Portals- Intranet, Extranet, Internet
How does an organization determine if its Intranet, Extranet or Internet is deemed a success? The answer is surprisingly simple and universal – a web presence is successful if it is broadly adopted by the community for which it has been created. Adoption – this is probably the one unequivocal word pundits and trade-rags use to describe the failure or success of an Intranet. There is no secret in that fact. The secret lies in what needs to be done to drive adoption. How does an organization define its web strategy and objectives? How does it blend-in an effective approach that solicits and adapts to continuous user input and hence improves user acceptance? How does it encourage the use of critical features such as search, collaboration, document management and workflow? How does it provide fresh content on a regular basis without having to move mountains? Successful adoption can only be achieved by bringing together all these factors into one comprehensive approach.
Intranets are no longer monolithic websites that furnish static content. The new generation Intranet is a set of portals that forms a thriving eco-system that can be managed using a centralized or federated model. It includes highly personalized and customized content that is rich with business information, coupled with a unique web experience for employees. Leverent believes that SharePoint provides a powerful set of capabilities that brings this portal eco-system to life. Through proper governance, centralized system management and delegated site administration, our clients can meet their goal of creating a compelling, new portal experience that draws users in, helps them feel comfortable and get things accomplished, and ultimately perform, communicate and innovate in ways they've never been able to before.
