Clean landing page

This is clean (duh), it’s easy to use (people can find the content easily), search is there (and has focus because it’s in the centre) and it’s familiar (remind you of any search engines).

I wouldn't call it ugly, just not pretty. It's functional and for an internal site that you should only see for a few seconds while you get to the data, thats more important.
