Effectively informing Royal van Leeuwen’s 2,400 employees—most of whom don’t work at a desk—was a major challenge. By improving global information delivery and empowering local content managers to easily create and share content, Netpresenter has taken their employee communication to a new level.
Challenge
Before switching to Netpresenter, Van Leeuwen relied on another Digital Signage system. This previous platform offered numerous possibilities but didn’t fully align with the organization’s specific needs: “For us, the possibilities were too extensive, making it difficult for local content managers who didn’t use the system intensively to master it properly. Additionally, the system was very expensive, especially since we didn’t use all of its features.”
Solution
“Netpresenter is easier to use, simpler to scale, and also more affordable.” (…) “Essentially, we target our communication at all Van Leeuwen employees worldwide. We’ve primarily set up the Netpresenter Digital Signage system to reach employees who don’t work at a desk or sit behind a computer daily. Occasionally, we also use it at the reception to inform visitors. Additionally, intranet messages are automatically published on the Digital Signage screens.”
Benefits
“We implemented Netpresenter as a replacement for our previous Digital Signage solution. Since making the switch, global information delivery has improved significantly. The use of local content has also increased, thanks to the intuitive, easy-to-learn CMS that eliminates unnecessary complexity.” (…) “I regularly hear conversations in the hallways like ‘Did you read this or that on the screens?’. So, the information really resonates within the organization.”
“Since switching to Netpresenter, the use of local content has significantly improved.”
