Sharepoint Alternative: Choose a modern intranet
For years, SharePoint has been a go-to tool for building basic intranets and document repositories. But today's workplace demands more. You need a solution that’s engaging, built for everyone, and capable of more than file storage.
It's time to move beyond the limitations of a complex, IT-dependent system. LumApps offers a modern intranet that adapts to how you work, delivering a personalized and seamless experience for every employee, on any device.

Why you'll love LumApps as your next intranet partner:
An Experience People Enjoy Using
LumApps was designed with people at its core. We put a high priority on a clean, modern UI/UX that makes it easy for anyone to contribute, find information, and connect with colleagues. The result? A platform your employees will actually want to use.
Freedom from IT Dependency
SharePoint intranets rely heavily on IT and specialized developers. LumApps, however, equips business users with a powerful, no-code CMS. It's easy to create content, design pages, and launch sites, giving you the autonomy to drive your communication strategy.
Go Beyond File Storage
LumApps addresses the complete employee journey with features like employee learning, a digital assistant to automate tasks, and multi-channel communication campaigns.

LumApps is technology-agnostic, offering deep, pre-built integrations with both Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace, as well as a rich marketplace of connectors for your most critical business applications. It’s a true central hub for everything your employees need.
Mobile-first Access for All Employees
Sharepoint is known to not be very accessible on mobile devices. LumApps has a mobile app that connects all employees, no matter where they work.
