Welcome

$2,499

The Welcome web part from The Accelerator adds a personal touch to your intranet homepage. Traditional intranet homepages or landing pages have typically struggled to deliver an individual and relevant landing experience.

With Welcome, you can create a personalized experience for the visitor by configuring a bespoke greeting message and sourcing information on their current location, such as the time, date, and weather. Organizations that operate in multiple geographic locations will also find the time zone feature a helpful addition.
