Borough moves finance software to cloud, citing server replacement savings
Summary
Council authorized contracting with Edmunds GovTech to migrate from server-based to cloud-based financial software with a first-year investment of $16,250; the annual maintenance will rise from $4,200 to $5,000.
Borough Manager C. Michael Foote told council the administration proposed transitioning the borough’s financial software from a server-hosted system to a cloud-hosted system to avoid future server replacement costs estimated at $15,000–$20,000 every five years.
Foote said the new cloud software will offer more capabilities, will be available for installation in 2026, and that he negotiated a five-installment payment plan. "The new software will be hosted in the cloud and will save money on server replacements," the minutes record. The first-year investment was stated as $16,250 and annual maintenance was said to increase from $4,200 to $5,000.
Councilmember K. Brannon moved to authorize the borough manager to contract with Edmunds GovTech for the transition; Councilmember D. Swisher seconded. Councilmember L. Shartle voted no and the motion carried 6–1.
