The SharePoint countdown timer web part from ThePoint turns any section of your intranet into a high-impact countdown or count-up. Build excitement for product launches, surface deadlines nobody can miss, and celebrate milestones with a visual that fits your brand. Drop it on a page, pick a target date, choose a display style, and theme it to fit.

The Problem
A launch, an enrolment deadline, a go-live - the date matters, but it gets buried in a news post nobody scrolls to. By the time people notice, the moment has passed. Buried dates mean missed deadlines, low turnout, and launches that land with a shrug.
The Solution
Countdown puts the date front and centre on your SharePoint homepage. Drop it on a page, set a target date, choose a style, and theme it to fit. It builds visible anticipation every time someone opens the intranet - no code, nothing to maintain, impossible to miss.
See It in Action
A timer that looks designed, not bolted on - and never needs touching once it's live.
Count Down or Count Up
Count down to a date, or count up from one. Same web part, two modes - perfect for launches, deadlines, and days-since milestones.
Six Display Styles
Digital, pie, ring, flip cards, minimal, and a milestone bar. Pick the look that suits the moment and the page it sits on.
Three Layout Sizes
Thin, regular, and wide, so the timer fits a narrow column or a full-width section without looking lost or cramped.
Configurable End Actions
Decide what happens at zero: show a message, switch to counting up from zero, or show a message and stay put.
Rich Backgrounds
A solid colour from a custom hex code, plus gradient, mesh, glass, and image styles - all set straight from the page editor.
Matches Your Branding
Inherits your SharePoint site theme automatically, or override the primary and accent colours to hit an exact brand.
Show Only What You Need
Toggle seconds, unit labels, and the "counting" eyebrow on or off for a clean, intentional finish.
Never Renders Broken
A built-in space advisory prompts for a wider column when your chosen layout needs more room, so the timer never truncates.
Who It's For
Anyone who needs the whole organisation looking at the same date - straight from the SharePoint homepage, with no code and nothing to maintain.
Build anticipation for launches, campaigns and all-hands moments without writing yet another news post nobody reads.
Make enrolment windows, benefits deadlines and onboarding dates impossible to miss on the intranet.
Put a clear go-live or cutover date in front of everyone, so the whole business moves to the same clock.
Hand owners a polished, on-brand timer they can configure themselves - no tickets, no custom code.

Yes. Countdown runs in either direction. Count down to a future date for launches, deadlines and events, or count up from a past date for "days since" milestones like incident-free days, days since go-live, or an anniversary.
You choose. At zero, Countdown can show a message you've set, switch to counting up from zero, or show a message and stay in place. That means a launch timer can roll straight into a celebration, and a deadline can flip to "we're live" without anyone editing the page.
By default it inherits your SharePoint site theme, so it looks at home straight away. If you need an exact brand match, override the primary and accent colours and choose from solid (with a custom hex code), gradient, mesh, glass or image backgrounds.
Yes. Until a licence key is applied, Countdown displays a small trial notice. Your install pack includes the key and instructions for adding it - once applied, the trial notice disappears and the licence covers your tenant for the year.
No. Countdown has three layout sizes - thin, regular and wide - and a built-in space advisory that prompts for a wider column when your chosen layout needs more room. The timer is designed never to render broken or truncated, whatever section you drop it into.
Buy Countdown for £249 a year and your admin can have it live on your SharePoint homepage within days, using our step-by-step guides. Or book a demo if you'd rather see it first.
