About Horde Groupware

Horde is a community-maintained groupware suite that you run on your own server. It includes webmail, a calendar, contacts, tasks, notes and time tracking. The suite has been used by organisations for over two decades and has a responsive web interface.

CalDAV, CardDAV and ActiveSync let desktop, mobile and other standards-based clients sync with it. The applications are built from independent PHP libraries that developers can reuse. Development is active, with dozens of component releases in the last 90 days.

  • CalDAV, CardDAV and ActiveSync sync
  • Community project with active releases
  • Public demo available

Limitations

  • Requires running and maintaining a PHP server
