LumApps x Sharepoint Integration: Enhancing Collaboration
Harness the Power of a Leading-Edge Collaborative Intranet Solution
The integration of SharePoint with LumApps stands as an innovative beacon for corporate modern intranets. This powerful combination leverages SharePoint's robust document management and intranet capabilities with LumApps' engaging employee experience platform, for a unified digital workspace that fosters collaboration, communication, and productivity across organizations.
SharePoint’s Core Functionalities
Microsoft SharePoint is a leading product in the Microsoft suite and includes Office 365 and Dynamics 365 to create a collaborative platform that improves document management, intranet projects, and team coordination. Its versatility allows for the creation of communication sites, team sites, and enterprise portals, each designed to streamline internal communications and improve team collaboration. With SharePoint Online, users enjoy the added flexibility of cloud computing with access to SharePoint documents and sites anytime, anywhere.
However, when it comes to using SharePoint as an intranet, Microsoft's tool shows a lack of flexibility compared to competition, despite its robust features and capability. Today, employees and managers look for more than a simple document management platform : a modern intranet platform concentrates many assets and features such as employee experience features, internal communication platform, digital assistant, employee companion... SharePoint seems therefore unadapted, compared to a platform such as LumApps. Therefore, rather than seeing it as a competitor, we can see them as complements.
LumApps' intranet integration with SharePoint: A Seamless Digital Workplace Integration
The integration of SharePoint with LumApps transforms the traditional concept of corporate intranets into intelligent intranets that are more dynamic, personalized, and engaging. This strategic alliance brings together the document management prowess of SharePoint with the sophisticated communication and engagement features of LumApps, creating an inclusive and interactive digital workplace.
Key Integration Highlights - SharePoint integration with intranet
Unified Access to Information
Employees can easily access SharePoint documents, libraries, and team sites directly within the LumApps platform, ensuring that vital information and resources are readily available to all team members, thereby improving productivity and collaboration.
Customizable Intranet Solutions
The integration offers a range of SharePoint intranet templates and examples that can be customized to meet the unique needs of any organization. This flexibility allows companies to create a personalized intranet experience that aligns with their corporate culture and objectives.

For IT specialists tasked with deploying the LumApps x SharePoint integration, the process involves strategic planning and execution to ensure a smooth and effective transition.
This includes mapping out the organization's intranet structure, defining user permissions, and customizing the intranet design to reflect the company's branding. Additionally, the integration process must consider the organization's existing workflows and how they can be optimized within the new digital workplace.

Why is LumApps a better choice than SharePoint when it comes to intranet solutions?
There are several reasons why LumApps is a preferred choice over SharePoint for intranet setups, hence our recognition as a leader in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Intranet Packaged Solutions. Here's why:
Enhanced User Experience and Customization
LumApps excels in providing a highly intuitive and engaging user experience, which is essential for modern intranets. Unlike SharePoint, which primarily focuses on content management and collaboration, LumApps offers a comprehensive employee experience platform. It delivers personalized content, tailored communication channels, and a social intranet experience that SharePoint alone cannot provide. The platform's emphasis on design and customization allows companies to create a unique digital workplace that reflects their culture and meets their specific needs, creating a stronger sense of community and belonging among employees.
Seamless Integration with a Broad Range of Tools
While SharePoint integrates well within the Microsoft ecosystem, LumApps offers broader integration capabilities, particularly for organizations utilizing a mix of cloud services and tools. LumApps seamlessly integrates with not only Microsoft 365 (including SharePoint) but also Google Workspace, and other third-party applications. This flexibility ensures that businesses can create a unified digital workplace hub, bringing together all their tools and applications in one accessible and cohesive platform, enhancing productivity and simplifying workflows.
Superior Communication and Engagement Features
LumApps stands out thanks to its advanced communication and engagement features, designed to improve internal communications and employee engagement. The platform supports targeted communications, allowing organizations to deliver relevant content to specific groups or individuals to ensure that information is both meaningful and engaging. Additionally, LumApps includes social features that encourage interaction and feedback, such as likes, comments, and shares, promoting a more interactive and collaborative company culture. These features go beyond SharePoint's capabilities, which are more focused on document management and collaboration rather than fostering a vibrant and engaged workplace community.
Recognized Leadership in Intranet Solutions
LumApps has been recognized as a leader in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Intranet Packaged Solutions due to its comprehensive and innovative approach to intranet solutions. Gartner's recognition stems from LumApps' ability to combine communication, collaboration, and engagement into a single platform, effectively addressing the diverse needs of modern organizations. The platform's user-friendly design, extensive customization options, and robust integration capabilities set it apart from competitors, including SharePoint. LumApps' commitment to continuous improvement and its ability to anticipate and incorporate evolving digital workplace trends have also contributed to its leadership position.

As a cutting-edge tool focussed on customization, integration, communication, and engagement, coupled with its recognition as a leader by Gartner, LumApps is the go-to for organisations after an innovative and effective intranet solution that meets the evolving needs of businesses and their employees.
