Case Study: Peakon unifies its global workforce and boosts engagement with Simpplr

Peakon Unifies a Far-Flung Global Workforce on Simpplr

Peakon, a Copenhagen‑based employee success platform with a globally distributed workforce, faced a widening communications gap as rapid growth spread teams across five countries and many time zones. Important updates were getting lost in Slack and the HR team lacked the bandwidth and design expertise for a highly custom intranet, so Peakon selected Simpplr and its purpose‑built intranet platform to create a single source of truth and restore consistent, prioritized communication.

Simpplr provided a research‑driven intranet (branded internally as "Peak Times") with built‑in UX best practices, automated content governance, personalization, mobile reach, and distributed administration, enabling Peakon to launch in six weeks. The result was rapid adoption (90%+ of employees in the first two weeks), a ~75% drop in complaints about missing information within the first month, and placement in the 95th percentile among tech companies for employees saying the business strategy is well communicated — driving greater transparency and engagement across the company.
