“By moving services to the cloud, governments can modernize their operations, uplevel service delivery and redefine citizen engagement, rather than spend time maintaining servers, networks, and virtual machines,” said Renato Mascardo, Chief Technology Officer at Accela. “We have heard from government IT and business leaders alike about the need for digital tools to respond to fast-changing, mission-critical demands, and we are laser-focused on creating user-centered technology solutions to help our customers put the needs of their communities first during these challenging times. The trend toward cloud adoption has never been stronger.”

Accela recently launched a new SaaS Upgrade Program designed to help state and local governments more quickly and easily move legacy systems to the cloud to bolster resilience, scalability, and efficiency. The initiative helps agencies transition from on-premise systems to any of its cloud applications powered by Microsoft Azure. Over the past year, Accela also expanded integrations with fellow tech giants Microsoft and Esri to help governments leverage spatial data and cloud analytics to make more proactive, data-driven decisions.
