“We love it! The system is simple to use as it takes our buyers step by step through the process each time.”

“OpenGov Procurement empowers my team — it doesn’t tell us how to do our jobs, it enables us to do them better and faster."

“I’ve been doing this for 25 years, and I have never worked with a company like OpenGov. It has made a world of difference in how we do our daily work. It’s changed my professional life.”

”We now enjoy the significant advantages of electronic bidding — for example reduction in errors, ease of calculations, security, uniformity, consistency, and more.”

“OpenGov makes it easier for smaller, local suppliers to do business with the City of Palm Desert. We help them navigate the process with a shorter, simpler form, which lowers the bar for local businesses to understand and participate in the bidding process”

Did We Mention World-Class Support With 99% Retention?

"Even before we had signed the contract, they built functionality into their platform based on feedback I gave them during their product demos. Continuous improvement means everything to me."

“We loved the process of implementing Procurement because the team at OpenGov helped us work together across departments to get us up and running quickly — a three-month implementation in government is lightning fast.”

“I want to say what a pleasure it has been working with you are your team. It's not often that when users make software suggestions to companies, that company listens, engages, and implements those changes.”

“OpenGov was definitely our software winner of the year for ease of deployment, functionality, ongoing support, and meeting all expectations.”
