Overview

Established in 2000, the IntraCommunities, Inc. (ICI) mandate is to help communities grow using the power of the Internet to service their memberships. Our mission is to promote organizations that advocate policies for positive change in society. ICI is committed to connecting community members online unimpeded by obstacles such as complicated, over-priced technology and insecure environments.

We work closely with organization members to design easily accessible and flexible software that is determined by the specific needs of each unique organization.

Financing options are tailored to each association in order to meet budget requirements yet not compromise quality website design.

Data Management
Managing information for group members is the key to maintaining a healthy organization. Growing membership, collecting data, distributing information, advocacy tools, tracking services, and even raising capital are just a few of the components that can be managed by an ICI database.

User-friendly, point-and-click database management software is the core of an ICI community Web site. Seamless, automated and interactive features provide efficient and easy-to-use services that allow organizations to build and manage data for their own closed community Web site.

Flexibility
The development of the World Wide Web and how people are using it change rapidly and unpredictably. Our unique database management and interactive communication software are in effect determined not by ICI but by those using its services. Our approach to software development is to build the foundation and for the organization to determine the superstructure of services.

Fundraising/Revenue Development
For each community Web site powered by our software, ICI will also build a shopping mall for its members. As members use the site to make secure online purchases from e-tailors, the organization earns revenue from associated and allied sales.

Financing
Non-profit organizations should not be short-changed by purchasing low-quality or inadequate hardware. ICI is committed to working with organizations to help finance their community Web sites through grants and financing agencies.

Technology
Database Management and Communications Technology
ICI software is designed to enable communities to create private multi-layered scalable community Web sites.

ICI uses unix-based systems software that can be used independently or as a cross-platform application that can enhance more expensive software products with similar services such as Oracle, Microsoft, or Sybase.

Security
Security is a critical component to any community Web site. Unique ICI privacy protection software offers multiple levels of security to assure privacy from the outside, as well as, if required, within the community.
