MUNSIS PROGRAM

Extend access to key MUNIS information for employees, citizens and business via the internet.  Why do you need internet access?  You can alleviate routine requests for information by having the data accessible on-line.  This is a substantial time saver for your staff.  You can extend your hours and provide convenient access for your customers.  Internet access is no longer just a nice thing to have...it is expected.

Like all things emerging, the internet is constantly shifting the way in which we conduct the business of our lives, including the business of government.  As a result, the industry has coined a new phrase to describe government on the web...e-government.Success in the realm of e-government is going to depend in large part on whom you choose as the architect of your initiative.  MUNIS OnLine is ready to be your partner.  Wouldn't you prefer a company that has years of experience and an excellent track record with public sector software as the provider of your internet solution?

How it works

  • Access can be granted through a link on your web site OR MUNIS can host your web site and provide content management services.

  • MUNIS hosts all needed software and manages all client traffic. MUNIS data is quickly passed upon request between your MUNIS server and our Data Center via a secure connection and then on to the requesting party.  Of course, if you utilize MUNIS as an ASP (Application Service Provider) your data will already be housed in our data center.

  • MUNIS provides the Help Desk for you, our customer.  Our team of professionals will be there to assist you with any issues regarding the MUNIS OnLine product.

  • Our team of professionals will meet with you and help you establish the best solution.

MUNIS Internet Advantages

  • Continuity & Functionality - MUNIS already provides your software, therefore we know how to extract the information straight from the MUNIS database.  For instance, when a customer views a utility bill, they have the ability to view installments, interest owed, abatements and underlying bill detail and history.  This is much more useful than a simple amount due.

  • Knowledge & Stability - We have decades of experience with public sector software and can offer much more in the way of understanding your business needs and processes than the recent dot com companies.  You can also rest assured that we will provide you with a stable product backed by our strong commitment to this industry.

  • Current Information - The information on our web site will be current because of the direct connection to your MUNIS data.  MUNIS OnLine information is reflected in real-time.

  • Support - Because we provide both your software support and your MUNIS OnLine support, you only need to call one number for assistance...MUNIS.

  • Subscription Service - This is not a license, therefore you are only charged based on the applications of MUNIS which you already own.

  • Secure Connection - MUNIS provides access to your data over secure connections.
