Our story

Before Origami started in the Spring of 2017

SharePoint customers had only limited options when building their intranets:

• taking what Microsoft gives out-of-the-box (that often looks very basic)

• building a bespoke intranet in-house or with consultants (that feels like a never-ending and expensive project)

These options, still available today, are flawed because they turn leaders’ attention away from growing the organization and into technical tasks.

So what?

Though technical tasks are important, they do not guarantee user adoption—the ultimate goal for an intranet.

Why is that?

Because on the surface, many non-technical employees see beautiful websites online and conclude that it’s easy to make an intranet look like that.

And it isn’t when you build those designs from scratch in SharePoint with limited resources.
Users get disappointed when you say they can’t have something they’ve seen online.
This discontent is one of the reasons why intranet adoption is often so poor.

There is a better way with Origami

Leading hundreds of intranet projects across the globe, Origami has developed a unique intranet co-creation process built on Design Thinking UX methodology.

Our process enables leaders to co-create the intranet with employees while keeping the scope and timeline under control using our pre-built tools and designs.
Customers worldwide report a game-changer result using this process.

Why?

You see, when you co-create your intranet with employees and lead them through change, they see you as an ally, not a technician.
Employees develop a sense of ownership for the end solution. You won’t have to chase them and remind them to upload documents and update pages.
The adoption will grow, and you’ll develop trust with your user community.

Origami’s niche team of 12 experts works with the world’s leading brands and organizations.
Our focus is exclusively on SharePoint, and over 200,000 employees use Origami tools and designs daily.
