Accela’s SaaS solutions recognized for excellence in innovation and impact on customer success
San Ramon, Calif. (September 19, 2022) – Accela®, the trusted provider of cloud solutions for government, today announced that it was named to the shortlist for the APPEALIE SaaS + Software Awards. Awardees have demonstrated significant product improvements in the last 18 months, and outstanding customer satisfaction and impact.
“Our government agencies need flexible, government-specific technology solutions that empower them to build thriving communities in the face of a myriad of challenges,” said Tom Nieto, chief operating officer of Accela. “Accela’s SaaS solutions provide a powerful foundation for governments to deliver seamless, digital resident services and fulfill the needs of growing communities. This award recognizes Accela’s commitment to helping governments become more strategic and leveraging tech to be more resilient, now and in the future.”
Agencies are increasingly turning to SaaS solutions to expand access to critical information, provide essential services, and increase resident engagement. APPEALIE recognized Accela – specifically its Accela Civic Platform and Civic Applications – for its ability to help governments meet residents’ diverse needs.
Accela’s most recent enhancements of the Civic Platform, which are part of this recognition from APPEALIE, include:
Enhanced staff global search with a consolidated and convenient “Everything Card,” displaying transaction records, documents, locations, license professionals, assets, contacts and parcels, as well as both active and inactive records.
A new capability to access, view, and download the past seven days of EMSE scripting logs, helping validate scripts, manage scripting functions, and diagnose potential issues more easily.
Personalized background screens or images during login to various environments so users always know clearly which environment they are working in.
Deeper integration with CSG Forte payment gateway, allowing EMV terminals to be used at point-of-sale for processing multiple record payments in a single credit card transaction and enabling trust account deposits.
“Like the ever-growing cloud industry, we once again received a record number of entries to our 2022 SaaS Awards. This shortlist represents a key step in selecting our final 2022 software award winners that will be announced later this fall,” commented Arabella Solaybar of APPEALIE.
