VoicePing On-Premise-Deployed Server for Use in Local or Private Networks
What is Intranet?
The simplest way to explain an intranet deployment, is that it is a private computer network that provides access to authorized users within an organization. Intranet is used by an organization to share information, resources, and applications with its employees.
For VoicePing Intranet deployment, this is recommended for remote environments where you do not have your data center present or the usage is short term.
What is On-premise Deployment (OPD)
On-premise deployment is when data is stored on your own servers, and you install and manage the software. This requires your company’s IT department to maintain the server and network infrastructure on their own.
This requires significant capital investment upfront into building sufficient infrastructure with the appropriate server hardware to house all the software, databases, and routers.
For VoicePing deployment, if you already have your own “data center” set up, this would be the best option to go for.
Intranet Deployment vs On-Premise Deployment, which is better?
The answers are depending on the business needs, technical resources, data management requirements, funds, and IT teams available to a particular organization. You may check the summary below for comparison between the two.
