Intranet for Education
Intranet software for schools, higher education, and colleges
If you're looking for intranet software for your school, college, or university — whether that's for internal staff, for a campus community, or for both — you're in the right place. Whether you need to connect students to campus resources or elevate the employee experience for your staff, Axero is an integrated suite of tools that connects your people, organizes your work, and gets things done — all in one place.
Trusted by leading educational institutions
One platform for educators, administrators, and the students you serve.
Axero's integrated communication and collaboration tools bring your school's ecosystem together on one intranet platform. Give staff, researchers, and administrators a place to share ideas and learn from each other — no matter where they are — and give your students a hub to connect with campus events and resources.
An online community hub that feels like the campus square.
Axero's social intranet is a place where you can build a community and put your people first. Create a branded hub that centralizes deadlines, campus events, apps, and tools for students. Unite your staff by giving faculty a place to collaborate on common goals and exchange ideas freely. Your community can access important information 24/7, from any device.
Accelerate orientation and onboarding.
Whether it's your school's policies and procedures, department guidelines, or HR topics, your Axero intranet is a centralized knowledge base that empowers everyone with the right information to get up to speed quickly. Powerful search features make information quick and easy to find, so new team members won't be left wondering what to do next.
Make learning easy.
Your school intranet is the ideal place to store information that supports student learning. Whether it's a course curriculum, background material for a class presentation, or a departmental syllabus, Axero's secure document management system lets you share files and keep everything in one place. Never worry about documents getting buried in an email thread again.
Schedule with ease.
Your staff and faculty have a lot of commitments, all competing for their time. Fortunately, Axero's personal and shared calendars make it easy and efficient to book a time that's good for everyone without any back-and-forth over email.
“The biggest difference is the ease of use for content contributors. People are creating blogs, wikis, and events without any training. It fosters a culture of accountability and content ownership.”

Frequently asked questions about intranet for education
What if we need help?
All Axero plans include top-level support, free upgrades, and access to our customer community. We also offer Service Level Agreements (SLAs) for customers who need advanced support. Every Axero employee is part of the customer support team — if you're not successful, we're not successful.
Do we get assistance with implementation and onboarding?
Of course. We offer Launch Packages that work with your team to develop an implementation strategy, walk you through the platform, provide technical guidance, and help you use Axero's features to accomplish your goals.
Can we host on-premise, or will you host Axero for us?
We'll host and run your intranet on our servers — no hardware or software management on your end. Each customer gets their own secure, single-tenant installation in our cloud. Prefer more control? You can also deploy Axero on your own infrastructure for ultimate flexibility, deeper customization, and stronger security.
Our school has many divisions and departments. Can they each manage their own content?
Yes. Axero makes it easy for individual departments, administrative units, or locations to manage their own content. Set up Spaces for each department where they can collaborate, share files, and keep track of their schedules. There's virtually no learning curve — your staff and team members can step right in without missing a beat.
Can we use a mobile iPhone or Android app?
Absolutely. Axero apps are designed for native integration with Android and iOS. Smartphone and tablet users get a streamlined interface for accessing your intranet. Customers with an active license can download the apps free from the iTunes App Store or Google Play.
What about security and compliance features?
Your security is our priority. We understand that security is an extremely important aspect of your business. It's very important to ours, too. Each Axero customer gets their own independent database — completely separate from every other customer's data. We use state-of-the-art application security, SSL/TLS encryption, daily incremental backups, and hardened operating systems. We're SSAE 16 (SOC 1, SOC 2 Type II) compliant with AES-256 FIPS 140-2 encryption, intrusion detection monitoring, and disaster recovery plans.
Do you support single sign-on (SSO)?
Yes. Integrate SSO across your business applications to simplify access for employees — about 85% of our customers do it. We support Active Directory, ADFS, Azure, SAML, and third-party providers like Okta and OneLogin, as well as social logins. 3rd parties: Onelogin, Okta, Etc. Social logins: Google, Facebook, LinkedIn, X.
Do you support two-factor authentication (2FA)?
Yes. Enable two-factor authentication for an extra layer of security. Supported authenticators include Microsoft Authenticator, Google Authenticator, and Duo Mobile.
