Involv intranet vs Fresh intranet
Why organisations choose Involv over Fresh intranet.
Fresh intranet offers a visually appealing SharePoint layer, but lacks the strategic guidance and local expertise that make the real difference. Involv intranet combines proven technology with personal support – so your intranet doesn’t just go live, but actually gets used.
⚡ Faster results with a proven intranet structure
Where Fresh intranet primarily delivers a technical foundation, Involv intranet starts from a proven structure with pre-built components and a clear implementation methodology. Organisations extract value from their intranet project faster – without endless configuration.
🎯 Built for adoption. Not just for launch.
Many intranets go live but are rarely used afterwards. Involv intranet is designed to drive daily usage, with personalised content, clear navigation and seamless integration with Microsoft 365 tools such as Teams. Fresh intranet focuses heavily on the technical platform, but less on strategic adoption.
🏢 Advanced personalisation and content targeting
Involv intranet offers advanced content targeting per audience, personalised navigation and smart content distribution. Where Fresh intranet provides a clean design but is more limited in personalisation, Involv ensures every employee sees the right information at the right time.
🇧🇪 Local expertise in the Benelux
Fresh intranet is primarily focused on the English-speaking market. Involv intranet offers Dutch-language support, local knowledge of the Benelux context and a team that knows the challenges of Belgian and Dutch organisations from experience. No language barrier, no cultural gap.
🤝 Strategic guidance from A to Z
With Fresh intranet, you often work with an external implementation partner for strategy and adoption. With Involv intranet, you get direct guidance from specialists in internal communications and Microsoft 365. From information architecture to go-live and optimisation – we think along with you and continue to support you.
💰 Strong price-to-value with no surprises
ClearBox highlights that Involv intranet offers extensive functionality at a competitive price. Where Fresh intranet often incurs higher total costs due to reliance on external partners for guidance and adoption, Involv offers a transparent model – technology and expertise in one package.
There is a reason why organisations switch to
Involv intranet.

Your questions about Fresh intranet vs Involv intranet, answered.
Both solutions are built on Microsoft 365, but there are important differences. Fresh intranet offers a visually appealing SharePoint layer with a strong focus on the technical platform. Involv intranet goes further by also focusing on strategic guidance, adoption and advanced personalization. The result: faster go-live, better adoption and an intranet that employees actually use on a daily basis.
Involv intranet. Communication teams can create pages, publish news and adjust the structure themselves without technical knowledge. With Fresh intranet, the focus is more on the technical platform, meaning changes and extensions are more often handled through an external implementation partner. With Involv intranet, you as a communication professional stay in control.
Involv intranet is designed with adoption as a core principle. Thanks to its intuitive interface, integration with Microsoft Teams and targeted guidance from experts, employees quickly embrace the intranet. Fresh intranet provides a strong technical foundation but offers less in-depth support around adoption and employee engagement. With Involv intranet, support doesn’t stop at go-live—we also help activate your employees afterward.
Yes. Involv intranet offers advanced content targeting per audience, personalized navigation and intelligent content distribution – ensuring each employee sees the right information at the right time. Fresh intranet delivers a clean design, but its capabilities for deep personalization are more limited.
Organizations choose Involv intranet when they want not only technology but also strategic guidance – from information architecture to adoption. Involv intranet also provides local Benelux expertise with Dutch-language support, whereas Fresh intranet primarily targets the English-speaking market. Additionally, Involv intranet is more cost-effective, as both technology and guidance are included in one package, without dependency on external partners.
A closer look at the key considerations for Fresh intranet*
Limited options for advanced personalisation
Fresh intranet offers a clear intranet experience on top of SharePoint. However, organisations that require advanced content targeting per audience or a highly personalised digital workplace find that the flexibility in this area is more limited than with other solutions.
Less in-depth adoption support
Fresh intranet focuses heavily on the technical platform. Organisations that also need strategic guidance around adoption, information architecture and internal communications often have to rely on external parties outside the Fresh ecosystem.
Primarily focused on the English-speaking market
Fresh intranet was originally developed for the English-speaking market. For organisations in the Benelux that require local support, Dutch-language assistance and knowledge of the regional context, this can be a barrier.
Fresh intranet
Clean design, but more limited personalisation
Fresh intranet offers a visually appealing intranet experience on top of SharePoint.
However, for organisations that require extensive content targeting and personalised
navigation per employee, the options are more limited than with Involv intranet.
Implementation requires external guidance
In a Fresh intranet implementation, organisations typically work with a partner
for setup, governance and structure. For communications teams, this can mean
that changes cannot always be made quickly or independently.
Technology focus with limited strategic offering
Fresh intranet delivers a solid technical foundation. Organisations that also want
to invest in a strategic approach around adoption, employee engagement and
internal communications will find this support offering less comprehensive.
Less local presence in the Benelux
Fresh intranet is active in multiple regions but has a primary focus on the
English-speaking market. Organisations that value local expertise, Dutch-language support
and knowledge of the Benelux context therefore often choose Involv intranet.
Involv intranet
Built for adoption and ease of use
According to ClearBox, Involv intranet offers a user-friendly and visually strong
experience on top of SharePoint. Employees find information faster and
content managers can easily publish pages and news.
Personal guidance from strategy to optimisation
With Involv intranet, you get not only technology, but also guidance from
specialists in internal communications and Microsoft 365.
We think along on structure, governance and adoption — and continue to support organisations
even after go-live.
Live faster with a proven intranet structure
Involv intranet starts from a proven intranet structure with pre-built
components and templates. This allows organisations to extract value
from their intranet project faster and get employees working with the new environment sooner.
Strong price-to-value according to ClearBox
ClearBox highlights that Involv intranet offers extensive functionality at a
competitive price, particularly for mid-sized and larger organisations.
This makes it an attractive choice for organisations that want a modern intranet
without a heavy implementation process.
When you truly put them side by side, the choice is clear.
