The Internal Communications Lead

Weighted verdict

Heads internal communications at a 3,000-person manufacturer with eleven sites in four countries, a third of the staff at desks and the rest on the shop floor. Sends the CEO letter, the site news and the safety notice, and wants each to reach the right people in their language, a read confirmation where the law asks for one, and figures that show the board who actually saw it — not an email open rate.

Same scores as the panel view — this lens weights them the way this judge cares.

Reach & targeted announcements

How this is scored

How a message reaches every employee: a news feed and announcements on phone, browser and shared devices, targeting by site, department, role and language, access for staff without a company email address (invite codes, phone number, personnel number, QR codes, kiosk or shared devices), push notifications, mandatory reading with read confirmation, urgent alerts, scheduled posts, and reach analytics per message and audience.

0 — Not a communication tool; the company cannot publish news or announcements to employees in the product.

3 — A news feed or announcement channel for employees with company accounts; targeting, access without a company email address and reach figures are basic or not described.

5 — News and announcements targeted by group, site or role, delivered to a mobile app with push notifications and to the browser, employees without a company email address able to log in, and views or reach shown per post.

8 — Targeting by site, department, role and language from HR data, login documented for staff without email or company devices (personnel number, SMS code, shared devices), mandatory reading with read confirmation and reminders, urgent alerts that override quiet settings, scheduled and multi-channel posts (app, email, intranet, screens), and reach analytics per audience.

10 — Reach that can be proved: delivery and reading tracked per channel against the whole workforce, offline access and low-bandwidth delivery documented, crisis messages with acknowledgement and escalation, aggregated reports exportable, and the reach analytics described with the data they use.

Report an error

The Internal Communications Lead

Targeting by dynamic groups and channels with role-based visibility, documents sent automatically to the right people, push notifications, scheduled publishing, read confirmations that can be demanded and quitted, a campaign function to acknowledge the receipt of mandatory instructions, and offline access on the phone are all documented, and the employee app is explicitly aimed at staff without a PC workstation. I found no public information on a documented login route for staff without a company email address, on urgent alerts that override quiet settings, or on reach figures per post and audience — the admin dashboard offers analyses, but their granularity is not described. 1 2 9 10

Pages, documents & knowledge

How this is scored

What employees can look up: intranet pages and a content management system, documents and policies with versions and owners, search across content and connected systems, a people directory and org chart, multilingual content with machine translation of posts and pages, content review and expiry, and access from the app as well as the browser.

0 — No pages or documents; the product carries only messages that scroll away.

3 — Files or simple pages can be shared; search, translation, a people directory and content governance are basic or not described.

5 — Pages and a document area with permissions, search across the content, a people directory, content available in the mobile app, and posts or pages translatable into several languages.

8 — A content management system with templates, page ownership, review dates and versioning, search across connected systems (SharePoint, Google Drive or similar), automatic translation of posts, pages and comments into named languages, an org chart from HR data, and pages readable offline.

10 — Knowledge that stays current: content lifecycle and expiry enforced, search and AI answers that cite their sources and respect permissions, analytics on what is searched and not found, accessibility of the content stated against WCAG, and a full export of pages and documents.

Report an error

The Internal Communications Lead

A company wiki that works without a separate content management system, a document library for handbooks and QMS documents, an integrated search that finds files again, an employee directory with freely definable profile fields, and real-time translation of posts and chats into more than 100 languages are documented, in the app and on the desktop. I found no public information on page ownership, review dates or versioning, an org chart built from HR data, or search that reaches into connected systems such as SharePoint. 2 9 10

Engagement, surveys & onboarding

How this is scored

How the workforce answers back and gets started: comments, reactions and moderation, employee surveys and pulse checks with anonymity rules, recognition, user-generated posts and communities, onboarding journeys for new starters including those without a desk, event and campaign pages, and the measures the vendor offers to report engagement.

0 — One-way only; employees cannot react, comment or answer in the product.

3 — Likes and comments on posts; surveys, moderation and onboarding are basic or not described.

5 — Comments and reactions with moderation, surveys or polls sent to targeted groups with results shown, employee posts or communities, and an onboarding area or journey for new employees.

8 — Pulse and engagement surveys with a stated anonymity threshold, automated onboarding journeys timed from the start date and reaching new starters before their first shift, recognition, communities with moderation rules, and engagement reported per group without exposing individuals.

10 — Listening that leads to action: survey results tied to follow-up tasks and published back to the workforce, anonymity and minimum group sizes documented, onboarding journeys measured by completion, and engagement data exportable for analysis.

Report an error

The Internal Communications Lead

Likes, comments and reaction GIFs are documented, surveys are described as anonymised with direct evaluation, channels and team rooms provide communities, and celebration effects for anniversaries and goals are the nearest thing to recognition. I found no public information on moderation rules, an onboarding journey for new starters timed from their start date, a minimum group size for survey results, or engagement figures reported per group. 2 3 9 10

Works council, private phones & privacy by design

How this is scored

Whether the product can be rolled out under German co-determination and data protection: guidance or a template for a works agreement (Betriebsvereinbarung, § 87 BetrVG), no individual performance or behaviour monitoring by default, read and usage analytics aggregated or configurable, use on private phones without a company device (BYOD) with work and private data separated, quiet hours and availability settings, voluntary use without an employee email address, data minimisation and deletion, and accessibility.

0 — Built to monitor the behaviour or performance of individual employees, with that monitoring sold as a feature.

3 — A general GDPR statement; works council, use on private phones, analytics on individuals and quiet hours are basic or not described.

5 — Use on private phones described with what the employer can and cannot see, analytics shown in aggregate, notification or quiet-hour settings, and works councils or employee representatives named as a topic with information offered.

