Alerts and Announcements That Actually Get Seen
Post Once - Reach the Right People Instantly
Need to notify all branch managers? Just HR staff? The whole institution? SimplifyIT lets you post alerts and announcements right to the intranet homepage - targeted, timestamped, and optionally tracked.
Flexible, Targeted, and Trackable
- Post general updates, reminders, or time-sensitive alerts
- Target by role, department, or branch location
- Add optional attachments or policy links
- Require acknowledgment (with timestamped record)
- Set expiration dates so alerts clear automatically
- Preview how the alert will appear on desktop and mobile
Why Use the Intranet Instead of Email?
Most internal messages get buried in inboxes or lost in Teams threads. SimplifyIT keeps alerts front and center - without depending on external tools. Staff see what's new the moment they log in.
And when you need accountability, acknowledgment tracking gives you a clear record of who saw what - and when.
Common Uses in Financial Institutions
- New policy or compliance alert (with required acknowledgment)
- Scheduled maintenance or system downtime
- Branch closure or modified hours
- Event announcements or enrollment deadlines
- Weather-related or emergency communications
Common Questions
Can staff acknowledge alerts without logging in?
No - acknowledgments require logging into the intranet, ensuring valid tracking. However, general alerts can still be viewed without action.
Can we see who hasn't acknowledged a required message?
Yes. Admins can filter by group or individual to follow up directly or export the report.
Can alerts go out by email too?
Yes. When posting, you can choose to send the alert to email, Teams, or both in addition to the intranet dashboard.
