From its April 2009 launch, Woobius* has been looking to differentiate itself from competitors by virtue of its simplicity (see posts 1, 2). It still believes this is the right approach (albeit less overtly) and while most of its Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) construction collaboration competitors, UK and overseas, still employ conventional sales and deployment consultants, Woobius has …

Corecon goes mobile too
In May 2010, I wrote about the launch of Corecon V7 in the US market. Like several other construction collaboration software vendors this year (some already launched – eg: Asite’s cMob, Unit4 – some impending – eg: CTSpace, Aconex), Corecon has just released a mobile product tailored for use on smartphones and tablet computers (see …

Aconex (UK) Ltd – revenues down in 2009
Almost exactly a year ago, I looked at Aconex (UK) Ltd and noted that the British operation of the Melbourne, Australia-based construction collaboration technology vendor was on the upturn. Twelve months later, the UK recession appears to have had an impact, knocking revenues down by nearly 11 per cent. The London-based subsidiary generated revenues in …

Asite’s Appbuilder and Platform-as-a-Service
UK-based construction collaboration software developer Asite is looking to emulate Salesforce‘s Force.com Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) offering by creating a platform to host construction-related applications built using its Appbuilder development framework. This is the latest development in the competitive world of construction collaboration technology, but is likely to be quickly emulated by Asite’s key rivals. Background Ten …

According to a news story picked up by my Google Alerts, the Sunderland, UK-based company has appointed Mohammad Irfaan as Vice-President, Middle …

Panama landmark project for Aconex
Yesterday I talked to Aconex‘s Dexter Bachelder (VP Americas) and Frank Carron (VP marketing) about a major deal that, for me, is a landmark in the adoption of web-based construction collaboration technologies. Australia-based vendor Aconex announced yesterday (see news release) that it had been selected to provide collaboration support services to the US$3.2 billion Panama …

Asite reports 18 months to June 2009
Late last month I downloaded the latest annual report and audited accounts filed at Companies House by UK-based construction collaboration technology vendor Asite. Regular readers may recall that Asite reported some unaudited figures in January (see Asite reaches profitability), covering the year to 31 December 2009. This latest Companies House filing, signed off on 16 …
