"It is the first time we've had the entire intranet actually on mobile, not just a subset of it, and it's well organized so you don't get lost and you can actually find what you need. I've worked on intranets off and on for a long time and I've never seen a mobile experience this strong before."

"We needed the design to be super elegant and the UX had to be really strong. It needed to be multi-sensory so users want to reach out and touch it, then talk about it and use the social features to take that message, and what they've learned, and share it with other employees."

"Before Unily, our digital workplace was essentially useless. No one went there for anything, and it was not used as a communication channel at all. Because of this, we had no way to get content out to employees who needed it, and it took employees 50% longer to find the information they needed to get their job done – if they could find it at all. This led to people going to ‘who they knew’ rather than getting the official information from the intranet."

"Since we started using the Broadcast Center for our global newsletter, our team’s ROI has improved significantly. It used to take 20-30 hours per week to produce our newsletter, but now, with the Broadcast Center's ability to link intranet articles, we've reduced creation time by 80%. From August to October 2024, our click rate increased by 12% compared to last year. This shows the substantial benefits of the Broadcast Center in driving more traffic and connecting email and intranet content."
