23. Is a Ready-to-Go Intranet Right for Your
Organization?

24. When Should You Consider a Turnkey or Intranet as a Service
Why
Intranet as
a service?
Your organization
structure is likely to
change and you have a
small team to maintain
your solution.
You are concerned with
upfront design and
deployment costs and
ongoing maintenance.
Budgets are tight.
You are looking to derive
value quicker and focus
on incremental
improvements rather
than a very lengthy
project.
You don’t want to have
to upgrade your
intranet every 2 years.
You don’t want to
depend on
understanding the
complex Microsoft
roadmap.
