Implementation and Training
Implementation
Cloudpermit is an out-of-the-box SaaS solution purpose-built for local government building departments. The implementation process is standardized, while considering the specific and unique needs of each client.

Implementation typically takes between 4-8 weeks. Little to no IT support is required from the client.

Training
Cloudpermit provides training for end-users and administrative users throughout the implementation of the software. Training takes between 4-6 hours and is done in the client’s uniquely configured environment.

Maintenance and Support
Maintenance
Maintenance is included with the annual subscription fee. Cloudpermit updates the software every 3-4 weeks, for a minimum of 12 updates per year. Updates are managed by Cloudpermit’s development team, requiring no effort from the client’s end-users or IT staff. Updates are hot-patched, meaning there is no system downtime for end-users.
