Intranet vs. Extranet: The Commonalities

Although conceptually different and having different core purposes, both intranets and extranets have some basic similarities.

Central Repository. An intranet and extranet software both allow businesses to store and share critical information like group calendars, documents, or projects in a central location.
Collaboration Tool. An intranet and extranet both enable improved collaboration among employees, distributed workforces, customers and partners.

Intranet vs. Extranet: The Distinctions

Although technically similar, an intranet and extranet also have key differences in terms of the end purpose they serve, and their structure.

Accessibility. An installed intranet is usually only accessible from within the premises of the company via in-house servers. An extranet or customer portal, meant to enable collaboration with external parties distributed over locations, like traveling teams, customers or partners, is accessible via a secure Web-based network.
Technical Structure. Access to a company intranet is controlled by a system administrator that assigns and manages rights and permissions to access in-house servers. Access to an extranet or customer portal is generally restricted to external users and enabled through a VPN (virtual private network).
Purpose. An intranet solution is intended to facilitate communication, collaboration and streamlining of workflow within an organization. An extranet software on the other hand, is tof acilitate sharing of information and working together beyond the company's boundaries, as with remote teams, customers and partners.
