Jakob Nielsen, respected web usability expert, named the silverorange Intranet the ‘Best Intranet of 2001.’ In 2003, the intranet won again for its new and improved version in the Nielsen Norman Group's Intranet Design Annual: Best Intranets of 2003. Explaining their decision, the authors wrote, “In our first design annual in 2001, we selected ten winners and from them, one best intranet - silverorange. Now, two years later, this same company has produced yet another excellent intranet, its third version, that we feel deserves a very honorable mention among this reports winners.”
