Is WordPress suitable for a corporate intranet?

Yes. WordPress is one of the most accessible options for an intranet. With plugins like BuddyPress (community/profiles), WPForms (HR forms), bbPress (forums), and LDAP/Active Directory integration, you can build a complete intranet with a knowledge base, announcements, employee directory and request forms.

How to integrate WordPress with Active Directory?

The WP LDAP Auth or Active Directory Integration plugin syncs WordPress users with the corporate AD. Users log in with their Windows domain credentials, and AD groups map to WordPress roles. This eliminates the need to manage separate passwords for the intranet.

WordPress intranet vs SharePoint: which to choose?

SharePoint is the Microsoft solution integrated with Office 365, ideal if the company already uses the Microsoft ecosystem. WordPress is more flexible in design and custom functionality, with zero license cost and more accessible development. For intranets needing deep integration with Teams, Outlook and OneDrive, SharePoint may be more natural.

How to control access to confidential content on a WordPress intranet?

Restricted content is implemented via: posts with "private" status (visible only to admins/editors), membership plugins with access by role/department, WP Members' content-protection shortcode, or custom role checks in the PHP template. For confidential documents, storage outside the webroot with a signed URL is the most secure standard.

How to build efficient search on a WordPress intranet?

WordPress native search is limited. It searches only post title and content. For an intranet with a large knowledge base, SearchWP (indexes custom fields, categories, PDF files) or Elasticsearch integration via ElasticPress deliver instant search, filtering by department and configurable relevance.

(04) Our delivery standard

What you can hold us to.

ERP, CRM or legacy system integrations come with a closed scope: documentation and testing are part of the delivery, not an extra.
