Once you're done taking a look around, and if you haven't decided yet, you might want to ask yourself this question: "what are you going to use Liferay for?"

As a Portal

Portals are designed to unify information. Liferay was designed with people in mind. We know how important it is to communicate within companies and here's some of the ways we try to make it easier for you.

Shared Workspaces

Increase productivity by creating workspaces and workflows for documents, content, and more. Create a central meeting place for everyone related to a project; now then, imagine getting everyone on the same "page," no matter where they are.

Social Communities and Networks

Remember Eddie, Olivia, and Johnny from accounting? What about Tom, Ryan, Jenn, and Steve from professional services? How do they communicate? E-mail can only go so far and instant messages can get lost or deleted. Now you're probably wondering, is there a better way?

Communicate, collaborate, and consolidate information...

By creating communities for different departments or groups within your company, then leveraging blogs, wikis, message boards, and shared calendars and get them organized and talking. With Liferay 6.0 we've improved this with community templates. When creating a new community, just specify the type of community, we'll propagate pages with portlets commonly associated with that community, then just edit and save to your liking.

Content Management System

Liferay isn't just an internal portal, as an external and facing portal, you'll have the tools you need to create beautiful, dynamic websites. Create content through an editorial workflow then use and re-use that content ubiquitously through your portal.

In this release, we've made many improvements to make finding and publishing your content as global as possible.

These sample sites highlight features of Liferay 6.0

The current page is the default page each user first sees when he gets to your portal. By default, unauthenticated users are Guest users, so they are redirected to the guest community: gdagolf.com/web/guest/

You can create any number of organizations or communities within the portal which will have their own public and private pages. One organization called 7cogs has already been created.
