6 Reasons Not to Build Your Intranet From
Scratch
You may think it's a good idea to tackle your
Intranet WebOffice project in-house. You may even be excited by the challenge.
But why take this approach when there are so many reasons to avoid it? Read on
to discover just some of the costs and pitfalls involved in building a WebOffice
from scratch and learn how we offer a top quality solution without the pain!
| Reasons |
Build it Yourself Fact |
Our Intranet
WebOffice Fact |
| 1. Money |
Unpredictable and uncontrolled costs
Initial costs to obtain necessary hardware
and software as well as WebOffice application development can range from
£8,000 to £40,000.
Maintenance and upgrade costs are unpredictable and ongoing. |
Low Monthly
Subscription Fee One
all-inclusive low monthly fee from £10 a month
No hardware or software to buy
Frequent automatic upgrades
Expert maintenance included |
| 2. Time |
You can't build it in Time
Average build time from start to finish is
about 6-9 months. And that's if it ever gets finished at all. By some
estimates, more than half of all IT projects never even reach
completion. And let's not forget the well-worn motto of every IT
Director, "it always takes twice as long as you think it will." |

and running in 3 minutes |
| 3. Manpower |
Nothing but (intra) NET
Requires the TOTAL long-term commitment of
many experts from IT to marketing to technical support. Redirects
manpower away from your core business. |
Designed, built, and maintained by
Intranet experts
Frees up internal resources
Build your business, NOT your Intranet |
| 4. Integration |
Disjointed applications = needless
frustration Applications are
often created in a vacuum and do not complement one another or work
together smoothly. Absence of seamless integration stifles efficiency
and productivity. |
Integrated application
suite Maximum user efficiency

| 5. Maintenance |
More time, money, & manpower
Long-term operational success demands
complex maintenance tasks like application code and data backup,
software evaluations and upgrades, bug fixes, security checks, testing,
etc. This critical responsibility is YOURS for the entire life of your
WebOffice, 24 hours per day, 7 days per week |
Ongoing expert maintenance included Frequent
automatic upgrades included in the subscription fees.

| 6. Support |
If you don't support it, they won't
stay Long-term support for
users requires development of educational tools and staff allocation.
Online documentation, phone support, and dedicated e-mail help systems
are critical to avoid user apathy. All this takes time, patience,
expertise, and money. |
