Productivity, collaboration, and connectivity are top challenges for small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) navigating the hybrid workplace.
Employee engagement ranks as the primary focus for digital workplace strategies, cited by nearly 50% of respondents in a recent Powell Software survey conducted with StitchDX.
Addressing Workplace Exclusion:
"More than 50% of teleworkers worry about feeling excluded as remote and hybrid work becomes permanent," notes Matthieu Silbermann, Chief Product Officer at Powell Software.
Intranets as the Ideal Solution:
Many SMBs are discovering that intranets effectively tackle these hybrid work challenges and more.
Intranets aren't exclusive to large enterprises. For SMBs, the key is a turnkey, user-friendly, all-in-one communication platform that's also budget-friendly.
"Workers often get overwhelmed by fragmented digital tools, leaving IT teams burdened with managing multiple solutions for intranet builds or upgrades," Silbermann explains.
A Unified Communication Platform:
Your organization may already have the foundation for modern internal communications: Microsoft Teams. With over 500,000 companies worldwide relying on Teams, it's perfect for powering intranets in hybrid settings of any size.
Powell Software's Together solution integrates seamlessly with Teams, creating a secure, all-in-one intranet where employees access everything in one place. Silbermann highlights innovative features like a virtual coffee machine and water cooler chats, fostering inclusive connections for remote, on-site, field workers, and managers alike.
