Intranet Trends to Watch For

Cultures and priorities vary, but there are some common issues for organizations as intranets continue to evolve.

Intranets have come a long way since 1995 when they first caught our attention. Today they are used to address enterprise wide business challenges with budget parameters, timelines and resources that are on a much larger scale. Analysts and software vendors now earnestly publish reports and white papers on how to make intranets more usable and valuable to an organization -- something which they weren't doing a few years ago. Vendors are flooding the market with software that addresses the problem of information publishing, aggregation and retrieval on intranets.
