Feedback to the 5th annual Global Intranet Strategies Survey
Feedback from participants in the current Global Intranet Strategies Survey, now into its 5th year.
If you’re involved in your intranet, consider signing up. You’ll get a free copy of “Global Intranet Trends for 2011″ (commercial value: 750 US$, 550 euros). See table of contents 2010. Read intranet manager reviews. The survey is open until the end of August.
“Once again another excellent survey. Participating in this survey and specifically some of the questions asked has prompted me to investigate some future Intranet enhancements currently not available in my organisation. Great job as usual Jane and I look forward to reading the report.”
NetJMC: Thanks – one of the purposes of the survey is to stimulate thought.
“I would suggest to have a section regarding the search engine of the Intranet.
I think it will become the next “homepage” of the Intranet, just as a “Google like” Intranet, with news, but the search box really visible.
The quality of the results, the capabilities to refine and find information will become the more important part of the Intranet Managers as the path to “all on the Intranet” is here.”
NetJMC: I totally agree. Search is the big weakness in nearly every intranet I have ever seen.
“The term “Intranet” needs to be abandoned… It refers to old technology.”
NetJMC: Absolutely. See this post.
“Thank you again! Your thorough questions again enlighten me as to how far behind we are as an organization. We have a long way to go, but so do many others, probably, and this research helps us all find the way.”
NetJMC: Thank you.
“Thank you again for the survey, always very thought-provoking and has helped me form some opinons on my own work, particularly the digital collaboration project I am currently masterminding! Thanks Jane.”
NetJMC: Digital collaboration? A big question currently. Should it be inside or outside the “intranet”?
“Either my competence at answering this survey has improved or this is the clearest and easiest to understand one I’ve taken part in. I don’t recall thinking “I’m not sure” or “it depends” at any point – these points usually act as barriers which force me to “come back later” while I “have a think” (ie. ignore it). A great achievement – can’t wait to read the results.”
NetJMC: I tried to make the survey more fluid than past years. Maybe I have succeeded?
NetJMC: Many thanks to those who made very specific suggestions. They have all been noted for next year.
