Pros: everything is integrated since it was designed as a single solution
Cons: The one area where we found HyperOffice came up short was the lack of web conferencing and online authoring capabilities
Do not purchase HyperOffice for a Mac Environment
Review for HyperOffice Online Business Collaboration by Joe on 2011-12-22
Quite simply, Hyperoffice does not function in a Mac environment. We've spent almost a year and a half of a three-year contract (prepaid in full to get a discounted rate) attempting to get the promised functionalities working. Many if not most were never achieved. In retrospect, we are now out several thousand dollars, together with the value of countless hours lost in frustration, attempting to run an efficient business. Support personnel were well intentioned, but clearly could not follow through on promises made by the sales side. There has never been any admission of responsibility for the shortcomings of the product or our resulting losses. All efforts at reaching a reasonable resolution to get some of our money back were met with a stunning and total silence.

Pros: Promised functionalities sounded great
Cons: Could not deliver promised functionalities in a mixed Mac-PC environment.
Review Context: We are a small consulting firm utilizing a number of geographically distant staff. We had hoped to utilize Hyperoffice for its promised collaboration tools.
HyperOffice is a bargain
Review for HyperOffice Online Business Collaboration by slittle on 2010-12-22
HyperOffice has proved to be a very useful tool for users who typically don’t have much IT expertise. We chose HyperOffice because we liked the fact that we got multiple tools in a single solution – shared documents, project management, calendars, wikis, contacts, forums etc. Our company uses the calendar to communicate employee vacation times and travel schedules. We also use the company news feature on the portal page for announcements and policy developments. This is especially useful being that we are a solar and renewable energy company with many locations and employees working out of home offices. Overall, I have also been pleased with their support services. The support staff is prompt and helpful in looking at your problems and considering your feedback. We are currently testing their new version and features such as improved page layout design and user management interfaces.

Good for office productivity
Review for HyperOffice Online Business Collaboration by bpenny on 2010-11-09
As an accounting & business consultancy with clients across Canada & US, I wanted to share data & communicate with teams & clients - a secure web solution to replace our costly network server software. I chose HyperOffice after the free trial for its many features, strong support during implementation & free training. The 2 years using it have been fruitful. Infact, I did a casestudy about how HyperOffice helped a non-profit client reduce overheads by going virtual & prevented their closure. If you know intranets & portals, this best describes HyperOffice, minus the huge cost & IT overhead.

Pros: - the ability to create and customize web-spaces for me and my clients - the ability to share documents and not depend on email - tasks - the ability to overlay calendars - outlook synchronization - a polite and responsive support team
Cons: Be prepared to learn the system & invest time in setting the structure up & developing common procedures for continuity, which can be posted in shared documents.
Best Uses: I share private data with my clients through the group workspaces. Since we work on multiple projects, we use Tasks. I also use shared calendars & Outlook synching. I use a calendar for myself, staff, & clients & view them together or separately.
Review Context: I am the owner of Penny and Associates Inc. a leading outsourced accounting and business management firm for small businesses and not for profits located in Port Perry, Ontario. I am a HyperOffice user.
Lower cost web-based alternative to Sharepoint
Review for HyperOffice Online Business Collaboration by Mark Leaf on 2010-11-08
This is a good cloud-based collaboration tool. It has a very comprehensive set of features and the editor is quickly releasing improvement to the product. It is a good value alternative to Sharepoint. Trial account doesn't require credit-card data ;-)
