Traditional Portal Vs Lean Portal

Like it or not, traditional portals over a period of time become very difficult to manitain and deploy. Some of the features which comes bundled in, are never used by the organizations. Lot of companies think twice before investing because firstly it exceeds their budget and secondly some of them do not deliver the results they want.

Gartner introduced the concept of Lean Portal which is a portal built on Web 2.0 technologies. It has been observed that compaines which opted for Lean Portal deliver 80% of functionalities within months without compromising security or advanced integration.

Some of the  advantages of Lean Portal are

One size doesn't fit all : Lean Portal creates a fit-for-purpose suites and doesnt go by the traditional one-size-fits-all approach.Lean portal is more agile in the sense it doesnt need to be 'finished' to be rolled out to market.

Customer Satisfaction: Since new functionalities can be added rapidly, based on the customers wants, the business can easily adapt to the ever changing requirements.

Less is more : Lean Portal does not deliver less, they deliver only what is needed.
