An Intranet for Everyone

LumApps is our current intranet provider. We purchased LumApps a year ago and just finished implementation of the product. We use it as our companies primary source for internal information. LumApps addressed our companies problem with multiple sources of information, information confidence, and communication problems between areas of our company.

The Scope of the product was to design a website that could be easily used to control information and communication flow across our companies multiple business lines and between our field sites and corporate headquarters. It is now our companies One-Start shop for information, our visible user directory, a company community platform, and home base to connect to all our companies web applications.
  • Webpage and Information Management- It's straightforward to navigate and to allow a single source of information to easily be placed in multiple areas of the intranet without creating multiple versions of files. Further it has enabled us to use the same piece of information across business lines without creating multiple copies of a document or webpage.
  • Simple webpage design- The program is very easy to use and edit allowing for multiple page owners across different sectors while still being able to managed by a overall by a small team of users. It sacrifices some robustness of customization for simple use which makes it much easier for multiple users to control the information and manage the product as a whole.
  • Great User Community and product assistance- The product keeps growing actively and gets better. The company itself is great at communicating with its clients about future roll-outs, initiatives, and updates to their product. They also have a robust knowledge base that is easy to understand and allows for quick answers to questions on how to use the product. Their Customer Service team also works diligently to solve problems with the system and communicates frequently with it's clients if their is a problem to help quickly resolve issues.
  • Integration- It has integrations with other products, but they are not always the best. The integrations do not always have the best functionality and are sometimes buggy. It's integrations with Microsoft is good, but it can be improved. It's integration with other products I feel is lacking and could be improved in its presentation.
  • Lack of customization- To have ease of use, it does lack customization. It has standard tools, which are great, but going beyond standard is difficult at the easiest to impossible at the worst. Overall I do not mind this because what it offers is robust, but it is a cautionary tale to those more interested in customization over a solid product.
  • Calendar Functionality- It does not have great calendar functionality. Setting group shared calendars is difficult and is an area of communication I wish the product would improve.
Suited for- It's a great one start shop for information. If you want your data all in one place and easy to access, you cannot beat LumApps for this. It's ease of placing pages across multiple sectors, menu navigation, and org chart integration are lovely. It showcases information and files very well with easy web page design that brings it all together. With only a little bit of training many people can use the product and create content.

Less Appropriate- While great at what it does it is still a place to showcase information, not house it. It's not a replacement for Microsoft or Google regarding online file storage. It does not do the storage. It just makes files easy to access if your company houses them already. This same idea applies to Active Directory, it can do a lot of great customization of roles and allow/highlight information for people if they already have great data about people. It is a challenge if the backend data profiles of a person are not already syncing from other systems.
  • Time saved finding information- Already at launch the user directory capability has made it so easy to find and locate people throughout the company. It has also improved our internal org charts through its easy visualization of data.
  • Reduced Emails- With information being stored on the intranet we have been able to reduce the number of emails needed for communication. We now have places for information where we can guide everyone to that are easy to locate.
  • Improved Onboarding- Having one place for information have greatly reduced the need for tutorials on where to find and bookmark all the information at our company.
For me the configurability is close to just right. I wish it were more configurable, but it does suffer on this point. I don't want to sacrifice the ease of use for the configurability, but it is not exceedingly configurable. Shapes, design, and widget tools, particularly when it comes to specific types of widgets, are very stuck and not customizable. What you see sometimes is what you get. You can't easily change it; sometimes it is impossible to change.
No - we have not done any customization to the interface
It overall stacked up incredibly against all its competitors. Its customer service, simple to use format, and ease of implementation were hard to beat. We got up and running in about 6-8 months and it was right on schedule for implementation. It's feature set was smaller then it's competitors but even at first glance it was much easier to use for the amount customization it contained. We considered factors when purchasing like ease of use, adaptability, and look/feel overall as a product. No product came close to LumApps on these features.

LumApps serves a dual function at Instructure, both as the intranet and an internal revenue enablement knowledge base to support our global sales and customer success teams.
  • Customizable widgets
  • Metadata to customize the user experience for a global workforce
  • Intuitive design
  • I would like to see a widget that can be embedded on a page to have users acknowledge proprietary information before the content on that page becomes visible.
LumApps is THE employee experience platform! With its customizable meta-data, I was able to create over 700 pieces of content to deploy a regionalized user experience for our global sales and customer success teams. No longer were employees inundated with content that did not apply to their region or market. With LumApps’ best in class functionality, the integrations that our organization uses, such as Google and Slack were easily integrated within LumApps to create a seamless user experience for a global audience.
  • LumApps has created a one-stop-shop for both the company intranet and the Revenue Enablement site, saving employees valuable time when doing their daily work.
The set up and deployment of Lumapps was a seamless process. Due to Okta and Google integrations, the implementation of Lumapps was a huge success.
Yes - we have customized the interface extensively
The user interface was very easy to customize. This allowed our company to leverage its own branding and create a beautiful internal site for our employees, who are our internal customers just as our public facing site is well designed for our external customers.
Our organization selected LumApps for its customizability, integrations with the Google suite, Slack, etc., in addition to the customizable meta-data that would allow for a unique user experience for our global teams so that users in the Latin American region, for example, would no longer be inundated with content that did not apply to their region or market.

We are a company built on mergers and acquisitions, with a global footprint of 24k team members in over 30 countries. LumApps allows us one centralized employee experience platform to showcase communications, culture, and community.
  • With a variety of widgets in the library, LumApps allows content creators to be successful whether they are novices simply elevating a communication or UX designers creating a space for people to come back often and visit.
  • LumApps allows non technical administrators, without coding experience, to manage a platform with ease.
  • LumApps provides push notifications and a simply newsletter tool for communicators to send reminders to their audience in a variety of ways.
  • Mobile App is a star and comes with the contract....although we purchased a custom build.
  • LumApps does require some training...I describe it as a high-powered google site (therefore not as easy); so you will want a demo before diving in.
  • Analytics are always what customers want, LumApps is making strides in this area; but it is not just the numbers...it is helping your customer tell the story that is the most difficult.
Customer Success Team and Technical Support is top notch. Product Feature Suggestions are heard and implemented. Customer best practice sharing is encourgaed.
  • Less email.
  • Consolidating multiple platforms (and their followers).
It can be extensive and complex if you want to do something exciting...or you can use the basic design methodology and meet the needs of yru project. As we are in a V2 in our evolution, I am trying to push the product's design limits and do more.
Some - we have done small customizations to the interface
Some custom code, but mostly out of the box with the help of a graphic designer.
