Solutions and Services
Extranet portals
Like intranet solutions extranet solutions play an important role in increasing the effectiveness of work and thereby also the performance of the whole company. An extranet portal, identified as an "extranet", represents a single point of access to all the company's shared information, services and also applications. The main difference between intranet and extranet solutions is that the extranet links geographically separated branches of the company, thus enabling remote access to the company's internal system, i.e. its intranet.
Main benefits of the solution
- saves time and increases productivity by creating a single common information source
- up-to-date information is constantly available (24/7) in one place
- fast and simple entry, search and management of information
- it is possible to provide personalised access to information (different access rights for different groups of users)
- modularity and the possibility of further expanding the functionality of the solution
- time can be saved by means of a transparent, simple and intuitive graphic interface (which can be fully controlled through a web browser)
- safe access to information and services
- support for cooperation and communication between employees, published (shared) information is of higher quality
Description of the solution
The extranet solution that we provide makes use of the benefits of widespread web technology, i.e. the "language" of the Internet. All users, including administrators and content creators access information by means of a web browser. The controls are simple and intuitive, comparable to browsing a web page. Publication and also the editing of content is controlled via an intelligent system of access rights - every user has access only to the information that relates to his or her employment function. The overall security of the extranet and its content is ensured by the physical presence of the server on the premises of your company.
