Involv Intranet: The Digital Employee Experience Platform (DEX)

Introduction

We all know what a good workday feels like: you open your laptop and immediately have a clear overview. You find the information you need without searching, you feel connected to your colleagues – even if they’re not sitting next to you – and you can focus on what truly matters.

But in reality, that digital workplace is often still a maze of different apps and scattered messages. That’s exactly where the shift to a Digital Employee Experience platform (DEX) comes in. With Involv Intranet, we don’t build a static source of information, but a place where employees feel supported and heard.

What is a Digital Employee Experience platform exactly?

The term may sound technical, but it’s actually very simple: it’s about the experience your employees have with the technology within your organization. Does it support them or does it work against them?

Where a traditional intranet was often only meant to broadcast news, a platform like Involv Intranet goes a step further. It’s the place where technology and humanity come together. It’s about the total experience: from seamless Microsoft 365 integration to the way we celebrate successes together. The goal of Involv? A workday without digital obstacles, so everyone can enjoy their work more.

Why is DEX more important than ever?

In the past, an employee’s ‘experience’ was based on the office, the ergonomic chair and the quality of the coffee. Today, the digital work environment is where we spend most of our time. If that environment is slow, complicated or impersonal, employees leave more quickly. A strong DEX platform ensures that technology becomes a tool, not a barrier.

Investing in the digital experience of your people isn’t just ‘nice’, it also delivers real results:

• Higher productivity: Less searching means more doing.
• Lower turnover: Employees who feel connected and can do their work easily stay with the organization longer.
• Better software adoption: Because Involv Intranet is so simple, people will also use the rest of your Microsoft 365 suite more effectively.

Three advantages of Involv Intranet as your digital foundation

To understand why Involv Intranet goes beyond a standard portal, we look at the three pillars of a strong digital experience:

1. Accessibility (Mobile First): A true Digital Employee Experience doesn’t stop at the desktop. With the Involv Intranet mobile app, you also reach employees who don’t sit behind a desk, such as people in production or healthcare.
2. Personalization: Nothing is more damaging to the experience than an overload of irrelevant information. We ensure that a marketing employee sees different content than an IT specialist.
3. Speed and Intuition: A DEX platform must work faster than legacy systems. Because we fully integrate with the tools you already use, Involv Intranet feels instantly familiar.

Calm and focus in your digital workday

Many teams today suffer from ‘app stress’. You use Teams for chat, SharePoint for your files and maybe several separate tools for HR matters or planning. The result? You spend half your time searching for the right place to do something.

Involv Intranet brings that calm back. It acts as a central starting point that works seamlessly with all your Microsoft tools. Because everything comes together in one place, employees don’t have to constantly switch between tabs. That leads to less frustration and more space to truly work well.

Real connection, even remotely

Strong employee engagement doesn’t come from sending emails alone. People want to feel part of something bigger, especially now that we work in hybrid settings more often. Involv Intranet helps strengthen those connections:

• Information that matters: Employees only see news relevant to their role or location. No more unnecessary noise.
• Celebrating successes together: Through Involv Intranet, you can easily respond to colleagues’ updates, celebrate birthdays or welcome new team members.
• Room for feedback: With practical polls and short surveys, you show that your team’s opinion matters.

Ready for a better way of working

Improving your internal communication isn’t a luxury; it’s simply necessary to keep your team happy and productive. By choosing a full Digital Employee Experience platform like Involv Intranet, you show that the daily experience of your people comes first.

When technology works for you instead of against you, more energy remains for creativity and collaboration. And that’s ultimately what makes every company stronger.
