How Wisconsin School of Business drove 88% intranet adoption with Axero
The Wisconsin School of Business (WSB), part of a Big Ten university in Madison, Wisconsin, has roughly 500 employees. A premier public business school, WSB’s mission is to empower future leaders through innovative business education, research-driven insights, and professional development programs.
With teams spread across multiple departments, the school needed a centralized, modern platform to reduce information silos and make it easier for staff to connect with news and resources.

The problem
Before launching their intranet with Axero, employees at Wisconsin School of Business struggled with fragmented communication and scattered information. Important updates were buried in email threads, shared drives, and multiple platforms, making it difficult for staff to find what they needed quickly. This led to missed messages, inconsistent engagement, and a disconnect from organizational culture.
Why Axero?
WSB selected Axero for its intuitive interface, mobile accessibility, and robust customization options. The platform required no steep learning curve and integrated seamlessly with existing tools. Axero offered a modern experience that encouraged engagement, improved information flow, and provided the analytics WSB needed to track employee adoption and platform usage.
We value Axero because they are more than just a platform; they are a trusted partner. Their responsive, knowledgeable support team gives us confidence every step of the way, and the platform’s flexibility allows us to maintain our brand standards while customizing features to fit our unique needs.

By implementing Axero, WSB replaced a fractured communication landscape with a single, high-performance hub. WSB Commons didn’t just store information; it revolutionized how staff connect.
The results were immediate: email overload plummeted, information silos dissolved, and workflows became streamlined. By centralizing news and resources, WSB instilled a stronger sense of community and ensured that every employee, regardless of department, stayed aligned with the school’s mission.
