Hi, Skunkers I am having an argument with a few of my colleagues on intranet solutions. A client requires an intranet solution and wants to build his intranet on google sites, this intranet should allow for leave management, document collaboration, mail and all other things you could think of in an intranet. What would you recommend; Options 1. Get cloud hosting and develop their own intranet from scratch? 2. Purchase servers and develop their own intranet from scratch? 3. Purchase one of the ready made already hosted intranet solutions such as http://www.hyperoffice.com/intranet-software-solution/ 4. Use google sites and apps to create the intranet solution 5. Purchase and host a ready made intranet solution *(anyone know any?)* Rgds.

Use google sites, and once you big enough, go premium ./Ok3ch On Tue, Aug 2, 2011 at 12:03 PM, Kibui Maina <mainakibui@gmail.com> wrote:
