Web Design - Intranet Development


Intranets are internal systems that are only accessible from a company's private network, and as such they are usually not available via the Internet. Intranets are designed to allow businesses to share their internal information more quickly and cost-effectively. By placing important information such as company policies, pricing, product information, newsletters, forms, and directories on an Intranet, employees can quickly access up-to-date information on all of these topics and more. At the same time, you reduce the need for printed manuals, guides, and forms, which are costly and can quickly go out of date. As a matter of fact, some large companies have realized hundreds of thousands of dollars in cost savings by making important forms available on their Intranets instead of printing and distributing them.

Beyond information sharing, more companies are now beginning to deploy applications across their Intranets. This type of deployment makes these new applications available to everyone with access to the network, but no one has to download or install any new software. The applications are stored and run off of application and web servers so that when any changes are made to the system they only need to be made on the servers. Thus, companies are saving a great deal of time and trouble by deploying applications over Intranets.
