What are the features of Intranet

Intranets provide access to electronic databases, documents, electronic training manuals, office circulars, internal job vacancies, etc. Any type of information the company feels is informative and useful can be hosted on the central server or databases, which can be extracted by browsers when needed without the employees having to leave their work area. This feature provides a further benefit, i.e., freedom from the work area. The employee is free to travel anywhere without having to worry about what are lying on his desktop, since every information required is available on the Intranet site which could be easily hooked up from his laptop computer and a mobile modem.
