Is Mosaic the right tool for me?

Fresco is now the default platform for new website requests. Mosaic sites will be provisioned by exception as explained in the new requests process. The University’s content strategy provides clarity around principles and processes for those publishing online web and intranet content.

There are some circumstances where a website might not be the appropriate tool. For example, if:

  • your focus is providing online teaching resources, then Canvas, the University's virtual learning environment, will be a more appropriate tool. More information about Canvas is provided by the Centre for Teaching and Learning
  • you want an intranet for your unit, your site will have a large amount of content restricted to Oxford-only access, or you need to collaborate with colleagues within the University, then SharePoint Online is the tool for you
  • you want to restrict access to private content on a site, then SharePoint Online is the tool for you. You can add external users to a SharePoint Online site. The ‘Enable External Sharing for a SharePoint Site’ service request is available via the Oxford Self Service Portal
