America’s leading Local Government Content Management System partners with ICON™ Software


ICON™ Software is delighted to announce the introduction of CivicPlus to the Australian Local Government marketplace. CivicPlus develops Content Management Systems (CMS) specifically designed for Local Government needs. With 600 Councils using the software across North America, and having won over 50 national awards for their client implementations, CivicPlus is the true leader in the US Government website market.

CivicPlus recognised the need to create a Government centric solution that provided exceptional community engagement and “out-of-the-box” features such as live video streaming for Council meetings, facilities booking, request tracking and community blogs. The latest application from CivicPlus - Citizen Request Tracker© enables immediate registration of customer requests including a Google© Map reference from the customer’s SmartPhone (iPhone) to the website.

Another advantage of the CivicPlus offering is the pricing model - a low annual fee with no upfront licence costs, based on the size of Council, coupled a range of pre-packaged implementation services, much the same as the ICON™ model. The solution offers a range of website templates allowing Councils to build and manage their websites quickly and effectively with very little technical knowledge.

ICON™ will provide sales and support for the CivicPlus suite, if you’re investigating your web presence please give us a call for a demonstration or visit www.civicplus.com for more information.
