Conclusion 1

Interact Intranet uses forums instead of channels

Rather than integrate channel-based communication, Interact Intranet uses forums for channeled communication. Users can’t make channels themselves.

Conclusion 2

Interact Intranet is not a digital workplace

Strong dynamic communication features with social information are great for conversation and collaboration – which isn’t productive if it’s not based around work-content. The lack of deep productivity integration (Drive, Docs, Sheets etc.) means it doesn’t work as a collaboration platform.

Conclusion 3

Interact Intranet is a great intranet solution for Microsoft users

It has better design, more flexibility and more employee-friendly features than most Microsoft-based competitors. It’s time to roll-out is unknown, nor how easy it is to set-up and use as admins.
