Deployment Modes for Siebel Business Applications

The two major groups of Siebel Business Applications are:

• Applications usually used by internal employees of an enterprise.

  These are called employee applications and generally run in high-interactivity mode. Examples are Siebel Call Center and Siebel Partner Relationship Manager.

• Applications usually used by customers or partners of an enterprise.

  These are called customer and partner applications and typically run in standard-interactivity mode. Examples are Siebel eSales (a customer application) and Siebel PRM Partner Portal (a partner application).
