Intranet

INTRANET

As simple as it looks, it is not simple. To put it easily, we can say that the intranet is an in-house private internet. It can be accessed from virtually anywhere in the world with an internet connection (especially via certain access codes) or can only be accessed on company premises.

In addition, an intranet consists of both a set of pages accessible on the network and a set of applications hosted on servers rather than user workstations. Intranet is essentially a way of making application resources available remotely, without taking into account the environment of the user workstation. It is the application server that runs only accessible applications like the rest of the network over an internet.

Usage and Functions of INTRANET

Basically, an intranet basically allows two things. These:

Data centralization: This makes it possible to standardize data, prevent duplication, optimize processing and access to information processes, and simplifies the management of data access rights. In addition, this centralization makes applying statistical tools easier and more efficient.

There is no need to explain the centralization of data: it forms the basis of the Intranet. Since all the uploaded or downloaded information is downloaded to or from a common server through a single interface, the same information can be accessed by anyone with the necessary access rights wherever they are. This is the principle of the internet.

But what this allows is decisively revolutionary for a company. From now on, data entry error, duplication, "lack of information" etc. things do not exist. Data are entered into the intranet only once. All applications and services that may need this data can access them instantly. This simple feature alone can significantly reduce operating costs while increasing productivity. The improvement in profitability happens instantly.

In addition, intranets offer many functions to encourage communication, exchange and complementarity between employees and departments:

Common directory with access rights management for fast and easy access to all internal and external persons according to employees;

• Chat (instant messaging),
• Shared and collaborative agendas,
• Document exchange, collaborative workspaces, tracking of changes, etc.
• Stocks, orders, deliveries, after-sales service, etc. unified management

For this reason, the intranet is a kind of agile and dynamic little brother of very expensive and complex ERP systems, so it is ideal for very small businesses and small SMBs.

What Does an Intranet Do in a Company?

Intranet allows to share information much more fluently within companies and to optimize exchange between employees without restriction of distance.
