Case Study: Genus achieves a more connected, engaging intranet with ThoughtFarmer

How Genus transformed their intranet experience

Genus, a fast-growing Australian engineering company with more than 1,000 employees, was struggling with a clunky SharePoint intranet that was mostly used as a document repository and had very low engagement. The team needed a simple, accessible communication hub that could better connect desk-based and field employees, and Genus chose ThoughtFarmer to replace the old intranet experience.

ThoughtFarmer implemented an easy-to-use intranet with news feeds, project updates, social features, and integrations with SharePoint Online and OneDrive, allowing Genus to keep document management while improving communication and collaboration. The result was a much more engaging internal platform with strong adoption, helping strengthen company culture and making the intranet one of the most-used systems at Genus.
