Simpplr Named a Leader in the 2026 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Intranet Packaged Solutions: Four years running. To them, we are built for what comes next.

To them, recognition comes as the intranet evolves from a place employees get information to one that helps them get work done.

REDWOOD CITY, Calif., Oct. 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Simpplr, the AI-powered intranet for unifying the digital workplace, today announced that Gartner has positioned Simpplr as a Leader in the 2026 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Intranet Packaged Solutions. This marks the fourth consecutive year Simpplr has been named a Leader.

The recognition comes as the role of the intranet is rapidly changing. Employees still need clear, trusted communications. Increasingly, they also need one place to find answers, access services, and take action across a fragmented digital workplace.

"Four years ago, this category was largely about helping employees find information and stay connected. That still matters. But the problem has gotten bigger," said Dhiraj Sharma, CEO of Simpplr. "Work has become more complex, with more systems, more information, and now more AI. Employees shouldn't have to navigate all of that complexity just to get something done. That's the problem we're building Simpplr to solve."

Simpplr believes its continued recognition reflects both the evolution of its platform and its focus on translating innovation into practical value for customers. The company identifies emerging buyer and technology trends and turns them into delivered innovation, most recently advancing AI for employee communications and governance. Simpplr pairs that with a structured customer engagement model built to accelerate time-to-value, including standardized delivery, dedicated Customer Success Managers, and embedded adoption.

"For us, Simpplr's continued recognition as a Leader in the Gartner Magic Quadrant is a testament to their commitment to innovation and customer success," says Wyatt Semanek, Director of Corporate Communications at Sunrun. "The platform has been instrumental in enhancing employee engagement and productivity across our diverse workforce."

From information to action

The next generation of the intranet has to do more than publish information. It has to help employees use it.

In the accompanying 2026 Gartner Critical Capabilities for Intranet Packaged Solutions, Gartner recognizes Simpplr and ranks them across Use Cases including Knowledge Services, Employee & Workplace Services, and Work Management.

Simpplr brings trusted information and everyday action closer together. Enterprise search and Smart Answers help employees find what they need. EX Agent provides conversational self-service and guided next steps. App Tiles consolidate operational systems into role-specific mini-apps that centralize actionable tasks such as scheduling, training, and service requests.

The result is a simpler path from question to outcome — without requiring employees to know where information lives, which system owns a process or what application comes next.

AI built for how work actually happens

As work becomes more complex, the employee experience shouldn't.

Simpplr embeds AI across the employee experience rather than treating it as another tool employees have to seek out. AI-powered search, assistants, agents, personalization and automation help employees find answers, access services and take action, while capabilities such as AI Control Center and Agent Studio give IT teams governance over knowledge, permissions, and actions.

That experience extends across office, distributed, and frontline workforces. Simpplr's mobile-first capabilities, shared-device support, one-time passwords and granular access controls — helping employees access trusted knowledge, communications, and services wherever work happens.

The goal is simple: use AI to make work easier for employees, while keeping the complexity of enterprise systems behind the scenes.
