What is Municipal Magic?
Municipal Magic is a powerful communication and document management system that assists municipalities in seamlessly delivering their services to the internet using their existing word processor and a browser.
Features & Benefits
Content Management
Municipal Magic allows municipal staff to easily
update website content in a timely manner,
using only a browser. Website adminstrators
choose a time frame for information
to be
viewed on the site. Once that time has expired
the content is automatically removed. This
feature saves both time and money and keeps
your web site and Intranet to be current
at all
times. Employees will appreciate the ease of
use and the timely manner in which they can
keep the website updated thus encouraging
them to use this effective
document management and communications tool.
Scalability
Municipal Magic is a flexible solution that is
customized for each Municipality. You are able
to choose from many different modules that
will address your needs today. As needs change
and grow more modules can be added at any time,
simply and cost effectively. This makes it
very easy to have a relevant and fully functional
web site that grows with your needs as a Municipality.
Storage and Security
Documents are saved in a PDF format allowing
the user to quickly save or view them. Not only
are the documents shrunk in size but they can
not be altered in any way. This will save valuable
disk space and secure all of your documents.
Usability
Municipal Magic provides a well-organized, easily
navigatable framework through which any municipality
can present information and services on the
Internet. It also provides employees with a
simple, effective method of staying current
with what's going on internally. Through a
permissions system different employees can
be given access to different areas of the website
and allowed to update only those areas of the
site they should have control over. This gives
everyone a sense of ownership and responsiblity
shich in turn makes for a better website.
