Solutions for Local Government
Squiz provides web content management and enterprise search solutions for local government in New Zealand, Australia and the UK.
Our CMS and business integration engine Squiz Matrix is typically deployed as a council’s enterprise web content management and web engagement platform, running all the council’s public websites and intranet. Squiz Matrix is provided as free, open source software under the standard GPL Open Source licence, with obvious economies arising from zero licence fees.
Squiz Matrix supports distributed content authoring, providing two user interfaces as standard:
- a simple edit interface for content authors / editors, and
- a powerful web management / development interface for your web team or web manager.
Squiz Matrix is also a flexible business integration engine, providing a variety of integration options, allowing for the creation, modification and retrieval of system content from external databases and web servers, and for social content management.
Squiz Matrix is increasingly deployed with Funnelback Search. Funnelback enables people to find key information held on websites, intranets, databases and many other internal information repositories. This drives greater ROI on your information assets, more satisfied users and more efficient and productive staff.
Funnelback is provided under a simple, tiered licence, with fees based on the size of the collections to be searched.
Both Squiz Matrix and Funnelback can be deployed on physical or virtual servers, self or Squiz hosted, with robust DR options ranging from cloud-hosted DR backups incrementally updated, to full replication with geographic redundancy.
