Modern, Quick & Responsive Intranets
Distributed Logic Corp. creates customized platforms to support your staff and facilitate their ability to carry out tasks and responsibilities.
Team communication and collaboration is key to enterprise success. Employee productivity is predicated on the ability to connect with colleagues throughout the organization and to access information.
We create a user interface that allows your staff to access policies, procedures, forms, templates, and other corporate resources efficiently. Using our in-house digital design resources (or in collaboration with a firm of your choice), we build visually engaging platforms that incorporate your brand standards, capture social interactions, and increase adoption among your employee base.

What Makes a Great Intranet?
A Sense of Community: A sense of community encourages better teamwork, a shared sense of purpose, and improved employee engagement and loyalty. You're intranet should be an important place that people from across your organization can come together and interact.
Must-Have Resources: The number one way to drive staff to your intranet? Have all of the policies, procedures and tools in a central, handy place. Emphasis on the word "handy" here: We have some neat tools, including proprietary tools to help locating resources intuitive, even for new staff.
One-Stop Shop for Corporate Communications: No more company-wide email blasts. An intranet should provide a variety of real-time channels to share corporate news.
Support for your Culture: As more and more business awaken to the power of culture in business, the ability for your intranet to support culture has become a primary driver for many of our customers.

replace the classic experience, offering better performance, responsiveness, usability and aesthetics.
Social Capabilities

building a sense of community with features such as event photos, even calendars, public microblogs, feedback forms, polls, awards, user presence, and more.
Any Device, Anywhere

modern UI is built from the ground up to be responsive and to allow authors to add content without fear of interfering with page rendering on any device. No need to login in to your VPN or be on your corporate network.
News

of news and rendering in a variety of formats, including carousels, tiles, and more. Supports authoring across the enterprise with advanced roll-up capabilities.
Searching & Tagging
SharePoint offers one of the industry's best
enterprise search capabilities. Combine this with advanced metadata enrichment capabilities to create custom search-based apps.
Cost
For $0 to $5 per month per user, an
organization can offer SharePoint along with OneDrive. These services are often bundled with other Office 365 services such as Exchange, so its possible that you already have all the licenses that you'll need.
