A solution shouldn't just work—it should work for you. The award-winning Liferay Portal sets itself apart with just the right balance of practical functionality, usability and technical innovation.
Out-of-the-box Tools
Liferay Portal provides more out of the box portlets than any other portal on the market—Choose from over 60 to customize your work environment. Included are Liferay CMS and Liferay Collaboration offering web publishing, content management, collaboration and social networking.
SOA Framework
Liferay Portal is developed using an open SOA strategy that makes it the choice of enterprises worldwide for enterprise application integration. Integrate your existing HR, Accounting or Sales systems and any other sources of important data.
Secure Single Sign On (SSO)
Aggregate and access your content and applications in one place. Liferay Portal can pull all of your different systems together and make them available by logging in just once via the secure SSO.
Granular, Role-Based Authorizations
To ensure that the right people control the right information, portal administrators can assign individual users or groups of users different "roles" that grant varying levels of access and editing rights to specific communities, files, applications and tools. For example, a "Sales Director" can view and edit all sales documents but a "Sales Assistant" can only view them.
Communities & Organizations
Liferay users can be intuitively grouped into a hierarchy of "organizations" or cross-organizational "communities," providing flexibility and ease of administration.
For example, members of different geographies such as Americas and EMEA can be grouped into organizations, whereas disciplines such as sales, marketing, and engineering that cross geographies can be created as communities. Each such group can also be given a separate mini portal with its own set of pages, content management system, shared calendar, and authorizations. A user can belong to multiple groups and easily navigate between them.
Single-Click Configuration
A fast, responsive interface makes Liferay Portal extremely easy and enjoyable to use for everyone in your organization. Typically time-consuming tasks such as altering a page layout, adding new applications and content, and changing look and feel can all be done in a couple of clicks without ever refreshing the page.
Dynamic Drag & Drop
Liferay Portal was the first portal to offer this feature, allowing users to move different elements around in the portal by simply dragging and dropping them into place.
Work From Your Desktop
Link to Liferay Portal from your desktop. Just drag your files into familiar "WebDAV" desktop folders and they are automatically uploaded to your portal.
Search & Tagging
Tag web content, documents, message board threads and more to dynamically share important or interesting content with other portal users.
Users can then search for relevant information within specific portlets, communities, within the entire portal and even within external integrated applications.
Personal User Pages
All users get a personal space that can be made public (published as a website with a unique friendly URL) or kept private. You can customize how the space looks, what tools and applications are included, what goes into the document library and who can see and access it all.
Multi-language Support
International or multi-lingual organizations get out of the box support for 22 languages. Users can toggle between different language settings with just one click. You can also easily add other languages.
