bs one: companion
With the bs one: companion app you can easily reach and connect every employee in your company. Either on private or business mobile devices, and for employees with or without a computer workstation. It makes internal communication much easier and keeps your team up-to-date: in real time, around the clock and worldwide. Information relevant to target groups only reaches those concerned.
News and announcements
Internal news and company announcements are communicated to all employees. The news displayed can be tailored to individual user groups. This means that all employees get the information they need.
Contacts
All contact information for employees, emergency numbers and meeting rooms is available. The relevant contacts are clearly listed and easily accessible to everyone.
Notifications
Important system notifications keep all employees up-to-date. Restrictions in the event of a crisis or technical information are available to all users.
Comments and likes
In the comments of the news feed, all users can communicate with each other and ‘like’ articles. This increases the interaction between employees and contributes a valuable communication exchange.
bs one: companion is fully integrated with Microsoft 365 and SharePoint, whether on-premises or hybrid. All platforms are connected via a common user interface, so all advantages of the respective combination come into play without presenting the user with technical challenges.

Frequently Asked Questions
An employee app makes company messages available to users on any device. It integrates everyone who works in a company or who has been associated with it. Thereby all employees are connected to this platform. In an employee app, communication is possible between sender and recipient. Recipients can not only read messages, but also rate and comment on them. The information in an employee app is generally openly accessible, but can also be tailored to target groups and restricted by authorisation if necessary.
In the first roll-out stage, the employee app is used for accessible communication.
- Convey information in a variety of formats
- Increase employee loyalty and motivation through transparent and open corporate communication in real time

- Easy-to-find information through an intelligent search function
- Targeted highlighting of information using push notifications