8 — A works-agreement template or checklist published, individual tracking off by default or switchable per tenant, read confirmations limited to messages that require them, quiet hours enforced, a login without a private email or phone number, data minimisation and deletion periods stated, and accessibility to WCAG or BITV stated.

10 — Co-determination built into the product: every analytics view and its granularity documented for the works council, configuration logged, employee-facing privacy notices in the app, minimum group sizes for every report, and published references of works-council-approved rollouts.

Report an error

The Internal Communications Lead

The vendor addresses works councils directly with a free e-book, a whitepaper on the Works Constitution Act with a practical checklist and the claim that roles prevent surveillance; use on private devices is stated, accessibility is claimed against BFSG, BITV 2.0 and WCAG with regular screenreader tests by a blind tester, and deletion after contract end is described. I found no public information on enforced quiet hours, on whether individual usage tracking is off by default, on whether read analytics are shown in aggregate, or on a login without a private email address or phone number. 3 4 5 8 11

Integration, identity & administration

How this is scored

How the product fits the company's systems and is run: Microsoft 365, SharePoint, Teams and Google Workspace integration, user provisioning from the HR system or directory (Entra ID, SAP SuccessFactors, Personio, Workday), single sign-on and SCIM, roles and admin rights by site or department, an API and webhooks, integrations with shift planning and payroll for frontline links, white-label apps, and an export of content and users when leaving.

0 — Stand-alone with manual user lists and no integration of any kind.

3 — Users imported from a file and a few links to other tools; single sign-on, provisioning and an API are basic or not described.

5 — Single sign-on with named identity providers, users provisioned from a directory or HR system, Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace integration, several named integrations, and a documented API.

8 — Automated provisioning by SCIM or HR connector including staff without email, delegated administration by site or department, integration in Microsoft Teams and SharePoint, connectors for named HR, shift and payroll systems, webhooks, a white-label app option, and an audit log.

10 — Runs as part of the company's systems: a public developer platform with versioned API and SDKs, every integration documented, a status page and stated SLA, and a full export of content, users and analytics that a successor system can import.

Report an error

The Internal Communications Lead

Single sign-on with Azure Active Directory, user imports from Datev, Sage, Abacus, SAP and Personio, an optional SharePoint link, connections to shift and duty planning systems, a digital mailbox for payslips from payroll systems, and a Professional package with an own branded app in the stores are documented, and an App-Superior rights tier serves multi-site companies between users and admins. I found no public information on a documented API, webhooks, automated SCIM provisioning or an audit log. 2 4 5

European sovereignty

How this is scored

Who the contracting entity and the parent company are, where employee profiles, messages, files and usage data are hosted, and who the subprocessors are (hosting, push notifications, email and SMS delivery, video, translation, AI models, analytics, support). Independently sourced by the sovereignty pipeline; an employee app holds data on the whole workforce, often on private phones, so the whole chain counts, not only the database.

0 — Non-EU vendor and contracting entity, hosting unstated, subprocessors unnamed, and no data processing agreement offered.

3 — A privacy policy and a data processing agreement exist, but hosting location is unstated or non-EU and the subprocessors are not listed.

5 — EU hosting available and an EU contracting entity or EU representative, but parts of the chain (push delivery, translation, AI, email, analytics, support) run through non-EU providers without a stated safeguard.

8 — EU hosting on named infrastructure, EU contracting entity, subprocessors listed with their locations, a data processing agreement published, and security certifications (ISO 27001, SOC 2) stated.

10 — Sovereign end to end and evidenced: European ownership, entity, hosting and every subprocessor, or self-hosting on the customer's own servers, data export and deletion documented, and certifications published with their scope rather than implied.

Report an error

The Internal Communications Lead

The contracting entity is a German GmbH with a Stuttgart register number and German VAT ID, hosting is stated as Frankfurt in an ISO 27001 certified data centre, a data processing agreement per Article 28 GDPR is concluded, and the privacy policy names subprocessors with their addresses — including AWS with a US entity, Cloudflare and Netlify in the USA, and Hetzner in Germany. The security page claims operation without subprocessors outside the EU, so the captured pages give different figures on the subprocessor chain; I found no public information on the group's ultimate owner or on the providers behind push delivery, translation and the AI editor in the product chain. 4 6 7 8

Pricing transparency

How this is scored

Whether a buyer can compute the real annual cost from public pages alone: price per user or per employee, whether frontline and desk staff are priced differently, platform or base fee, which modules (intranet, employee email, surveys, translation, AI, a white-label app) cost extra, minimum seats and term, and setup and onboarding fees.

0 — No public prices at all; every customer is a sales call.

3 — A starting price or a free tier exists, but how cost scales with users, modules or a branded app is unclear.

5 — Tiers are public with their per-user or base price and main inclusions, but at least one commonly needed piece (frontline users, translation, a branded app, extra modules) is unpriced or "on request".

8 — Every tier priced publicly with its scaling rule (per user, per frontline user, per active user), add-ons and a branded app priced, minimum seats and term, setup fees and VAT treatment stated.

10 — Complete price computability: annual cost derivable for a given headcount and module set, with every add-on, setup, support and branded-app fee and the cancellation and data-return terms published.

Report an error

The Internal Communications Lead

The pricing page names an Essential and a Professional package with a minimum of 40 licences and describes a cost model of a one-time setup fee plus monthly cost per employee, but the pages state no figures at all and concrete costs come only with an individual quote. The 5 to 25 euro per user and month range shown is explicitly a market overview, not a Quiply price, and the prices of the add-on modules are not stated. 1 5 9
