The Web Forums are exchange areas where users can share opinions and information of all kinds (documents, videos, etc). The Forums can be highly customized in order to adapt to the specific needs of each client. The customizations can be both graphic and functional and it is possible to add external components (e.g. login modules for strong authentication , captcha modules, etc) to expand their functionality and possibly connect to existing company systems (eg LDAP, Active Directory, etc).

At the request of many customers over the years, numerous web forum projects have been created in order to import a forum in the private area (in the reserved area a discussion forum is set up that will use the same authentication as the ‘user on the site so that the latter does not have to enter the password again) or publishes the customer’s website in order to favor collaboration between internal resources (in the case of an intranet forum) or between users of the portal (in the case of public forums).
