Creating customized, collaborative environments
As your workforce grows, becomes more distributed or as you need to connect previously separate areas of your enterprise, you can leverage advanced portal functions. WebSphere Portal Extend features powerful collaboration and communication tools that can enable your entire team to gain instant access to the people and information they need.

The collaboration and communication tools included with WebSphere Portal Extend can help your team work more effectively on shared tasks, including exchanging information with trading partners, so you can respond faster to changing market conditions.

Business processes run faster when portal users can productively collaborate and act on the information they’re viewing. WebSphere Portal Extend enables you to make information easier to share and update on employee intranets—reducing maintenance time and cost. Out-of-the-box portal page templates provide customizable online work environments that let individuals, teams or communities view, search, create, convert and edit basic documents, spreadsheets and presentations stored in document libraries. The result is a collaborative work environment in which decisions—based on shared knowledge and access to dynamic information—can be made faster.

With WebSphere Portal Extend, you can create a personalized experience for each visitor to your Web site. And if you can make your site more interesting and useful with targeted content and enhanced services, you can attract and retain more customers. Discerning customers are likely to stay longer and come back sooner. WebSphere Portal Extend helps you make informed decisions about Web initiatives, from content design appeal to marketing advertisement effectiveness. Maximize B2C, B2B and B2E Web-site effectiveness for IT, marketing and sales executives—all in one solution. And you can capture, store, measure, report and chart Web-site visitor trends and preferences to get a detailed view of events.

Save time by optimizing your search for information
Users can also take advantage of extended search functionality through WebSphere Portal Extend. To solve a problem quickly, users often need to make ad hoc queries to gather new information. WebSphere Portal Extend enables you to search across an expanded variety of data stores, including relational databases, such as IBM DB2® Universal Database™ and Oracle, IBM Lotus Notes® and Lotus Domino databases, popular Web search engines, and text or HTML documents. You can search across these data sources in parallel and combine the results into a consolidated list of matching documents, avoiding serial data-source searches and saving time.
