Workvivo by Zoom vs HumHub hosted by CUZY

A Workvivo alternative with a published price

Workvivo, owned by Zoom, sells an enterprise employee experience platform on quote, per licence. HumHub hosted by CUZY offers the social intranet an organization actually uses every day at a price printed on the pricing page, with unlimited members and no dependency on one vendor.

What Workvivo is

Workvivo is a proprietary employee experience platform (news feed, recognition, events, podcasts, people intelligence) sold to mid-size and large enterprises by Workvivo by Zoom Limited. Pricing is by licence and on quote; single sign-on, APIs and custom branding are part of the offer.

Facts about Workvivo come from the vendor's own pages, checked in September 2026: Workvivo pricing, Workvivo security, Workvivo help center: Microsoft Entra ID single sign-on. Prices are those published by the vendor (US dollars); they may have changed since. Tell us about an error on the contact page and we correct it.

What HumHub hosted by CUZY is

An open-source social network and intranet platform (spaces, streams, wiki, files, calendar, tasks, polls, messaging, member directory, mobile app), extended by the HumHub marketplace and by every CUZY module, hosted by CUZY on dedicated servers in the region you choose, with a flat price and unlimited members.

Where CUZY is the stronger choice

A price you can read before the call

Team €90 and Business €450 a month, unlimited members, two months free on yearly billing. No licence count, no quote.

Not owned by a video-conferencing company

HumHub is developed by an independent German company and CUZY is an independent partner; the code is open source, so no acquisition can take the platform away from you.

Data where your works council expects it

Germany (EU) by default, or the USA or Singapore (APAC), on dedicated servers with a processor agreement and a published security page.

The marketplace on every plan

Both platforms offer single sign-on with Entra ID or Google. CUZY adds the whole HumHub marketplace from the trial onward: mass notifications, surveys, maps, LMS, eCommerce and hundreds more.

Everything exportable, always

Download the database and files once a day and run the same intranet yourself or at HumHub.

Where Workvivo fits better

Workvivo is the better fit for a large enterprise already standardized on Zoom that wants recognition programs, podcasts, digital signage and people analytics delivered by a vendor with an enterprise sales and success organization.
