Huddle puts on users as Basecamp drops prices
by Mike Butcher
on April 24, 2008

An ‘enterprise 2.0′ price war is looming as the UK’s Huddle starts to creep up on the incumbent in the space, Basecamp. The former says it is “growing like crazy”, adding 50% more users in the last month, while the latter recently dropped its prices to remain competitive. However, at $24-$149 a month, Basecamp remains pricier than Huddle’s $20 to $100 a month price range and is still reminiscent of the original Web design project workflow is was designed for. Wrike is different to both in that it charge per user, rather than per project for $3.99 per person per month. Huddle is also providing file-sharing on its service for free, something Basecamp doesn’t yet do. Huddle came out of the gate to compete pretty much head on with Basecamp. In November last year Huddle announced $4m in series A funding from Eden Ventures in London. Companies using Huddle include Reuters and PR group Edelman and UNICEF.

    Thanks for the coverage Mike. As our users will already know, we’ve recently released functionality to allow the creation, viewing and editing of .doc and .xls files in the browser. This has traditionally been one of the weakest parts of any collaboration system’s workflow and we’re delighted with the feedback we’ve had from our users so far. There’s loads more really exciting stuff in the pipeline too so, ahem, watch this space.

    Any word on the grapevine as the whether 37 Signals are ever going to develop Basecamp more? It seems like a gross omission these days to have separate logins for separate projects.

    Mike, I’m not sure that this is accurate. I don’t think Basecamp have reduced their prices at all. They recently removed the $12/month plan, but the others have remained the same. So, if anything, it’s become more expensive, at least at the low end.
