Simpplr Enhances Extensibility with Custom Apps

Fully integrated with the Simpplr One platform, custom apps streamline workflows, drive productivity, and create a unified employee experience.

Simpplr, the leading EX unification platform provider for employee engagement and productivity, announced at the Gartner Digital Workplace Summit the addition of enhanced extensibility and integration capabilities with custom apps. These new features make it easy for enterprises to seamlessly integrate key tools with minimal IT effort, driving a more unified employee experience and increasing productivity.

Custom apps is the second significant product enhancement included in the Simpplr Spring Product Innovation Update, which builds on the new Enterprise Search functionality announced on March 6, 2025. Working together to bridge disconnected systems, these two new product enhancements to Simpplr One enable organizations to eliminate information silos and accelerate workflows. Whether displaying time-off balances from an HRIS system or searching across common enterprise systems such as Asana for team or project tasks, employees can easily find the right answers and take action without IT intervention.

Powered by Simpplr’s innovative bring-your-own-integration (BYOI) framework, custom apps enable organizations to seamlessly connect their most commonly used enterprise tools and integrate critical data directly within the Simpplr EX unification platform. This powerful capability ensures that essential business applications are linked and fully embedded into daily workflows.

Using customizable app tiles, organizations can now surface essential business data from HRIS, ITSM and LMS apps directly on their intranet dashboards, providing employees with instant access to the information they need. By eliminating app-switching inefficiencies and reducing time spent searching for data, custom apps help IT teams streamline processes, improve productivity, and create a truly unified digital workplace.

“By utilizing custom apps, we’ve been able to centralize more functionality within our core system, the Scoop,” said Duncan McHugh, Chief Operating Officer at Nutrition Warehouse. “I’d highly recommend this solution to anyone looking to centralize operations and improve cross-functional efficiency.”

According to a survey by Gartner, “Companies with 10,000 employees spend $4.6 million per week on information consumption.” To combat the costs of information overload and lost productivity, research underscores the critical need for integrated systems in enterprise environments. By enabling seamless integration with existing tools, Simpplr helps enterprises maximize ROI on their tech stack while fostering a more connected and productive workplace.

This goes beyond improving efficiency – it’s about empowering employees to focus on meaningful work by bringing everything they need into one place.”
