OpenGov Acquires Permitting and Licensing Cloud Leader ViewPoint

September 5, 2019 By Technologies.org Leave a Comment

Today, OpenGov, the leader in enterprise cloud solutions for government, expands its market-leading platform with the acquisition of ViewPoint. ViewPoint Cloud – the industry’s fastest-growing and only multi-tenant SaaS software for permitting and licensing – will be integrated into The OpenGov Cloud™, broadening OpenGov’s reach and impact on the public sector.

“Governments deserve innovative and trusted technology to power how they operate and drive value to the residents they serve,” said OpenGov CEO Zac Bookman. “Not only are OpenGov and ViewPoint among the fastest-growing GovTech companies, we are each the only multi-tenant cloud platforms of scale in our respective categories. I could not be more excited for our joint future and to bring this incredible software to every government that wants to take advantage of it.”

“I co-founded this company with the idea that governments deserve cutting-edge technology,” said ViewPoint CEO Nasser Hajo. “ViewPoint has since grown to become the cloud-based permitting and licensing market leader, stretching the boundaries of what’s possible to bring efficiency, transparency, and civic engagement to public agencies. OpenGov is the leading enterprise cloud software company in the GovTech sector, and we could not be more thrilled at the opportunity to join forces and continue building the technology that will power governments for decades to come.”

ViewPoint is OpenGov’s third announced acquisition since 2016. In October of 2017, OpenGov acquired Peak Democracy – the leader in citizen engagement technology. In April of 2016, OpenGov acquired Ontodia – the leading provider of open data solutions using CKAN, the premier open-source standard used by thousands of governments around the world. These solutions have since been integrated into The OpenGov Cloud™, which is now the premier, end-to-end Budgeting, Performance, Communications, and Reporting cloud solution for government.

This acquisition comes on the heels of OpenGov closing a $51 million Series D financing round led by experienced GovTech investors Weatherford Capital and 8VC, with participation from existing investor Andreessen Horowitz. The company has now raised more than $140 million from Andreessen Horowitz, 8VC, JC2 Ventures, Emerson Collective, and other top investors since its founding in 2012.
