Why We Advocacy · Comparison

SharePoint or We Advocacy? Often, both.

SharePoint is included in your Microsoft 365 licences and is very good for storing and sharing documents. But a communication intranet needs more: targeting, channels, measurement. We Advocacy adds to it, or replaces it for communication.

Frequently asked questions

Questions from SharePoint users.

Why pay for a tool when SharePoint is included?

Because SharePoint is only free on the surface: building and running a communication intranet takes development, a service provider and a lot of internal time. And it remains inaccessible to employees without a licence.

Do our documents stay in SharePoint?

Yes. Your documents stay in SharePoint; We Advocacy promotes them and links back to them.

Does every employee need a Microsoft licence?

No. Employees without a licence access communications through the mobile app, with a code received by SMS.

How does the connection with SharePoint work?

It is configured with your IT department during roll-out, from your Microsoft 365 environment.
