Looking for suggestions on a platform whether paid or open-source that would provide a intranet-like solution for document sharing, blog, events posting, etc.

Google Apps/Doc is not an option, needs to look somewhat professional and hosted on our domain. Any suggestions or recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Alfresco or Nuxeo are probably the two open source projects closest to Sharepoint. I tend to particularly like Alfresco (we package it as a free download for BitNami) because of the out of the box network drive integration for Windows clients (it can be a bit tricky to configure though)

It really depends upon what's important to you.

As far as the most Sharepoint-like solution goes, IMO Al Fresco is it (that's good to some, but bad to others... depends on what you need).

For publishing of documents, Drupal and Joomla would be a better choice, and they can be extended very well with plugins provided by their large and active communities.

If your need is tied to business process management -- such as oversight on active projects, then a product such as Active Collab would be a better fit. It's not very Sharepoint like, but many people try to build things in Sharepoint that are ready to roll in other off-the-shelf solutions.

Good luck. Have fun checking out these various solutions!

You might want to try Knowledgetree, Liferay or Alfresco. Depends on your needs, but could even be good idea to use Redmine, Drupal, or Joomla. It quite depends on the case, people to maintain it, etc.
