Transform your workplace communication with Corporate Wallpaper by displaying key messages, brand visuals, and important updates directly on employee desktop backgrounds for consistent engagement and visibility.



Most internal communication competes for attention, another email, another Teams notification, another message that gets dismissed or buried. Corporate wallpaper works differently. It doesn't interrupt. It doesn't ask anything of the employee in the moment. It simply sits in the background of their working day, visible every time they minimise a window or return to their desk, quietly reinforcing whatever you most need them to know.
That persistent, low-friction visibility is what makes wallpaper genuinely useful for brand campaigns, culture initiatives, and awareness drives the kind of communication that benefits from repetition rather than a single high-urgency push.
The problem with relying on email for important updates isn't just open rates, it's that inboxes are already full, and one more message rarely cuts through. Corporate wallpaper bypasses the inbox entirely, putting your message directly on the desktop where employees actually spend their day.
With Heed, your comms or marketing team manages this channel independently. No IT tickets, no waiting on someone else's schedule. You create the wallpaper, choose who sees it, set when it goes live, and it's there, on every targeted device, within minutes.




Not every employee needs to see the same thing. Your sales team might be mid-campaign. Your operations staff might need a safety reminder. Your London office has a different event on than your Manchester team. Heed lets you run all of this simultaneously, targeting wallpapers by department, location, or any custom group, each one seeing content that's actually relevant to them.
You control the design, the timing, and the audience. Wallpapers can be scheduled in advance, rotated on a content calendar, and updated the moment your message changes. No design agency required, Heed's template builder gives your team everything they need to produce polished, on-brand wallpapers without starting from scratch every time.

Everything you need to know about corporate wallpapers - from how they work to how they're deployed across your organisation.
Yes. Heed gives marketing and internal comms teams full control over wallpaper content, scheduling, and targeting through a browser-based platform - no IT involvement required for day-to-day management. IT handles the initial deployment; after that, your comms team can create, schedule, and push wallpapers to any employee group independently.
Group Policy can enforce a static image across Windows devices, but it can't schedule changes, target different wallpapers to different teams, or be managed by anyone outside of IT. Corporate wallpaper software like Heed is designed for communication teams - it lets you rotate messages, run campaigns, and target by department or location without touching Group Policy or waiting on IT resource.

Corporate wallpaper management software enables organisations to manage the background images on employees' computer desktops. Instead of using Windows Group Policy to distribute a static image to users' desktops, a specialized platform enables communications teams or IT administrators to create content for wallpaper, schedule its appearance, and target it to groups of employees based on business criteria such as department, office location, or job function—without changing any underlying infrastructure settings.
It can be used to promote key messages, run campaigns, or communicate business information in a way that's always visible to employees throughout the working day, even if they're not actively engaged with emails or other applications.
Yes. Heed lets you target wallpaper content by department, office, location, or any custom employee group. So your sales team can see a current campaign wallpaper while your warehouse staff see a safety reminder - all managed from a single platform, simultaneously.
Wallpaper on desktops is a means for organisations to have a form of communication that is always visible, but does not require employees to actively engage by opening an application or checking a feed. The most common use cases for desktop wallpaper include reinforcing brand values and organisational culture, promoting internal campaigns and events, sharing safety and compliance-related content, and raising awareness for operational changes that need to be communicated to employees at large.
The reason why desktop wallpaper is particularly well-suited for these types of content is that it is visible throughout the course of the workday, as opposed to merely being visible when an email is opened.
