Combining with Gravity under the ClearGov brand makes ClearGov the most comprehensive modern finance platform serving local governments, school districts, and state agencies across the United States.

The CB Herald reports that ClearGov and Gravity’s merger contains numerous synergies. “The platform creates one continuous workflow — connecting planning, budgeting, reporting, disclosures, grants, and transparency, and delivers the operational and compliance capabilities that legacy ERP systems were not designed to support. The result is a more efficient, accurate, and connected way for governments to manage their financial operations and engage their communities,” reporter Joseph Wilson writes.
