The Plumtree Corporate Portal is a platform for Web- enabling your entire business. In one powerful enterprise-wide arena, employees, partners and customers can interact with a wide range of corporate information and applications, and collaborate with each other. The Plumtree Corporate Portal integrates customers' existing content, applications and security from other systems through Plumtree's integration products, and delivers new capabilities such as collaboration through Plumtree's server products. The platform also hosts the main portal user experiences: personalized and community portal pages, enterprise- wide Document Directory and web-based administration.
The primary benefit of deploying the Plumtree Corporate Portal is self-service access to information. Empowering a broad range of people to use applications and find documents on their own for the first time, a Plumtree portal lowers support and training costs, and improves employee productivity and customer service. The other major benefit of a Plumtree portal deployment is the consolidation of many different Web sites and services in a single managed environment. Integrating dozens or hundreds of intranets, extranets and Web-enabled applications in one portal lowers the cost of their development, simplifies maintenance and ensures that users can find all the electronic resources being created across the enterprise.
The Plumtree Corporate Portal relies on a Web Services Architecture to assemble all the resources available in the portal, lowering the cost of integrating heterogeneous systems. At the center of this architecture is a Parallel Portal Engine that uses Internet standards to communicate with other systems. Designed from the outset to communicate with Web services running on different platforms and networks, the Plumtree Corporate Portal's parallel engine is the only integration infrastructure designed to communicate with thousands of systems via Internet protocols, for hundreds of thousands of users.
The Plumtree Corporate Portal delivers more value from information technology to a broader audience of employees, partners and customers than was ever before possible. Licensed by over 300 customers for over five million users, the Plumtree Corporate Portal is the most widely deployed portal platform in the industry. According to a recent survey, eighty percent of Plumtree customers are in deployment, and 96% would deploy Plumtree again. Through five years and hundreds of customer deployments, Plumtree has the battle-tested portal software, deployment methodology and customer commitment to ensure your project's success. |
