An employee intranet is an important investment that can help employees feel connected and informed, no matter where or how they work. Leaders can sometimes be hesitant to adopt an EXP, due to platform complexity and resourcing considerations.

Why consider an intranet? 

According to Gallup, the global economy loses $7.8 trillion each year from a lack of productivity due to employee disengagement and poor workplace experiences.

That’s why, even when budgets are tight and the economy is uncertain, enterprise companies are choosing to invest in intranet software that supports the employee experience.

When teams are dispersed — be it in-office, remote, or deskless workers — employees need a system that fosters inclusion, engagement, and productivity. Intranets are the perfect solution to create a virtual headquarters where employees can gather to connect with colleagues, find resources to get their job done, and stay up-to-date on what’s happening across the company. A modern intranet is the perfect solution where employees can accomplish all these goals in one place. 

While these software investments may feel significant, CIOs and other IT leaders still need to weigh them against the cost of decreased productivity, burnout, and turnover. The cost of a poor digital work experience per employee can be tangible and (over time) quite significant. Therefore, investment in an employee experience platform (EXP) that can be accessed via the web or a mobile app is not just a wise decision, but a strategic one.
