Horizontal VS Vertical

• Authentication required

• Initial web page is different for different cohorts (student, faculty, staff,...) and roles (manager, senior, programmer, librarian,...)
Why Have a Vertical Portal?Why Have a Vertical Portal?
A Single Portal With Single Sign-on Should Be Your Goal
Howard Strauss, Princeton University
User CentricUser Centric
• Gives you just the data, applications, web pages, tools, etc. that you need.
• It knows your cohorts and roles - and you - and adjusts to match.
• It changes whenever you change.
• Your personal view of the world wide web, not some institution’s view.
Howard Strauss, Princeton University
EfficientEfficient
• Most of what you need is on the first page. No more searching for things that are hard to find.
• Don’t add another bookmark to get the 1% of a web page you need. Add the info to a portal channel and have it all the time.
• Work the way you want. Personalize.
• Single sign-on.

Efficient for the UniversityEfficient for the University
Special cohorts get special treatment
• Alums see just the stuff they need to - not a general home page.
• Prospective students and their parents get to track applications, financial aid, etc. and chat electronically with admissions.
• Donors get to track their projects and other projects of interest.
• Janitors and juniors both get to the right material without specialized training - just go to our portal.
