Cost savings and improved operations on the Cloud
City of Port Coquitlam — a growing municipality in Canada — has become known for its high citizen engagement, partly due to its use of innovative technology.
The Challenge
The city’s IT resources were being diverted from core functions to infrastructure maintenance and data security. They faced high costs of maintaining private data storage infrastructure and it was challenging to staff Unit4 ERP experts to optimize the system.
