Powell’s pain points in practice.
How Powell ends up holding users back.
Only plays well with Microsoft ecosystem.
Powell is built on Microsoft 365 and SharePoint, meaning it requires SharePoint as its foundation. If you’re Google-first, Powell would feel more like a patchwork solution than a true integration.
Customizations go as far as SharePoint does…
…which is not very far. Think rigid templates, widget constraints, and limited elements. Users say Powell is tied too tightly to SharePoint, making branding a chore rather than a chance to strengthen your company culture.
Decent comms and docs but clunky app.
Powell’s communication and document tools get the job done, but, again, they lean on SharePoint’s clunky, overly technical framework. Powell users wish they had dynamic group tools and easier-to-use file hubs.
Reporting that only scratches the surface.
Powell users say they can’t dig deep into engagement or content performance. With some noting updates can mess up configurations. If you’re looking for data with depth, look elsewhere.
Governance that ties you in knots.
Well, again, Powell runs on top of SharePoint, and governance inherits that complexity. Users have flagged issues with stability and source code management, craving automations to keep things tidy.
Updates that give you headaches.
Product updates should be pain-free, not painful. That hasn’t been the case with Powell as users have reported functionality glitches, translation issues, and widget/filtering limitations after new releases.
Finally, an intranet that works for you.
Axero comes to the rescue.
Customization that truly feels custom-made.
Axero is built for you to make it your own.

Communication that actually connects.

Governance that keeps it tight.
Axero’s governance tools are equipped with automated workflows and role-based permissions.
