Sorce and UserWay Partner to make Intranet Sites More Accessible
Sorce integrates the UserWay’s accessibility technology into its intranet software, improving user experience for people with disabilities.
We are delighted to announce our partnership with UserWay, a pioneer in digital accessibility technology. By integrating UserWay’s technology across Engage, Juggl and SharePoint intranets, we’re making meaningful improvements to the experience of users with disabilities, including those who are blind or have low vision. Our new partnership is a powerful testament to the importance of accessibility for intranets and other digital content accessed by organisation’s employees and team members.
With over 16 million people in the UK alone, living with disabilities, web accessibility has become an increasingly complex and critical issue. There are stringent standards that websites and intranets must meet to be accessible. UserWay technology not only helps organisations mitigate legal risks associated with inacessibility, but also creates a more inclusive user experience for people with disabilities.
Our partnership with UserWay represents a powerful combination of enterprise-class intranet software and advanced automated accessibility tools. “We are delighted to partner with UserWay to create inclusive intranet sites that will better meet every user’s needs. I think this is a great achievement not only for Sorce, but all our existing and new customers”, said John Nicklin, MD of Sorce.
On the 23rd January at 10am, Sorce will be hosting a special webinar, focusing on our new partnership and intranet accessibility. You are invited to join us; simply register here.
