Axero is trusted by the world’s most innovative, productive, and employee-centric organizations.
Because SharePoint still thinks it’s 2003.
SharePoint shows its age, and makes you feel it.
Great for IT. Not so much for everyone else.
SharePoint was built with tech teams in mind—which shows. The complex, clunky interface might be fine for those fluent in acronyms and admin panels. But for your average user? It’s more head-scratching than head start.
Want flexibility? That’ll cost you.
SharePoint comes with templates and rules, and not much wiggle room. Want to tailor it to your business? You’ll need developers, time, and a padded budget. And just when everything’s finally working, an upgrade rolls in and breaks it all. Again.
No likes, no comments, no engagement.
SharePoint forgot people like to interact. Without familiar social features (think commenting, reacting, or even just intuitive comms.) you’re left with a static space. The result? An intranet that feels more like a filing cabinet than a community.
If it’s not Microsoft, it’s not playing nice.
Using tools beyond the Microsoft bubble? Good luck. SharePoint’s integrations outside its own ecosystem are limited at best, which means clunky workarounds and lost productivity for teams that rely on other platforms like Google Workspace.
Heavy files? Complex setup? Slow down ahead.
The more you build, the more you store, the more SharePoint struggles. Performance lags creep in fast, especially when things get complex. It’s not exactly the experience users—or your IT team—signed up for.
Set it up, keep it tidy, stay compliant—easier said than done.
Permissions, groups, content upkeep, compliance rules… Managing governance in SharePoint is a full-time job. And if you’re not on top of it, things go south fast. It’s not maintenance, it’s micromanagement.
New era, new intranet. Axero it is.
Axero puts power (and personality) in your hands.
Built for humans, not just IT.
Axero’s intuitive drag-and-drop tools make it easy for anyone—not just developers—to build pages, manage content, and get stuff done.
No coding marathons. No clicking through 12 menus just to update a file. It just works. So your people actually use it. Now imagine that 😎
Customize it your way—without a helpdesk on speed dial.
With widgets, page builders, and full support for HTML, CSS, and JS, Axero gives you creative control without the tech tangle.
Want integrations? There are REST APIs and 500+ endpoints for that. Want to skip the dev costs? Done. You dream it, Axero builds it—no broken upgrades, no budget blowouts.
Feels like your culture. Not your company’s filing cabinet.
From shout-outs and badges to articles, newsletters, and discussions, Axero’s social features bring your people together.
It’s more than an intranet—it’s where your culture lives, breathes, and celebrates wins. Because your team deserves more than… a shared folder.
No dev army required.
Axero gives you the power to build, launch, and scale without hiring an army of developers.
Pre-built widgets? Check. ✅Templates that don’t suck? Double check. ✅✅
It’s intranet design that saves time, money, and migraines, while still looking custom.
Plays nice with your whole tech stack.
Whether it’s Google Drive, Dropbox, or Box, to name a few, Axero speaks fluent integration.
Our platform’s flexible APIs and connectors mean you can pull in your favourite tools and workflows without friction. Because your intranet should work with your systems, not against them.
Big, secure, and blazing fast.
Axero handles scale like a pro. Whether you’re dealing with massive files, a huge team, or complex content, performance stays smooth.
With single-tenant architecture, SOC2 Type 2 compliance, and smart search powered by Axero Copilot, it’s secure, speedy, and ready for anything.
That’s all great, but I’m pretty committed to SharePoint…
Can I get the best of both worlds?
While some organizations choose to migrate their SharePoint content to Axero for a more unified experience, others prefer to keep certain pages or documents in SharePoint. Axero offers integration options that allow you to access and display SharePoint content within the platform, so you can maintain your existing SharePoint pages while benefiting from Axero’s features. It’s flexible depending on your needs and the best of both worlds.
It’s worth noting that SharePoint is not required at all to use our system. We have all the capabilities of SharePoint, including native file hosting, and much, much more.
