Tri-Portal is an on-line system for managing your organisation's information. It provides a seamless, fully integrated Internet, intranet, extranet environment in which you can share information both within your organisation and with external operators.

All interaction with Tri-Portal is conducted through a standard desktop web browser. For most organisations this means no additional software is required, leading to a swift and simple roll-out. Furthermore, little or no training is required before staff are fully operational.

Workgroups that reflect the way you work
Tri-Portal enables you to model the way your organisation works by enabling you to create workgroups and assign staff to one or more workgroups. When your staff login to Tri-Portal they automatically gain access to their designated workgroups.

Within a workgroup, staff can share documents with other workgroup members and depending on the remit of the workgroup, publish to other domains such as extranets or the Internet.

Workgroups may also have facilities to manage noticeboards or calendars. Indeed a workgroup can be given control of a wide range of Tri-Portal components.

Administering workgroups couldn't be easier
The creation of workgroups, the assigning of staff to workgroups and the assigning of facilities to workgroups is a simple administrative process that does not require any specialist IT skills. In fact, Tri-Portal has been designed from the outset to ensure that managers within an organisation can quickly and easily administer workgroups without recourse to IT staff. In this way Tri-Portal is responsive to business needs not operational resources.

Is Tri-Portal Content Management, Document
Management or Groupware ?
Tri-Portal integrates the benefits of all three of these types of system but with one additional key feature, simplicity. Most Content Management, document management and groupware systems are complex. Complex to set up, complex to use and complex to manage. Consequently their cost of ownership is high. Tri-Portal addresses these shortcomings by providing a core set of functions supplemented with a wide range of optional elements which can be implemented on an as-needs basis. In this way, you get an optimal system that is easy to use and you only pay for the functionality that you require.
