CrownPeak provides completely customized Intranets and Extranets as a managed, hosted service. We have created standard models and templates for elements such as company directories, calendars, asset repositories, image directories, bulletin boards, and other common functions.  For every client, we customize these templates so that the capabilities and look and feel of the Intranet/Extranet match brand look & feel and project requirements exactly.  CrownPeak also integrates easily with back-office systems or existing applications. 

Managing Content
CrownPeak CMS is the backbone of a CrownPeak Intranet or Extranet.  It enables non-technical individuals to change content, create links, manage images, approve & schedule content for publishing, and so on.  With Intranets and Extranets, site visitors are also often content contributors, and can easily submit content into the system via web forms for approval and publishing. 

Asset Directories
CrownPeak CMS handles any type of content and any type of output. For example, CrownPeak can manage images, Word documents, PDF’s, CAD files, Driver files, and so on.  The CMS keeps track of every version of every digital asset.  The system can publish content as web pages, into databases, as RSS or wireless feeds, or into records management systems, and so on. 

Search
CrownPeak Search, the most powerful hosted search service available on the market today, is included as part of any CrownPeak Intranet or Extranet.  It can read any common document type, meta-data associated with images or other non-text assets, and will only deliver search results to those with permissions to see that content.  Advanced search, category search, multi-site search, related concept search, and automated categorization and “clustering” are just a few of the standard features. 

Hosting
CrownPeak provides Web Hosting from Tier 1 data centers, and comes completely managed and completely supported.   Like every other CrownPeak feature, hosting is optional. 

Authentication and Security Management
Managers of Intranets and/or Extranets need to be able to control access to live content (authenticate) and determine which site visitors can access which sets of content (Manage Content Security).   Site managers also need to be able manage the user lists themselves, or integrate the lists with existing systems (LDAP, Active Directory).  CrownPeak configures, integrates and manages the entire solution as part of our standard offering.

Calendars
Corporate calendars, group calendars, event calendars, etc.  All are standard capabilities of the CrownPeak Intranet/Extranet solution.   CrownPeak supports integration with Outlook.

Company Directories
Typically the most accessed section of an intranet, CrownPeak enables searchable, sortable company directories, and draws data from an existing database, if desired.

Brand Asset Management/Image Management
Manage directories of images.  Protect view/download access to individuals with permissions.  Keep the most recent, approved images online for use by marketing, sales, partners, etc.  Sometimes, the entire purpose of an extranet is for the management of images.  CrownPeak built the system to enable this.

More…
Surveys, e-Commerce, Records Management and Analytics are just a few of the optional features of a CrownPeak intranet or extranet.    CrownPeak is also happy to provide design services through our network of Certified Partners.
