Looking for a Meta Workplace alternative?
Involv intranet replaces Workplace by Meta with a fully-fledged intranet, natively integrated with Microsoft 365, so your workforce stays informed, aligned and engaged wherever they work. Live within your own Microsoft 365 tenant in weeks.
What happened to Workplace by Meta?
Meta discontinued Workplace on 31 August 2025, the platform many organizations used for internal communication and social collaboration. Teams that relied on it for company news, groups and chat need a durable replacement built on infrastructure they already run. Involv intranet is that replacement: a fully-fledged intranet, natively integrated with Microsoft 365, so nothing has to start from scratch.
Why chat and social alone were never enough
Information gets lost in the stream
Safety instructions or technical updates disappear in the flow of messages, impossible to find again weeks later.
No single source of truth
Which plan is the latest version? Who confirmed delivery? Without version control, preventable errors happen on site.
Privacy and liability (GDPR)
Business photos and client data live on private phones. When someone leaves, the project history leaves with them, with no formal record if disputes arise.
The "always-on" pressure
Work messages after hours blur the line between job and home life, wearing down motivation and wellbeing over time.
Involv intranet is built to close exactly this gap, natively integrated with the Microsoft 365 tools you already run.
Seamless Microsoft 365 integration
Involv intranet integrates effortlessly with the Microsoft 365 tools your teams already use, including Teams, OneDrive, SharePoint, Outlook and Copilot, so employees keep working inside their familiar workspace instead of learning a new one.
- Native in Microsoft Teams: news and search, no extra app to open
- Built on SharePoint, with content living in your own tenant
- Works alongside Viva Engage instead of replacing it
A social feed and notifications, right where work happens
Involv intranet keeps the engagement Workplace was built for. A built-in social feed and real-time notifications mean news, likes and comments don't get lost, natively integrated with Viva Engage so employees keep the conversations they already know.
- Built-in social feed with likes, comments and reactions
- Real-time notifications, so important updates don't get missed
- Native Viva Engage integration, no extra app required
Omnichannel accessibility, not just a desktop tab
Your employees aren't tied to their desks, and neither is Involv. Available on desktop, mobile and Involv Cast, your workforce stays connected whether they're in the office, at home or in the field.
- Own-branded mobile app, not a default social app
- Involv Cast for screens in break rooms and on the shop floor
- Same governed content, everywhere your team works
Newsletters, a real people directory, and your own brand
Involv intranet goes further than what Workplace covered. A drag-and-drop newsletter builder keeps employees informed without design skills, the Who's-Who directory helps people find colleagues and expertise instantly, and full branding makes the platform look like your company, not a generic app.
- Newsletter builder: drag-and-drop, no design experience needed
- Who's-Who directory: find people, departments and expertise fast
- Full branding: your logos, colors, widgets and layouts
