What we hear in almost every intranet conversation.

SharePoint is powerful, but it was not designed to be an intranet. We have been helping businesses close that gap for over 20 years. Almost a quarter of the businesses we speak to say findability is their biggest challenge. Another quarter say governance. These are the themes that come up most often.

  • "People spend half their day hunting for things"

    Policies, guides, forms, and contacts are scattered across sites and folders. Employees ask colleagues instead of searching because they do not trust they will find the right version. This is consistently the most common challenge we hear.

  • "The intranet exists but employees don't really use it"

    The experience feels dated, generic, or disconnected from day-to-day work. No personalisation, no mobile access, no reason to visit. Employees default to email or Teams and the intranet becomes a place people are sent to, not somewhere they choose to go.

  • "It's too SharePointy - it doesn't look or feel like ours"

    The intranet works, but it looks like default SharePoint. No branding, no personality, no reason for employees to trust it as an official company channel. These are often the quickest wins - a licence and some better web parts can transform the experience without a full rebuild.

  • "Publishing takes too long and depends on too few people"

    Internal teams are stuck with too much admin and too little momentum. A simple news article becomes a bottleneck. Comms and HR need to publish, target, and manage content without relying on IT or waiting in a queue.

  • "Governance gets messy as soon as the intranet grows"

    Structure, permissions, and content consistency break down as more teams start publishing. Nobody owns the information architecture and every department builds their own corner. The need for control without friction comes up just as often as findability.

  • "My board asked me to prove the intranet is working. I had nothing."

    Leadership wants adoption data and you have page views and little else. This is the gap that kills intranet investment. Without real engagement metrics, it is impossible to make the case for continued budget or further improvement.

How Lightspeed365 boosts employee engagement.

  • AI-powered search that finds answers, not just files

    Employees find the content, people, and tools they need without hunting. AI-powered search, structured people search, and intuitive navigation - so asking a colleague stops being the fastest route to an answer.

  • An intranet your employees want to open every morning

    Personalised content, rich news feeds, and mobile access through Teams. The intranet becomes somewhere employees choose to go, not somewhere they are sent.

  • Branded design that looks and feels like your business

    Your intranet should look like your business, not like default SharePoint. Lightspeed365 applies your brand identity across every page and web part.

  • Publishing anyone on the team can do

    Comms and HR teams publish and target content without waiting for IT. Branded templates, audience targeting, and a familiar editing experience so your team spends time on content, not formatting.

  • Built-in governance without a separate platform

    Admin dashboards, structured templates, and clear content ownership bring consistency as the intranet grows. More control for the people who manage it, less friction for the people who use it.

  • Analytics that prove the intranet is working

    Integration with Microsoft Clarity gives you real engagement dashboards - content performance, user journeys, and adoption trends. Show leadership the numbers, not anecdotes.
