History
Before founding Hubstaff, Nevogt launched Innovative Solutions Inc. in McCordsville, Indiana, while Brown brought experience as a software developer.
With the expansion of freelance outsourcing through platforms such as Elance and oDesk, Hubstaff’s solution empowered startups and entrepreneurs to concentrate on strategic initiatives instead of day-to-day operational duties. The surge in web-based startups delegating operational roles externally created a greater need for tools managing freelance teams.
In 2015, Hubstaff earned a nomination for Best Tech Startup of the Year at the TechPoint Mira Awards.
In April 2020, The Wall Street Journal reported enhanced productivity levels among organizations utilizing Hubstaff’s platform. The subsequent month, co-founder Jared Brown appeared on NBC's The Today Show to discuss how Hubstaff assisted companies transitioning to remote work amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
