In this chapter, we looked at what Liferay can offer your intranet and what we should consider while designing the company's enterprise site. We saw that our final intranet will provide shared documents, discussions, collaborative wikis, and more in a single, searchable portal. Well, Liferay is a great choice for an intranet because it provides so many features and is easy to use, free and open source, extensible, and well-integrated with other tools and standards. We also saw the other kinds of sites Liferay is good for, such as extranets, collaborative websites, content management, web publishing, and infrastructure portals. For the best example of an intranet and extranet, you can visit www.liferay.com. It will provide you with more background information.

In the next chapter, we're going to install Liferay and continue building the intranet.
