There is a lot of difference between intranet and extranet. Intranet is basically a private computer network that uses network connectivity and internet protocols within an organization. On the other hand an extranet is also a private network but it involves the organization as well as its partners like suppliers, vendors, partners, customers etc. The differences are:
- Intranet does not use Public telecommunications system
- Extranet is extended to specific users outside a company, unlike intranet
- Extranet is a good B2B and B2C tool whereas intranet is not.

An Extranet is an extended Intranet. The difference is that an Extranet unlike an Intranet allow some public or partner access to information or services held.

The clue is in the name ('Extra').

The intranet is internal network of any organization whereas the extranet is the external network which means that some authorised persons can access the organization's intranet..
