHub, XWiki or Nextcloud, and how communication, identity and hosting needs differ by industry and scenario.

Open source intranet for the public sector

Intranets for ministries, agencies and municipalities: hosting in government infrastructure, accessibility and open standards, directory integration, how openDesk's portal relates to a standalone intranet, and procuring a supported edition.

Open source intranet for education

Staff and campus intranets for universities and school districts: spaces per faculty or school, single sign-on with campus identity, student and staff data protection, and running HumHub or XWiki alongside the LMS.

Open source intranet for healthcare

Intranets for hospitals and care groups: shift-based staff without desks, policies and clinical guidelines, keeping patient data out of social posts, and integrating with the hospital directory and existing document systems.

Open source intranet for energy and utilities

Intranets for utilities that must reinforce security awareness: using intranet posts as evidence of NERC CIP-004 quarterly reinforcement, keeping BES Cyber System Information off broad spaces, and hosting inside corporate IT.

Intranet for EU data sovereignty

Keeping employee communications and profiles under EU jurisdiction: self-hosting HumHub or XWiki, HumHub's EU SaaS hosting option, GDPR handling of employee data and works council expectations.

Intranet in air-gapped networks

An intranet for classified or disconnected networks: offline installation and module updates, internal directory integration, no external embeds or push services, and content moderation inside the enclave.

Intranet software requirements checklist

Requirements to settle before choosing an open-source intranet: audiences and spaces, directory and SSO, mobile access, news and moderation, document and wiki integration, search, hosting and support.

Intranet software RFP questions

Questions for a partner implementing HumHub, XWiki or Nextcloud as an intranet: edition needed for LDAP and SAML, content migration, theming, mobile rollout, adoption plan, upgrade cadence and support.

Intranet software cost: build, partner or SaaS

What a self-hosted intranet costs: hosting, Professional Edition or XWiki Pro subscriptions, onboarding and theming, content migration, ongoing moderation effort, and comparison with per-user SaaS intranets.
