Out of the box intranet

A SharePoint intranet in a box, live in weeks.

An out of the box intranet uses SharePoint's own features and templates rather than custom development, designed properly around your branding and how your organisation communicates. Pricing starts at £12,500 for up to 100 users and covers discovery, configuration, branding and training.

What we do

Out of the box, or something more.

We implement native SharePoint, Involv and Omnia. If your requirements are straightforward, native SharePoint is often enough; Involv and Omnia add publishing controls, news targeting, a mobile app and multilingual support that would otherwise mean custom development.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions.

What is a SharePoint intranet in a box?

A pre-configured intranet built on SharePoint Online. Rather than building everything from scratch, you get a ready-made structure with templates, navigation, branding and governance, then adapt it to fit your organisation.

How much does a SharePoint intranet in a box cost?

£12,500 for up to 100 users and £17,500 for up to 500 users, both covering configuration, branding and training. Above 500 users we quote against a detailed requirements review, and licensing for Involv or Omnia sits on top of that if you choose one.

Which intranet in a box should we choose?

It depends on how much you need beyond what SharePoint does on its own. Involv and Omnia add publishing controls, news targeting, a mobile app and multilingual support, and if your requirements are straightforward we will tell you native SharePoint is enough.

What does out of the box mean?

Built with SharePoint's standard features rather than custom code, which keeps the cost down and makes the intranet easier for your own team to maintain.
