Based on extensive expert evaluation, the report compares 20+ established intranet and employee experience platforms across eight real-world business scenarios. Rather than focusing on isolated features, it evaluates how platforms perform in practice—covering areas such as employee experience, content management, search, governance, integrations, and platform management.

Selecting intranet software is no longer just a technical decision. It’s a strategic investment in employee experience, productivity, and long-term digital workplace success. This report helps organizations cut through marketing noise by offering:

✔ Independent, side-by-side reviews of intranet platforms, SharePoint-based solutions, mobile employee apps, and internal communication tools.

✔ Clear insight into strengths and limitations across core capability areas, including user experience, governance, Microsoft 365 integration, and employee engagement.

✔ Practical guidance to support shortlisting, stakeholder alignment, and long-term intranet planning.

✔ A detailed expert review of Omnia, highlighting usability, analytics, personalization, and Microsoft 365 alignment

Whether you work in IT, Internal Communications, HR, or Digital Workplace leadership, the report provides a reliable benchmark for understanding what defines the best employee experience platform—and what leading solutions can and cannot deliver. 

We’re pleased to share that Omnia is recognized as one of the top-rated intranet products in the Intranet & Employee Experience Platforms 2026 report and is positioned as a strong candidate for organizations seeking the best employee experience platform.

ClearBox concludes that: “Omnia will appeal to medium to large organizations that want to provide a rich, targeted experience to their employees on any device.” 

Omnia achieves strong scores across all eight evaluation scenarios, with particularly high ratings in Employee Experience, Knowledge and Content Management, Information Finding and Search, and Platform Management. Together, these strengths create an intranet that is easy to adopt, trusted as a source of truth, effective in supporting daily work, and sustainable to manage—making it a strategic asset, not just a communication channel.

The report also positions Omnia as a price–value leader, noting that: “License costs for Omnia are highly competitive, especially considering the capabilities on offer in this fully featured product.”

This makes Omnia an attractive option for organizations seeking enterprise-grade functionality without unnecessary cost complexity.

Omnia stands out for its flexible, modern user experience. Widget-based layouts, smart notifications, and advanced branding options enable organizations to create engaging intranet experiences that go beyond standard SharePoint capabilities—across desktop and mobile—key criteria when selecting the best employee experience platform.

The report highlights Omnia’s balance between ease of use for occasional contributors and advanced control for expert editors. Features such as audience targeting, multi-channel publishing, and configurable workflows make it well suited for large, distributed organizations with complex communication needs.

Omnia’s tight integration with Microsoft 365—including Teams, SharePoint, Viva Connections, and Copilot—supports a seamless digital workplace experience. Capabilities such as teamwork governance and Teams app generation help embed intranet functionality directly into daily work.

The report also emphasizes Omnia’s strong customer reputation. Customers highlight responsiveness, accountability, and a collaborative approach to product development. One comment stood out in particular: “Like having a small company caring for you 100% but with the muscles of a large company.”

Omnia’s customer conferences are also praised for sharing inspiration and practical examples, helping organizations continuously improve their intranet and employee experience strategies.

Beyond platform comparison, the report is especially valuable as a planning and decision-support tool. Its eight evaluation scenarios can be used as a baseline for defining requirements, aligning stakeholders, and structuring procurement.
