Differentiate between intranets and extranets. How are such systems beneficial to marketing managers?

What will be an ideal response?

Information distribution involves entering information into databases and making it available in a timely, user-friendly way. Many firms use company intranet and internal CRM systems to facilitate this process. These systems provide ready access to research and intelligence information, customer contact information, reports, shared work documents, and more. In addition, companies are increasingly allowing key customers and value-network members to access account, product, and other data on demand through extranets. Suppliers, customers, resellers, and select other network members may access a company's extranet to update their accounts, arrange purchases, and check orders against inventories to improve customer service.
