Unlike other Portal applications, SITEFORUM provides broad functionality in an easy-to-deploy format, which can be managed by non-technical staff. At a fraction of the cost of well-known Portal applications, SITEFORUM can be deployed in weeks or days, rather than months or years.

A Meta group survey reported that 85% of corporations plan on installing corporate Portals as a way to control access and management information. But most of these Portal applications are too expensive even for larger organizations, and take too long to implement. The Standard recently reported that the average CRM project costs $500,000 to $3+ Million, plus double or triple software costs in consultants, integration and training. At a fraction of the cost of typical Portal applications, the complete SITEFORUM platform is easier to use and even more cost effective.
