Google Maps Builder added to CMS Logic

May 17th, 2010

We just launched our new Google Maps builder in our CMS-Logic product.  This allows our customers to build their own Google Maps in their websites, and add pushpins to the map automatically.  We added a search to the map builder, so that you can build a searchable map for your website in minutes.   A great use for this new feature would be to add a “Dealer Locator” feature to your website.

The Google Maps module is now live for all Delaware.Net CMS/Ecommerce customers as a free, automatic upgrade.    These automatic feature upgrades come about once per month (or more frequently), and this is one of the major benefits of using our CMS over other open-source solutions.    Free upgrades, free support, free training, and better integration.

Training videos for the new Google Maps builder are being uploaded today, so you will be able to see training videos directly in our on-demand help system.

City of Harrington, Del., Chooses Delaware.Net

October 21st, 2009

The City of Harrington, Delaware recently awarded Delaware.Net the contract to rebuild their website.    Harrington researched web design companies from around the country.     The proposal from another competing municipal website design vendor for the city’s website was over $30,000 and a included a 3-year contract commitment for hosting the site.   By contrast, Delaware.Net prepared a strategy for the city to prepare a new website interface, install our proven content management system for cities, a request tracking system, a city Intranet, a new police department website, a mass emailing system, live training, and much more.  Delaware.Net saved the city over $15,000 with the project, and was able to offer more features and better support. » Read more: City of Harrington, Del., Chooses Delaware.Net

Alternative to CivicPlus for City Websites

October 18th, 2009

ICON Enterprises (doing business as ‘CivicPlus’) is a company in Kansas that specializes in building municipal websites.   My company (Delaware.Net) competes with companies like this from around the country when we bid on municipal website design projects.    We lost a couple of prospective new projects to CivicPlus in 2007 when we were in the middle of producing our own Content Management System (CMS) for government websites.     But in 2008, we had completed building and testing our CMS system for eGovernment websites, and we have won many municipal projects from around the USA ever since. Our new system is called CivicLogic. In this article, I will explain why our solution is better than some of the other options out there, and how we can help municipalities to migrate to our solution.

Here are some of the differences between us and our competitors;

Online Bill Presentment and Payment (OBPP) for Municipalities

August 12th, 2008

Delaware.Net has built many websites for municipalities, and one of the major reasons why we are chosen for projects is our integration of the public website with complaint systems, content management systems, mass emailing systems, intranets, project management and – online bill-pay systems (or OBPP). A solid municipal website design effort requires all of these components to be successful, and an online bill-payment is one of the most important features that municipalities need. In this article, I will provide an overview of what is involved in building one of these systems, so that your city/town can plan how to integrate a bill-pay system. » Read more: Online Bill Presentment and Payment (OBPP) for Municipalities

City of Rehoboth Beach, Delaware Chooses Delaware.Net

July 21st, 2008

Since I was a kid, I have fond memories of going to the Delaware beaches. Rehoboth Beach has always been a special place for me. The boardwalk, the shops, restaurants, all of it. It still has that charm that brings a flood of Pennsylvanians and Delawareans to the beach. Rehoboth IS the beach for many folks.
