Here's how I'd rank them:\n\n## If you have 300+ employees (real intranet platforms)\n\n1. **Staffbase** - my default pick for a genuinely distributed workforce. It was built mobile-first around an employee app, not a desktop portal with a mobile skin bolted on, and it bundles intranet + email campaigns + digital signage, so you reach people who never open a browser tab for work. German-founded, strong in internal comms teams. Pricing is quote-only; reported median lands around **$28.5k/yr**, with a wide range from ~$20k to $150k+.\n2. **Simpplr** - pick this one if your actual problem is \"nobody can find anything.\" It's pivoted to an AI-first product built around generative search and summarization, with governed publishing and personalized feeds. Best fit for knowledge-heavy desk-based teams (tech, financial services, professional services). No published pricing; discounts kick in above 500 employees.\n3. **Workvivo (Zoom)** - best when the problem is culture and connection rather than document findability. It's feed-based and social, closer ", "answer_truncated": true, "measurement": "One answer from one engine on one date.
