Board reviews Brightly software offer, defers decision to next meeting
Summary
The board reviewed a discounted Brightly software contract (about $4,000 off, annual cost reported just under $8,000 for unlimited users) and compared other vendors; members were asked to review the contract online and the decision was deferred to the next meeting.
The town board reviewed an offer from Brightly for a municipal software program and discussed pricing comparisons with other vendors. The chair said Brightly offered a $4,000 discount on its proposal; the annual cost with the discount was described as just under $8,000 for unlimited users. Board members noted other vendors ranged from under $6,000 to nearly $28,000 annually and that many competitors charge per-user fees.
Members did not take action at the July 1 meeting. The chair asked board members to review the printed contract and use the provided direct link to the vendor site; the board will reconvene the discussion and aim to decide at the next meeting after members have time to review available materials and pricing comparisons.
