What We Say

Intranets

What is an Intranet? An intranet is a website that is only available to employees in your company. They would typically contain details relevant to your employees including:

• Company news & events information
• Fire precaution & procedure documents
• Company templates & policy documents
• Telephone directories & staff list
• Customer relations database
• and more

What is an Extranet

An extranet is similar to an intranet, however the site is now accessible to your employees, your suppliers and your clients. Extranets would have areas such as the following:

• Schedules
• Key files & documents
• Case Studies
• Internal references
• Client specific information

Although an extranet is termed as one system in nearly all instances it is split into two with clients accessing different sections and employees being able to access every part.
