Benefits Of A SharePoint Intranet Solution
Microsoft SharePoint is the leading solution for creating company intranets and communication sites. Utilised by over 200 million users worldwide, SharePoint supports both office-based and remote users.
An intranet can be thought of as an internal-facing website. It’s a central location for all information relating to an organisation’s operations – from useful template documents to training, to staff HR records and company policies.
They can also be used to share company culture and communicate values – the latest charity work or sustainability goals, for example. They can also support remote collaboration on files and projects.
Many organisations will find they have access to SharePoint through existing Microsoft 365 licensing. This makes it cost-effective to develop a new intranet in SharePoint.

Smarter Internal Communications
Intranets are an effective tool for communicating internal information across a company and are a great way to a great way to keep all users engaged – particularly if the workforce is spread across a variety of locations
Setting up a SharePoint corporate intranet (or a communication site as part of a wider SharePoint setup) can be the ideal way to share key organisational announcements, policies, and employee notices.
Organisations can communicate in a variety of formats (news pages, links, images and videos) to get their message across – more effective and longer-term than email or other messaging solutions.
SharePoint as an intranet can also become the home of workplace calendars, holiday booking forms and resource scheduling tool, providing a truly centralised location for your organisation’s operations.
Intranet Solutions For Document Sharing
A SharePoint intranet can also be configured for storing files and documents. By pooling resources within SharePoint, an organisation can reduce duplication of effort and standardise output, creating efficiency gains in the process.
As a document or file management solution, SharePoint can support collaborative working on documents, allowing users to collaborate on Excel, Word, and PowerPoint files simultaneously. This reduces time spent on projects and reduces issues of version control.
SharePoint also provides organisations with 1TB of free cloud storage, making it the ideal solution to replace file servers.

Microsoft 365 & SharePoint Integration
As a Microsoft solution, a SharePoint Online intranet can be configured to work seamlessly with Microsoft 365 applications such as Microsoft Teams or Dynamics 365 and your wider Microsoft tenant.
SharePoint makes live collaboration on Word, PowerPoint and Excel documents simple, with easy sharing and version control as well.
We also regularly develop Power Platform solutions alongside intranets as part of wider digital transformation projects. And a SharePoint intranet also makes the ideal location to host relevant Power Apps and Power BI reports that your organisation may rely upon.
SharePoint Intranet Services FAQ
How Can I Get A SharePoint Intranet?
Many organisations will have access to SharePoint through their Microsoft 365 licensing. While organisations can try and develop an intranet themselves, we often find that the relevant structure and controls are not implemented, leading to user abandonment. This is why we recommend working with a SharePoint intranet developer such as Akita.
How Much Does A SharePoint Intranet Cost?
Our SharePoint solutions start from as little as £600. SharePoint intranet pricing then depends on the setup, level of functionality, integrations and any wider development required. For a no obligation quote, please get in touch:
