November 17th, 2009

Online collaboration company Huddle.net just added a bit of muscle to its offerings. The company recently signed a deal with RHUB Communications which will enhance its ability to interact with customers. Huddle will incorporate the flexibility of RHUB’s Turbomeeting into its already formidable networking platform.

Alistair Mitchell Huddle’s co-founder and CEO was quoted as saying of the pairing, “The addition of TurboMeeting technologies to our platform strengthens Huddle’s position as a single place online that offers all the necessary tools to get stuff done, where teams can work effectively across all boundaries.” Basically, Huddle will now offer its customers the ability to interact with the company in real time.

The major plus for the company, or any other that should decide to strike such a deal, is that they can be in touch with customers like never before. They can have immediate feedback on services and respond quickly to customer queries or concerns. Huddle’s timing could not have been better. RHUB only just recently released the newest version of its Turbomeeting software. With enhanced video and collaboration capabilities, it is easy to see why it is a perfect fit for any company.
