Looking for a Teams intranet alternative?
Involv intranet gives Microsoft Teams what it's missing: a branded home page, governed content and a mobile app of your own, natively connected to Teams so nothing changes for the way your team already works. Live within your own Microsoft 365 tenant in weeks.
Teams, SharePoint and intranet: what's the difference?
Microsoft Teams is built around conversations: chat, channels and meetings. SharePoint provides pages, files and structure: news, policies and document management. Involv intranet brings the two together in one central, user-friendly hub, with clear navigation, personalization and content governance, natively reachable from inside Teams.
Where Teams alone falls short
Why isn't Teams enough on its own?
It's 9am. An urgent update lands in a busy Teams channel, and by lunch half the team has already scrolled past it. Teams wasn't built to be your company's front door.
Company news gets lost in chat
An announcement in a busy channel is gone within minutes. There's no way to see who actually read it.
Policies and documents are hard to find
Teams search covers conversations, not a governed set of company policies, forms and procedures.
IT keeps fielding "where do I find…"
Without a structured home for company-wide information, the same questions keep landing on IT's desk.
Teams doesn't carry your brand
Customization is limited, so the one tool every employee opens daily doesn't look or feel like your company.
Involv intranet is built to close exactly this gap, without asking anyone to leave Teams.
Everything Teams does well, plus everything it's missing
Involv intranet is natively integrated with Microsoft Teams. Company news, search and notifications appear right where your team already works, so switching to Involv adds a governed, branded intranet layer without replacing Teams or asking anyone to change habits.
- Company news and notifications inside Teams, no extra app to open
- One search across intranet content, policies and people
- Works inside your existing Microsoft 365 tenant

Your intranet takes on the full look and feel of your organisation, just like your public website. You decide which features take centre stage, tailored to what really matters to your people.
- Your logo, colours and branding everywhere, even in the mobile app
- The same look and feel as your public website
- Built with the components that matter to you

Teams vs. intranet: the questions we hear most
Does Involv replace Microsoft Teams?
No. Involv intranet works alongside Teams and is natively integrated with it. Teams stays your tool for chat and meetings; Involv adds the branded home, governed content and structured navigation Teams was never built to provide.
We already have Teams and SharePoint. Why add anything?
Teams and SharePoint each do one job well: conversation, or pages and files. Involv intranet brings both together in a single, user-friendly hub with clear navigation and content governance, so employees have one place to go instead of three.
Where does our data stay?
All data stays in your own Microsoft 365 tenant. Involv doesn't store anything outside your environment.
Do employees need to leave Teams to use the intranet?
No. Company news, search and intranet resources are visible and usable from inside Teams itself. Employees keep working in one place.
How fast can we get started?
Involv intranet comes with best-in-class functionality out of the box, so setup is fast. Most organizations have a working intranet live within weeks, connected to their existing Microsoft 365 tenant.
