50% de las Mejores Intranets del 2011 están en SharePoint

Lo malo de pasar tiempo sin revisar algunas fuentes es que se pasa mucha información importante, como en este caso me pasó con el informe del Nielsen Norman Group, prestigiosa consultora que otorga premios (luego de evaluar y sacarte valiosa información para luego vender en un .PDF de 500U$S) a las mejores Intranets del mundo, previo estudio y entrevista a los equipos de Diseño. Hay que notar la cantidad de recursos que utilizan esas empresas, (y es lógico por el tamaño de algunas…) en Personal para Administración y Desarrollo de sus portales, muchas personas en algunos casos, un ejemplo a seguir por muchas organizaciones que dedican pocas horas de un “Victorinox” para hacer todo el trabajo…

En Fin, a lo que venía, 5 de esas 10 Mejores Intranets del mundo, están hechas en SharePoint… Saquen sus propias conclusiones…

The 10 winning intranets are:

• AMP Limited (Australia), a wealth management company
• Bennett Jones LLP (Canada), one of Canada's largest law firms
• Bouygues Telecom (France), a telecom, mobile, fixed, TV, and Internet communications services company
• Credit Suisse AG (Switzerland), a global financial services company
• Duke Energy (US), an electrical power holding company
• Habitat for Humanity International (US), a non-profit, non-denominational Christian housing ministry
• Heineken International (The Netherlands), a leading brewer and owner and manager of a portfolio of beer brands
• KT (Republic of Korea), an information, communications, and technology company
• Mota-Engil Engenharia e Construção, S.A. (Portugal), a leading construction enterprise
• Verizon Communications (US), a provider of wired and wireless broadband and communications services to US consumers, as well as of global business networking, data, and managed solutions to enterprises worldwide

These intranets represent big companies (average size: 37,900 employees) with large amounts of documents and mission-critical applications such as sales force support. But most of the lessons from these winning designs apply to smaller companies as well.

The bulk of the report consists of detailed case studies of each of the ten winning intranet designs, including discussions of the main problems they faced, how these problems were overcome in the redesign process, and how the new design compared with the previous design.
