Advania company Fresh has been named as one of the top intranet solutions for 2025 by ClearBox Consulting in its latest Intranets and Employee Experience Platforms V4.1 report.
ClearBox Consulting is a trusted independent workplace consultancy that conducts an annual review to help organisations navigate the intranet market and find the best fit for their needs. This is compiled into a comprehensive free resource that makes it easier for organisations to explore what’s available in the intranet space.
Among the 20 products reviewed in detail, only six earned the prestigious Intranet Choices badge – and Fresh Intranet is honoured to be among them. This recognition reaffirms Fresh as a high-performing intranet solution designed to enhance employee experience and workplace productivity.
Fresh Product Director, David Bowman, comments on the award: “Winning any award in such a crowded field that’s made up of so many innovative and inspiring organisations is unlikely and why this one from Clearbox feels like such an accolade. I’m proud of the team for their hard work and our customers for always challenging us to go further in SharePoint.”
What set Fresh Intranet apart?
Seamlessly living directly within Microsoft SharePoint, Fresh stands out with its innovative features, intuitive design and strong alignment with Microsoft, making it a top choice for organisations. Here are some of the key features and benefits that contributed to its recognition:
- Beautiful, functional design: Fresh transforms SharePoint with a strong visual identity, intuitive web parts and components designed to enhance communication.
- Standout navigation: The modern, intuitive global navigation helps users find what they need with minimal friction, streamlining workflows and improving efficiency.
- Smarter search: Fresh’s AI-powered search goes beyond displaying search results – it helps users find precise answers to their questions quickly, reducing search time and boosting productivity.
- Powerful people finder: People Directory fosters collaboration and strengthens workplace connections. It makes connecting with colleagues across roles, department and locations easier, especially in a hybrid workplace.
ClearBox commented: “Fresh does a great job of sticking closely to SharePoint and Microsoft features, yet provides excellent capabilities that enhance the experience. It is particularly strong in news and content management and provides good support for communities as well. We also felt the use of AI for search and information management was among the stronger examples we saw, and we look forward to seeing what comes next.”
