| An intranet is an internal Internet. It is a restricted access network, very similar to the functions of the normal Internet except that it is used for businesses. Companies can share their resources with their employees without confidential information being made available to everyone with Internet access. Similarly, an extranet is an extension of the intranet that is partially accessible to authorized outsiders, usually companies' customers, suppliers and partners.
Our experienced team at Above1 builds successful intranet sites that help employees assemble useful information, collaborate on business processes and deliver the information efficiently. On top of that, they are scaleable, flexible and built on smart information design. More importantly, we design intranets that encourage collaboration by creating shared and familiar spaces that reflect the personality of each company and create a common ground for all employees.
Typically, the intranet includes the following basic features: |
 |
 |
User Management - Administrator can control the intranet, such as adding users, removing users and keeping the intranet running smoothly. |
|
|
|
Employee Directory - One of the most widely used features of any intranet is the employee directory, including department classification, designation, phone number and email address. |
|
|
|
Document Sharing - Specific information for employees like reports, HR guides, leave forms, or other types of documents such as health benefit materials. |
|
|
|
Shared Calendar - Able to know schedules of colleagues for better collaboration or monitor project timelines. |
|
|
|
Company News - Allows employees to keep themselves updated about the company's latest events and announcements. |
|
|
|
Discussion Forums - Online discussion boards are excellent mode to encourage intellectual exchange, brainstorming new ideas and refining old ones for projects. |
