Microsoft SharePoint supports intelligent workplaces — those that leverage the collective knowledge of
current users, share, and collaborate easily, and engage audiences with targeted content and news.
Intranet Portal is the entry point that unifies access to enterprise information and applications on an
intranet. This tool helps companies manage their data, applications, and information more easily
through personalized views. SharePoint Online as a portal solution is able to integrate legacy
applications, objects from other portals, and handle thousands of user requests. In a corporate enterprise

centralizing documents becomes obvious. Advanced search functions allow employees to quickly find

Government regulations require maintenance of different kinds of data and documents, and the
requirements are often very complex. A good intranet portal will help ensure compliance with the rules,
contain business secrets and other confidential data, such as product formulas or employees’ personal
details. If unauthorized persons gain access to these documents, it can lead to business damage or legal
damages. An intranet portal ensures that only authorized persons can access documents within the

Elimination or minimization of double entry: In other words, data should only need to be entered in

problem of updating important information in one file and not another. For example, a clerk at a branch
may update a person’s contact information in their customer database and fail to notify the Customer
Service team, which may be responsible for updating the client’s address in the client’s document and
contract files.
Elimination or minimization of duplicate files: If more than one person is responsible for working on
or reviewing the same files, a common problem is that duplicate copies of the subject files exist on the
network. When there are duplicate files in use, assuming the error is caught, additional time must be
