"Customisable, easy to use staff intranet"
5/5
What do you like best about Interact?

We have enjoyed working with Interact for the past two years. Our staff intranet has proved extremely popular and has been well utilised by staff since it was introduced. As an administrator of the site, I find it simple to use and the comprehensive customisation options to be very useful, as it allows me to populate the site with a wide range of content and keep it dynamic and well organised. The system was particularly useful during the coronavirus pandemic as it helped to encourage communication between colleagues and allowed us to create several fun and interactive activities to boost morale. From an IT perspective, the site is secure and has an excellent support community, whilst we are able to integrate with Active Directory and our other systems. We look forward to continuing to make best use of our intranet for many years. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Interact?

Very little - the picture library is a little clunky to use and using forms will require some level of training and/or previous experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A great intranet solution"
5/5
What do you like best about Interact?

I'm impressed with the level of customer support we receive, not just if and when things go wrong. Our customer success manager has given us some excellent advice and examples of how we can get the most out of the platform. The service desk is responsive and Interact are quick to flag any service issues.

On a technical level, the intranet has good integrations with some of our business applications (OneDrive, SharePoint), which helps it feel like a natural extension of the productivity tools we already use. The site looks great, is pretty simple to use, and is easy to look after as an administrator. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Interact?

Product development isn't straightforward - ideas raised via the client site won't always make it to development, and it sometimes feels as if relatively trivial functionality is introduced at the expense of improving longstanding pinch points. Some functionality feels slightly old fashioned, and improvements could be made to make the inbuilt analytics richer, especially as many organisations need to evidence staff engagement and impact of comms. Tools like the calendar are underpowered (users can't create recurring events) and don't match up with functionality available in other applications. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great, Affordable Solution for Companies of All Sizes"
5/5
What do you like best about Interact?

We've had a ton of success leveraging Interact as the platform that brings our other tools together. Initially, we launched the intranet as a way to support the many changes taking place in our org. Using many of the HTML embed features, integrations, and permissioning - we've been able to share it as a single source of truth, even when pulling from other services like Smartsheet, Tableau, and our CMS.

If I had to pick a single feature I like best, it would definitely be the search functionality. It searches the entire site, many attachments, and even provides top results from within onedrive or sharepoint. It's made accessing the information we already have stored exceptionally better - and it's one of the more user friendly options we researched. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Interact?

Many of the reviews I read mentioned the back-end learning curve and I'd second that. It can take some time to really understand how to manage the system behind the scenes. The good part is that the front-end user experience is phenomenal and once you have your admin team up and running, it really is an easy tool overall. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The window to our working world"
5/5
What do you like best about Interact?

The software is simple and easy to use - you don't need to be a web expert to be able to build and manage content. There is flexibility in how to add and use the widgets so you can make the site and each content area your own. Whenever we've had issues the team are always on hand to quickly offer support.

More in depth analytics to cover the life cycle of content would be useful Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Interact's intranet is great!"
4.5/5

I find Interact's intranet really easy to use, looks visually appealing and has a lot of flexibility on how we can make the most of the tools included Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Interact?

I sometimes find the formatting frustrating in terms of creating newsletter articles that have words and pictures side by side. It can be done by creating a table in Microsoft Word and hiding the borders but it's not perfect Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Reviewing interact"
3.5/5
What do you like best about Interact?

I like the social interaction features available with Interact

Building widgets and pages are also easy Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Interact?

Reporting - it's a continuing frustration that we can't get the reports we need despite many meetings with the supplier - but we're still having to get data from various different sources, taking us half a day to create a report. This is why I've given the score a 7 otherwise it would be higher Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
