A good example in my organization (insurance sector) is that we can implement public, customer, and distributor portals for many countries with different requirements, in many different languages (including Greek or Arabic, flipping the full page reading).

Business people can manage the web content/pages and targeted campaigns including SEO for different user segments. This is possible by implementing custom components to guide the final clients through the purchase funnel to buy insurance policies. It can also provide customer tools, such as accident party reporting, and capture new leads to send them to the CRM system.

In our company, each country can have different backend solutions for CRM, IAM, quotation engines, etc. All these combinations are well supported by Liferay as a front-end solution including responsive design, tracking actions, analytics, etc.

Another good point was the acceleration around the built solutions. We created a reusable internal marketplace to share "Functional Assets" defined by the business, with many countries, adapting a few things like translations.

With this approach, any country is able to launch new features on their web sites with less cost, by just reusing the functional assets from other countries where they want to generate new opportunities.

We utilize this product in multiple ways: for Web content management, inter-portlet communication, user management. LDAP is the most advantageous. All the portlets and widgets are plugins, which provides flexibility to add/modify in multiple ways. It’s user friendly and hence requires minimal knowledge to understand and operate it.

As mentioned above, we have done social media integration for SSO (LinkedIn, Facebook) easily. We have integrated with Salesforce CRM and we used the Liferay CMS feature for authoring and publishing content in a flawless way.

The Liferay document library provided a smooth way to manage assets and documents, even for large volumes.

Before Liferay, we had a lot of different sites. These included local setups for different purposes, and for same purposes, but with different locations.

We were having a hard time collaborating through external services like email, network-drives, and Google Drive.

Most of the time, the content history could not be tracked. This meant that we would have to check emails for approvals for a specific content and notifications etc.

But with Liferay, not only was collaboration streamlined, all audits are now in place, thanks to an easy Kaleo workflow.

The site-feature also makes it easier for bringing up another site within a day for a demo or other collaborations. Permissions can be set location wise and themes can be customized according to the user logged-in and by location.

With Liferay, setting up an enterprise portal is very quick and easy. Its faster development methodology helps us to customize Liferay to our needs.

For our organization, we have designed modules which help us with employee information, trainings, meeting room booking, performance evaluation, exit process, on-boarding, recruitment, and 360 feedback.

Current management decided not to convert our student portal (Liferay 6.1) to Liferay DXP.  Instead, we opted for an in-house developed solution coded with Java and Aurelia with centralized data libraries accessible via APIs, Web Services, etc.  This provided our developers the unlimited ability to customize a lightweight solution which integrates with our SIS and other business/web applications. 

Very important changes are OSGi modularization for existing portlets and new modules. It change the way of development and make life easy for developers

Our organization benefited by the automated client setup and an easy CMS setup.

We are not really using it ourselves.

We are using it for projects to provide quick turnaround for our clients' requests. Liferay has a powerful feature for the hot deployment of plugins, and service builders for easily creating tables using Sprint, Hibernate, JPA, etc.

• A self-service portal for customers
• An online community to share and get knowledge
• A portal for distributing manuals.

Most of my Liferay experience is working on projects to solve other organizations’ problems and meet their requirements. With one of our projects, I used Liferay as a document management solution. With Liferay, users are happy with its ability to manage digital documents.

We use the Workflow Engine for managing the approval process. We have used blogs and discussion forums for information exchange between the employees, and as a chatting platform within the organization.

We are using it to create the customer experience platform.

Considering the overall drive towards providing a digital experience to clients, to provide a connected experience, federated touchpoints, dynamic personalization, customer context and interactions, the product has evolved very strongly from just being a horizontal portal system into a digital experience platform. Newer modular architecture and in-built SPA experience is rightly following the current trends in the market.

There are multiple examples of how it improved our business. It allows, from the user perspective, a single look and feel, as well as a consistent user experience.

We develop advanced web solutions based on Liferay with lower development costs and fewer team members.

Liferay has a CMS, role-based permissions, and hierarchy-of-organization community management which provides lots of features for intranet and enterprise applications. It also provides tools for mobile development.

Information and content are the key elements. Using Liferay to control our web content allows us to have a centralized information hub.

We can discuss, contribute, and review pieces of content as it evolves with time. All this occurs while the platform enforces the correct workflow, and allows web content, media, and file distribution in a consistent manner.

The content management features are simple to understand and make collaboration easy.

On the development side, the platform acts as a great framework which makes engineering processes and projects faster.

Lots of common features are implemented in Liferay. Implementing new functionality might just be a matter of organizing services provided by the platform.

Building specific logic is also trivial. The ability to receive OSGi modules is natural in this version.

Liferay can be used by a non-technical person with minimal training. A content publisher can easily update and add the content. This makes updates available faster for users.

It is very easy to pitch Liferay to any client. This is due to the wide array of functionalities it has and in terms of what it has to offer.

Liferay always delivers as follows:

• Setting up an intranet portal
• Making some public facing website
• Creating a collaboration platform

We use Liferay on our modern-look, mobile-ready website and we also use it on out intranet. We use it on our customers projects, and they love Liferay's flexibility

It has increased communication between the departments and their employees.

It has helped our client to quickly set up websites for their external clients.

It helps develop intranet solutions with code re-usability; once you develop a portlet, you can use it for any number of different solutions.

Its marketplace provides many out-of-the-box functionalities.

Architecture is so good that you can fit many organizational structures into Liferay.

There is no need to develop from scratch. The framework is ready for development. It provides multi-tenancy and is easy to integrate with other applications.

Our organisation is set up to support other organisations working in Public Sector Improvement. The product has helped our members and communities to freely connect, share knowledge, develop initiatives and share expertise in a secure environment. This has enabled organisations to save both time and money, generated and incubated ideas to drive improvement, and helped members discover knowledge to help in their job and connect with people and experts.

It has provided one place for integration.

It reduces development time as well as requires less maintenance.

This product built a capability to provide enterprise based solution to the client with more agility and flexibility.

We needed to rewrite a legacy application written from scratch with much less developer resources. Liferay was a great choice. It had a big learning curve in advance, but it had great results in the end.

We get better communication between team members and faster access to documents.
