Why Simpplr is ahead of the rest

When choosing an intranet solution, organizations need more than just technology — they need a partner who understands their challenges and produces real results. Our platform is designed to solve the day-to-day challenges faced by HR, IT, and Internal Communication teams.

Simpplr stands out by combining AI innovation, exceptional customer experience, and platform capabilities built for today’s distributed workforce. 

Here’s how we address the critical areas that matter most to our customers and why we continue to lead in the intranet space:

AI innovation that fuels productivity

Simpplr’s AI fundamentally changes how employees get work done. Our Employee Experience (EX) Agent automates multistep tasks, connects directly to HR and IT systems, and deflects repetitive tickets that would otherwise burden support teams. Employees stay focused and informed while routine tasks are handled behind the scenes.

Enterprise search delivers outcomes that competitors can’t match. It uses advanced natural language processing to understand true intent — not just keywords — providing intelligent answers that pull information from SharePoint, ServiceNow, Google Drive, and dozens of other connected systems. Instead of just getting static answers, employees receive intelligent guidance, suggested actions, and next steps that lead to task completion.

Together, Simpplr’s EX Agent and Enterprise Search transform the intranet into a system of action. The technologies reduce coordination time, cut support costs, and continuously adapt to each employee’s role and context. 

AI is woven throughout the platform, continuously learning and adapting content to each employee’s role, department, and work patterns, delivering increasingly personalized results. By turning questions into intelligent next steps, Simpplr AI helps teams move faster with less effort.

Advanced features that work out of the box

Simpplr delivers powerful intranet capabilities without the complexity that drains IT resources. The platform is built for speed and scale, offering a broad suite of native employee experience tools and more than 200 integrations that eliminate the burden of heavy custom builds.

Our extensible app tiles technology allows organizations to create custom dashboard widgets that pull live data from their existing business systems. IT teams can build mini-applications without complex coding, giving employees direct access to HR data, project updates, and other business information — right from their intranet.

Simpplr consistently earns praise from IT teams like CrowdStrike who value the time saved so they can focus on strategic priorities. The platform delivers sophisticated capabilities without adding to their workload, as well as enterprise-grade security aligned with industry standards and regulations including SOC 2, GDPR, TRUSTe, and HIPAA.

Built for teams that span offices, homes, and frontlines

Most intranets were designed for desk workers in corporate offices. Simpplr was built for the reality of today’s workforce where teams include remote employees, hybrid workers, and frontline staff who might rarely touch a computer.

Our integrated collaboration and messaging capabilities ensure everyone stays connected regardless of where or how they work. Frontline workers get the same access to company updates, resources, and peer connections as their office-based colleagues. The platform adapts to different work styles rather than forcing everyone into the same digital box.

Whether someone works in a factory, hospital, retail store, or home office, they get relevant information delivered in their preferred format and timing. Mobile-first design ensures frontline workers can access training materials, receive company updates through SMS and push notifications and connect with colleagues across locations. 

Features like Do Not Disturb mode, instant messaging, AV calling, and geofenced notifications replace unofficial workarounds and deliver secure, real-time communication. The technology results in a unified workforce where no one gets left behind.

Intuitive content management for communicators

Unlike other intranet platforms that require technical expertise, Simpplr’s intuitive interface and user-friendly editing tools are simple enough for anyone to use — whether they’re a seasoned communicator or a first-time content creator.

Customers have told us the platform’s prebuilt templates and intuitive editing tools made it easy for teams across the organization to create and maintain their own content. These capabilities allowed the Internal Communication team to shift their focus from fielding content requests to crafting impactful messaging that drives engagement. 

The platform’s automated content governance freed them from follow-ups, ensuring content stayed up-to-date, useful, and on-brand. Our unparalleled prescriptive and predictive analytics gave them immediate snapshots of employee sentiment and employee engagement.

Exceptional customer experience at every step

At Simpplr, we’ve built a flexible and customer-focused approach to ensure organizations of all sizes get the right solution for their needs. Customers often tell us that Simpplr feels less like a vendor and more like a partner. From the start, our team works to understand their unique goals, helping them align their intranet strategy with broader business priorities. 

Simpplr won the 2025 Silver Stevie Award for Sales and Customer Service for transforming our customer service approach: Resolution times improved by 40% and customer satisfaction scores consistently reach 99%, with service level performance at 98%.

Customer support doesn’t stop after deployment. With a robust network of technology providers and global systems integrators, organizations feel supported as their intranet evolves. The result is a platform that scales with their business and delivers results from the start — giving teams confidence in their decision and peace of mind for the future.

With trusted AI capabilities, intelligent orchestration, and seamless integration across systems, Simpplr sets the standard for modern employee experience platforms.
