Kind of depends on what you mean by "intranet," but a Drupal instance, 
with access limited only to employees (and maybe business partners), 
sounds a lot like an Intranet to me.  For internal access only, put it 
behind a firewall.  For finer grained access control, and/or for 
remote/outside access, require log in for all access.

Beyond that, it's more a matter of what functions you want.
