Idetix Software Systems, www.idetix.com, creators of Revize(R) Web Content Management software, will provide web content management software to the City of Bend, Oregon, announced George Cameron, President and CEO of Idetix. "The City of Bend, Oregon has made a major leap in providing quality, cutting edge municipal services to its citizens by choosing to develop its website using Revize. Now the City is able to provide critical information to the citizens of this beautiful community by empowering multiple content providing, non-technical city department staff members to make their essential information instantly available on the Internet," he said.
Commented Julie Price, City of Bend Interim Communications Manager, "It is important for us to provide a very user friendly web site for both the citizen's of Bend and the departments within the City of Bend. By choosing a web content management solution our departments have more control over their content and launch dates for their information."
"The product was exactly what we were looking for," she explained. "It contained everything our Web Advisory Committee had stipulated as a necessity to house our own web site and it was versatile enough to include our wish list, as well. Truly the deciding factory was the price...all this and more for a very fair price what a winning combination. By using the Revize eGov Portal for City Governments we cut our web development costs significantly."
Bend, Oregon is a city of 62,900 located at the foothills of central Oregon's Cascade Mountains, nearly at the geographic center of the state. Located on the edge of the Ponderosa pine forest, visitors from throughout the nation have come to associate Bend with multiple outdoor sports such as fishing, hiking, camping, skiing, and golf. Bend is also Central Oregon's most populated city. Go to www.ci.bend.or.us for more information.
Idetix is the first company to market a commercial off-the-shelf enterprise Web Content Management solution that is a cost-effective, user-friendly software package. In addition, the software has a unique technology marketed as Revize webSpaces(TM) that makes the offering a product of choice for the enterprise who seeks to offer Web Content Management as a hosted solution (i.e., ASP/Service-based computing model) for their diverse computing needs.
Unlike homegrown, forms-based systems, Idetix has commercialized Revize so that business owners can participate in the control of their Web-based initiatives and have a single point of accountability when a problem develops.
Cameron further explained, "We have built Revize with the pragmatic customer in mind. We understand that the purchasing decision for any enterprise, whether large or small must include flexible options that allow the customer to shop for the "best in class" suppliers of both software and Web development services. Idetix has solved this problem with JAVA-based Revize that is a deployment and developer independent solution with a cost that can start in the hundreds, not thousands of dollars per Web Site."
