There’s nothing easier than finding
the right colleague in Bitrix24
People around You
In Bitrix24, people are the center of attention. In the employee directory, you can easily find contact information or filter the list to find the right person for your inquiry. Clicking on an employee in the list navigates to the profile page of that employee. All public information about the employee is visible and there are options to initiate an instant message or leave a comment in the person's blog or photo gallery.
Aside from being a popular and convenient tool inside the system, the employee directory allows export to Excel and synchronization with Outlook and CardDAV. Synchronize your contact list with your iPhone, iPad, or Android device and you'll always have the current contact data at your fingertips!
Employee Search
Finding an employee in Bitrix24 does not even require touching the keyboard. The click-through company structure takes users straight to where they need to go, and there is also an alphabetical index. The list of employees may be filtered by position, and search can also be carried out by any part of the employee's name in this section or in the global search box.
Company Structure
The company structure represents the hierarchy of the organization with departments and sub-departments. You can open up a specific department and determine which employee is the one most relevant to the issue at hand.
Subordination in the structure influences many intranet functions: to whom reports are sent, who can delegate tasks to whom, etc. Department heads can see all the tasks of their subordinates.
Access Permissions
Employees only see that information which they are permitted to see. Permissions can be granted to company departments, workgroups, individual users, or to users assigned to pre-defined roles (moderators, group owners, observers, responsible persons, etc.).
Bitrix 24 lets you show or hide workgroups, documents, CRM contacts, and practically any other item in the system. Access permissions also work in search; that is, search results to which a given user does not have access will not show up in the search suggestions or results.
Collaboration in the Extranet
Bitrix24 allows collaborative work not only with coworkers, but also with external users – partners, clients, contractors, etc. Inviting external users is as easy as inviting them to a workgroup, and after they have joined, these third party users are visible in a separate list, so that you can always be aware of who is working in the Extranet.
Records Management (Lists)
Lists help you manage record-based data directly in the front end of the intranet. Suppliers' directories, product catalogs, expense items, etc. Filters, sorting, column display, group editing, easy assignment of access permissions, import and export - Lists have exhaustive set of settings.
Web Forms*
The Web Forms module provides functions for creating and publishing web forms (surveys, request and comment forms etc.). With Web Forms you can gather any type of data inside and outside your company in a most convenient way! *Available in self-hosted versions of Bitrix24.
e-Learning*
The e-Learning feature enables you to create online training courses, conduct tests, and certify users. You can create an unlimited number of online training courses and tests for your employees or people you invite in your extranet. All results achieved by an employee / participant are registered and can be tracked in a journal. *Available in self-hosted versions of Bitrix24.
Advanced Integration
Bitrix24 integrates closely with MS Outlook tasks, contacts, and calendars (the two-way integration utilizes SharePoint lists based on SOAP). The MS Exchange Server 2007/2010 Connector serves to synchronize calendars, tasks and contacts in your intranet from MS Exchange Server. Besides, Bitrix24 integrates with Google and Apple products through its support of CalDAV and CardDAV formats. Our product also supports Active Directory/LDAP integration which provides your portal with a centralized method of data management.
Product customization & Source Code Availability*

Besides several layouts and color schemes, you can create and manage an unlimited number of templates for your Bitrix24. *Available in self-hosted versions of Bitrix24.
Multi Department*
This extremely useful feature allows separating versions of intranet portals for each division or department. This functionality was specially designed for companies with multiple offices and branch locations which need to have a larger degree of autonomy. In essence, each branch can have its own intranet that has a separate structure and design. Employees can get access to their company's intranet, the intranet of their department, and, depending on the settings, the intranets of other departments. *Available in self-hosted versions of Bitrix24.
