Long Beach, CA – In the month of May alone, Laserfiche, a leading provider of digital document and records management systems, has won the business of five new California cities: the City of Brawley, the City of Oroville, the City of Tehachapi, the City of Petaluma and the City of Westminster. Stephen Weinberg, Laserfiche’s regional sales manager for California, attributes this success to the fact that Laserfiche has obtained government certification year after year for each new version of its software, demonstrating its commitment to government customers. Laserfiche now works with over 200 cities in the state of California, and with thousands more cities across the U.S. and around the world.

“I believe that Laserfiche really stands out to city governments because we help them ensure compliance with freedom of information legislation and open public records laws by offering products like WebLink, Web Access and Audit Trail,” Weinberg said. “Laserfiche software is built on the Microsoft® platform and integrates easily with the software city governments use every day. We also have a team of in-house experts who work with their IT departments and staff on an ongoing basis.”

Weinberg added that most of his municipal customers want the stability of an established document management vendor they can trust. Laserfiche has been a successful private company for more than 20 years. According to Forrester Research, Inc., Laserfiche takes a “less is more” approach and focuses on ease of use, eliminating file cabinets and, most importantly, affordability. In uncertain economic times, solutions that streamline business processes across the enterprise are quite appealing because of the short- and long-term cost savings they provide. Paperless alternatives are also popular because they contribute to “green” initiatives that focus on saving paper and reducing energy consumption.
