Instant Business Portal Solutions


iport business portals are used in a variety of ways but there are some recurring themes. You can find detailed case studies here but the topics below follow the pattern of most deployments, starting from an internal intranet and branching out wider with each stage. The main benefit of deploying an iport business portal solution is the speed at which it can be deployed: that's why we call it an instant business portal solution.

instant intranets

  An intranet gives every employee in an organisation the ability to organise information and tasks, readily access that information, manage performance on key tasks, share resources and enable efficient collaboration in an easy to use browser-based environment.

With iport you can create a powerful intranet in minutes that will boost collaboration, productivity and interaction with your team.

Unlike custom build options, iport offers you the security of standard code, tried and tested by thousands of users, and running on industry standard operating systems and databases.

instant extranets

  An extranet is the logical extension of an intranet – once you have your internal staff working smarter the next step is to bring in remote workers.

And why stop there?

Why not harness the real power of iport portal application software and give your customers, partners, suppliers and consultants access to the extranet.

With iport you can totally personalise the experience that each user or group of users has when they log in.

Unlike most other online intranet/extranet applications, iport comes ready shipped with powerful portal applications to allow you to create customer interfaces and external access rules.

There is no customisation needed and no technical knowledge required. Detailed demos and help files walk you through all the necessary steps.

instant business portal

  A fully integrated iport business portal solution is the smart goal of all collaboration and integration projects. Portal technology is perfectly placed to help integrate legacy systems and bring information together in a unified interface.

Portals share knowledge, improve productivity and drive down costs for the enterprise. One of the biggest cost in implementing a non-portal environment is the basic license costs for package software.

Every IT Manager knows the 80/20 rule: 80% of users need and use only 20% of the functionality. The problem is that they pay 100% of the license fees. By using iport's unique user access security and integration capabilities, you can deliver all the functionality that 80% of your users need with no additional license fees due.

Unlike most other business portal development software, iport has been proven to deliver a very low cost of ownership over a 3 year life-span and it also needs less customisation and maintenance.

Your iport business portal is truly unique in its price bracket: the level of functionality delivered is commensurate with that found in software at the Enterprise level costing £000’s and sometimes £000,000’s

instant collaboration

  Everyone knows that better collaboration improves morale, productivity and customer service. That’s before you even measure the effect on the bottom line.

Portals are quite simply the best collaboration tool available now.

The technology supports multi-layers of transactions and workflows so that specific issues of interest or tasks can be routed to the right person or team for action.

That is the key differentiator: with iport you have a fully transaction based portal solution – not merely an electronic notice board.

instant productivity

  The biggest cause of lack of productivity in IT systems is often duplication of input and duplication of effort. How many systems operate in your organisation? How many times does the same information or versions of it have to be rekeyed or re-input?

Or take typical customer service scenarios: customer calls and asks for Joe; Joe is busy; Joe calls customer; customer is busy…and so it goes on.

With iport you can eliminate the waste of duplication of input and also the waste of customer telephone tag by opening up your systems so that they capture information once and update all the underlying systems.

Customer logs in and describes problem online; problem tasked automatically to Joe; Joe solves problem and either calls customer or updates task online; customer gets email with solution and logs in to access resolution history.

One call only.

Productivity in action.
