Investing in Better Local Government Starts with the Right Software
Every local government is different. That’s why every FUNDVIEW proposal is tailored to your organization — your departments, your users, and the solutions you actually need.
But one thing stays the same: the cost of outdated software is almost always higher than the investment in better software.
Why You Won’t Find a Price List Here
Every city is different — and a dozen factors move the investment up or down. Publishing a single number wouldn’t be accurate, and it wouldn’t be helpful.
Instead, we’ll build a personalized quote based on exactly what your organization needs — nothing you don’t.
Every factor adds up to a quote built only for you.
What Actually Determines the Cost of FUNDVIEW?
Six things shape every proposal. Here’s exactly what they are — so there are no surprises.
Software Modules
Choose only the departments and capabilities you need — from GL and Payroll to Utility Billing, Court, and Permits.
Number of Users
Designed to support organizations of every size — from a two-person clerk’s office to a full-service city team.
Implementation
Configuration, data migration, onboarding, and training — scoped to get you live with confidence, not chaos.
Integrations
Connections to the systems you already rely on — so payments, readings, and records flow without re-keying.
Ongoing Support
Real, U.S.-based people helping your team succeed long after go-live — not a ticket queue and a chatbot.
Future Growth
A platform built to grow with your community — add modules, users, and capabilities whenever you’re ready.
The Costs You Can’t Afford to Ignore
Outdated software has a price too. It just doesn’t show up on an invoice — it shows up in your team’s day.
Manual Processes
- Hours spent reconciling
- Entering the same information twice
- Searching for documents
Disconnected Systems
- Departments working in silos
- Duplicate data
- Conflicting reports
Delayed Decisions
- Waiting on reports
- Waiting on approvals
- Waiting on information
Legacy Software
- Rising maintenance
- Limited innovation
- Expensive customizations
- Growing security risk
Staff Burnout
- Doing work outside the ERP
- Training around workarounds
- Knowledge trapped with one person
These are real costs.They’re just harder to see.
So What’s the Return on the Investment?
Instead of asking “what does it cost?” — imagine what you’d save.

Research Shows the Real Cost of Standing Still
Don’t take it from a vendor. Here’s what respected, third-party voices in local government say about modernization.
Government Finance Officers Association
GFOA’s best-practice guidance frames technology modernization as a core part of financial management and operational resilience — not an IT side project — and urges finance leaders to plan ERP investments around long-term value.

NLC research on digital transformation documents the rising expectations residents place on local governments — and the operational strain on cities still running on disconnected, aging systems.
Read the ResearchModernization & Resident Expectations
CDG’s work on modernization, cybersecurity, and operational efficiency shows that legacy systems increasingly translate into higher risk and slower service — while modern platforms free staff to focus on residents.

Government Technology’s reporting on ERP modernization, staffing shortages, cloud adoption, and AI readiness highlights why cities that delay upgrades fall behind on both cost and capability.

ICMA’s research on operational effectiveness and workforce challenges points to strategic technology planning as one of the clearest levers managers have to do more with limited staff.

Across every independent voice in local government, the conclusion is consistent: the cost of staying on outdated systems compounds — in dollars, risk, and staff time.

Frequently Asked Questions
Because ERP pricing is genuinely customized. Your investment depends on the modules you choose, your number of users, implementation and migration scope, integrations, and more. Publishing one number would be inaccurate for nearly every city. Instead, we build a personalized quote around your actual needs.
FUNDVIEW is known for reasonable, low-risk implementations — a decisive advantage over legacy vendors whose projects can stretch 12–18 months or longer. Your exact timeline depends on the modules, data migration, and training involved, and we’ll scope it clearly in your proposal.
Yes. FUNDVIEW is modular by design. Start with the departments and capabilities you need today — General Ledger, Payroll, Utility Billing, Municipal Court, Permits, and more — and add others whenever you’re ready.
FUNDVIEW is a true cloud platform — a real browser application with no VPN, no servers to maintain, automatic updates and backups, level-3 encryption, and two-factor authentication. It’s built for the cloud, not a legacy app with a browser layer bolted on.
Unlimited U.S.-based live support from real people who know local government — plus a knowledge base, ongoing training resources, and state and federal compliance updates. Support and customer success are part of the investment, not an upsell.
Absolutely. The platform is designed to grow with your organization. As your community grows or your needs change, you can add modules and users without re-implementing or switching systems.
Yes. Data conversion is a core service, and we have deep experience moving cities off legacy systems — including Tyler/Incode and other common platforms. Migration scope is part of your personalized proposal so you know exactly what to expect.
Primarily the number of modules, the volume and condition of the data being migrated, the integrations required, and the amount of configuration and training your team needs. We scope each of these transparently so there are no surprises.
