Case Study: HP (Hewlett Packard Enterprise) achieves a personalized, high‑engagement employee portal — 10M monthly page views and 6× engagement — with Kentico

HP - Customer Case Study

Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) needed a scalable internal portal to serve 150,000+ employees as a personalized intranet, dashboard and news hub. The challenge was delivering a tile-based, multimedia experience that could be customized per user and updated in real time while integrating many backend systems, handling very high traffic, and supporting distributed dev-ops across multiple teams.

BlueModus implemented HP News Now on Kentico EMS for its flexible architecture, building a user-driven tile interface with real-time two-way updates (SignalR/websockets), EMS workflows, and custom tooling (PEON) to support CI and content staging. The result: the portal became the default browser homepage for employees, sustained ~10 million page views per month (peak 14M), supports 150k personalized pages and hundreds of editors, and drove a six-fold increase in the Story Effectiveness Index while streamlining timely internal communications.
