The Right Questions to Ask

Deployment & Simplicity

Which solution can be deployed faster and managed by business users, not just IT specialists?

Native Integration

How does a "100% native" solution differ from a "connector-based" 
one for performance, security, and future-proofing? 


Data Security

Where will my company's data actually be stored? Is it all within my own Microsoft tenant, or is it partially held by the vendor?

Performance

Why is Jint’s search functionality faster and more integrated across Microsoft 365?

User Experience

Which solution offers a truly seamless experience within Microsoft Teams, Viva, and SharePoint without relying on webviews or clunky integrations?

Autonomy

How can I ensure my team can adapt, customize, and evolve the intranet without being dependent on the vendor?

Jint and Intranet Inside both deliver a polished intranet. But one is a native Microsoft 365 add-in and the other a standalone platform built agency-style, with custom modules to maintain. Do you want to enhance the Microsoft 365 you already own, with sovereign options, or own bespoke code outside your tenant? Jint is designed to give your team complete control inside your own tenant from day one.

If your company runs on Microsoft 365, Jint is the more direct alternative to Intranet Inside. Intranet Inside is a polished French intranet and digital workplace, but it is a standalone platform that connects to your Microsoft tools rather than living inside them. Jint is a native Microsoft 365 add-in that enhances the SharePoint and Teams you already own, with your data in your own tenant.

According to McKinsey, employees spend on average 1.8 hours a day searching for information. A good intranet gives that day back. The question is whether you run a separate platform to do it, or build the experience into the Microsoft 365 your people already use.

What Intranet Inside does well

Intranet Inside is a strong French player, trusted by 200+ companies and public organizations (AFP, the Eiffel Tower operating company, Ariane Group, Banque Nickel, Emmaus and many local authorities). Its strengths are real: a modern, highly customizable, modular design; genuine French data sovereignty (hosting in an ISO 27001 French data center); and impressive multi-channel reach, with content pushed to desktop, mobile, TV screens, email and SMS. It is delivered with a dedicated project manager, agency-style, which many communications teams value.

The real limits of Intranet Inside for a Microsoft 365 company

Intranet Inside is standalone. If Microsoft 365 is your backbone, it sits beside SharePoint and Teams and connects through APIs and connectors rather than running natively inside them. Your data lives on Intranet Inside hosting, not in your tenant. And because business-specific needs are met with bespoke modules built outside the common base, you take on custom code to maintain over time, the classic hidden technical debt. Pricing is quote-based and project-led, on top of the Microsoft 365 you already pay for.

The native advantage, sovereignty included

Jint is a native Microsoft 365 add-in and an official Microsoft partner solution on Azure Marketplace and AppSource. It enhances SharePoint, Teams and Viva instead of connecting to them, so your data stays 100% in your own tenant and your governance carries over. Sovereignty is not a trade-off: Jint supports the French Bleu trusted-cloud option, so public-sector and regulated organizations get both native M365 depth and sovereign hosting. And because Jint is a product, not a bespoke build, Microsoft maintains the infrastructure and the editor ships updates. No custom modules to nurse, no upgrade project.

Jint in brief

Jint (formerly Mozzaik365) is built by a 50+ team across Paris and Montreal, with 8 years of Microsoft 365 expertise, 300+ clients and over a million active users. It turns native SharePoint into a modern intranet, and adds Jint Mobile, Jint Newsletter, Jint Translator and the Jint Genius AI assistants. On Capterra it scores 4.7 out of 5 (as Mozzaik365), with an 86% recommendation rate on G2. Your data stays in your own Microsoft 365 tenant.

When to choose Intranet Inside, when to choose Jint

Choose Intranet Inside if you want a standalone French intranet with strong design and multi-channel reach, you are not building on Microsoft 365, and an agency-delivered project fits your team. Choose Jint if Microsoft 365 is your backbone and you want a native experience, data in your own tenant, French sovereign hosting options, and a product kept current automatically instead of bespoke modules to maintain. See our wider alternative to SharePoint comparison.

AI: a structured intranet is the foundation, not a feature

An AI agent is only as good as the information it can reach. A well-structured intranet on Microsoft 365 organizes, updates and governs your knowledge, exactly what an agent needs to answer correctly. Jint Genius builds on that foundation instead of bolting an assistant onto a separate platform.

The bottom line

Intranet Inside is a strong, sovereign French intranet. But for Microsoft 365-first companies, Jint delivers the experience inside the M365 you already own, with your data in your tenant, sovereign hosting available, and no bespoke code to maintain.

What is Intranet Inside?

chevron down icon

Intranet Inside is a French intranet and digital workplace platform, delivered agency-style by a dedicated project manager. It is a standalone solution with sovereign French hosting, popular with public organizations and mid-market companies, that connects to Microsoft tools rather than running natively inside Microsoft 365.

How much does Intranet Inside cost?

chevron down icon

Intranet Inside pricing is quote-based, set by your functional and technical scope and the project support required. There is no public price, and the cost sits on top of your existing Microsoft 365 licenses.

What is the best Microsoft 365 alternative to Intranet Inside?

chevron down icon

For Microsoft 365-first companies, Jint is the most direct alternative: native to SharePoint and Teams, with data kept in your own tenant, French sovereign hosting options via Bleu, and a product kept current automatically instead of bespoke modules to maintain.

How do you choose between a standalone intranet and a native Microsoft 365 solution?

chevron down icon

If your organization already runs on Microsoft 365, a native solution almost always delivers better long-term value. It reuses your existing licenses, keeps data in your tenant, and inherits your governance. A standalone SaaS platform adds an integration layer to maintain. Choose standalone if you are not committed to M365 or have specific needs it cannot meet.
