As the world digitises, governments must innovate their operations to deliver the highest standard of service. OpenGov offers cloud software products to help governments manage performance, improve budgeting, and visualise operational intelligence, as well as providing comprehensive open data.

OpenGov is the leader in local government software. Its cloud-based products, which aided a number of public agencies through the pandemic, include citizen services, procurement, budgeting and planning capabilities - made comprehensive by a series of strategic acquisitions. The company's coherent and integrated software solution significantly reduces the stress on government systems, allowing them to work smarter and better for their citizens.

OpenGov serves over 1,600 governments across the US, and continues to secure new clients. It also has made several partnerships towards improving its range of services which will enable it to remain a powerful tool for governments wishing to digitally transform.
