Social intranet & digital workplace for Office 365
4.3/5 (4 reviews)Synigo Pulse is an internal communications application which helps employees to collaborate and share updates across teams, departments, countries using Office 365. Synigo Pulse provides a central portal with various tools needed for work, such as: tasks, calendars, notifications, apps, company news, groups and teams. Employees can quickly find the right information and colleagues, and go to the underlying systems.
Marketeers use Synigo Pulse for Office 365 to reach out to their colleagues and overcome the old-fashioned intranet that is static, and set up according to the formal organizational structure. Synigo Pulse helps organizations to transform their intranet into a shared knowledge platform where colleagues share knowledge and competences with each other.
Synigo Pulse brings together the world of social intranet and the digital workplace (legacy applications, RDS, Citrix). The solution reduces the number of calls to the service desk and helps prevent ICT to waste money on technical maintenance of complex intranets. Synigo Pulse is secure and GDPR ready. ICT-managers can save on expensive custom projects and give Office 365 a boost. Information managers can benefit from Synigo Pulse's dashboards and integrate data from other business systems (CRM, ERP, ELO).
Human Resource employees use Synigo Pulse because it helps save them time helping employees to find HR data. It gives people a practical way to share their expertise, projects and what they are proud of, including an out-of-the-box knowledge base for HRM departments.
Pros
Synigo Pulse seamlessly integrates into Office 365 and leverages its functionality. The design and functionality blends perfectly into the Office 365 ecosystem. If your organization commits to Office 365, then Synigo Pulse will help to unleash its full potential. In short: what I like most is that it truly integrates very well into Office 365.
Cons
There's nothing I truly dislike about Pulse. It just works. If I have to name something, it's probably the social aspect of the News-module (being able to comment on news-articles). This is a Yammer-connected service, but somehow you can 'feel' that Yammer is not a native Microsoft-product. The Yammer-connector sometimes fails, preventing users from getting social on News-articles. But Synigo is already addressing this issue.
User adoption of office 365
Pros
Possibility to set it up as wished, user can also change his own information. Great in giving the most needed information in office 365
Cons
Sometimes loading of the content is slow. A new release had helped solve this problem. Sometimes the information does not display correctly.
More interaction: employees share their knowledge or reply on questions. Information is up to date and easy to find.
Pros
The product was ready to use in 1 day. Easy, social, organisation/personal settings, based on Office 365, starting point. SAAS, so we are always up to date. The support helpdesk: fast and cooperative
Cons
To react on newstopics they use Yammer and this works not good. It is not possible to tag a person in the timeline.
Pros
The use of the proven technology Umbraco instead of creating and maintaining a custom CMS is a good choice.
Cons
It is an extra layer on top of Office 365. So there is always a delay before new functionality is available for end users.
