Having recently received a comment from Chris Brandt, CTO at conject, I thought it was high time that I took a more detailed look at this construction and real estate collaboration vendor. Based in Munich, Germany, but with operations across most of Europe, conject has gradually been expanding its international reach beyond Europe. It has …

New look for Sarcophagus
It has a new logo (left), the main website of Yorkshire, UK-based technology vendor Sarcophagus has recently been revamped, and the company has also started (very occasionally) using Twitter. However, the new logo hasn’t yet been applied across all the company’s products, including construction collaboration platform, the-project.co.uk, which still displays the old device (right). While …

Howdy, Howzee
At Be2camp@WorkingBuildings last month, I met Tuomas Saarelainen who told me to have a look at his Helsinki, Finland-based company Mobimus and its service howzee.info – which I have just done.

Coda2go + Salesforce strengthen SaaS Financials offer, but what about Business Collaborator?

Aconex UK jumps forward
The UK operation of Australia-based online construction collaboration technology vendor Aconex tended to lag behind its home-grown competitors, but in the past couple of years it appears the London office has made a great leap forward.
