David H Nebinger 5 Years Ago Note that the first way is typically error prone. User authors content but forgets to assign necessary tag/category or assigns the wrong values. The second and third options both work and they give each area their own space to create and maintain content. This, however, can be a con as you'll end up with some depts actively maintaining and creating content while others will let their content get stale. Another benefit for the second and third options is that the depts can also have a private space for their people to cover things which only their folks should be seeing. Of the second and third options, I tend to lean towards the second. The organizational aspect can lock users into their one area whereas site membership can be a little more inclusive for users outside of their place in the organizational hierarchy. While the lines and relationships in an org chart are clear, the lines around a department site, even from a management or content creation perspective, are often variable and fluid.

Javeed Chida 5 Years Ago - Edited Thank you for articulating all that. It gives me a few more angles to consider, esp. the decision points around organization versus site hierarchies. Please sign in to reply. Reply as... Cancel
