HOWSPACE: AN ALTERNATIVE TO FUSE


What’s the difference between
Fuse and Howspace?

Fuse is a learning experience platform

As an LXP, Fuse supports organizations in delivering a wide variety of skills-first training programs and workflow-based, bite-sized learning geared toward individual employees and smaller teams and their performance enhancement within an organization.

This makes Fuse a great solution for organizations that need to quickly upskill and reskill employees and maintain organizational standards with less top-down management from administrators.

Howspace is a collaborative
learning platform

Like Fuse, you can also deliver employee training and development programs through Howspace. However, Howspace goes beyond the practical skill development that is usually delivered through a traditional LMS or LXP.

Howspace delivers learning truly embedded in the employees’ flow of work — combining social learning, collaboration and teamwork, and personal reflection, to help employees learn, make sense, and ultimately take action together. 

Howspace is a great fit for organizations such as

Corporate Companies

Consulting & Training Services

Associations & Trade Unions

Howspace is flexible and
adaptable

Instead of relying on content like an LMS — or an algorithm like an LXP — to help participants achieve their learning goals, Howspace is flexible, coming with powerful analytics tools that allow you to assess your programs and engagement in real-time.

So facilitators and L&D designers can see what’s going on, and adapt their programs to ensure everyone stays on track to achieving their learning outcomes.

See who is there and what’s going on

“With Howspace it’s so easy to set up a collaborative space where participants can rapidly see who is there and what’s going on. The powerful stats help you to determine where should you invest your attention, and when, in order to get the goals you have set up front.”

Paul N. review via G2

Howspace focuses on driving long-term change and results

Most learning programs are self-driven and happen in fixed platforms or live spaces “in the moment.” Howspace embeds collaborative learning in their day to day work — with a mixture of activities that people complete, and reflect on, together.

Because more social interaction and more touchpoints lead to greater impact, greater retention, and longer-lasting behavioral changes.

Fosters greater collaboration together

“From discussion forums and group collaborations to real-time polls and surveys, Howspace fosters an environment where learners can actively contribute, share ideas, and learn from one another. This emphasis on participation enhances knowledge retention and creates a sense of community and collaboration.”

Mehmet A, review via G2

Howspace scales programs without giving up active participation

Often traditional e-learning programs are built with limited participant input, especially as they scale. With interactive exercises, peer communities, and AI-powered collaboration tools, Howspace provides everything you need to build scalable, results-driven training and learning programs.

We would argue that the more people actively engaged in and contributing to the learning journey the more our platform shines!

“From the very first assessments of our first group of leaders, the feedback on the leadership growth path has been excellent. I also received feedback from a few participants that this was one of the best coaching events they ever experienced.

Howspace played a big role in this: it facilitated collaboration, united the whole, and supported the whole process of learning.”
