What Our Customers Say
“The Township of Perth South Building Department switched to Land Manager in the summer of 2020, and we have enjoyed the benefits of this program since. The program is very user-friendly, but the support staff at Direct IT are always quick to respond to any of our support needs. With the mobility of Inspection Manager, we can create inspection reports on-site, saving time during a busy construction season.”
“The Township of Ashfield-Colborne-Wawanosh has been using Land Manager since 2018. At that time, we were using the program to organize building permits and inspection requests related to the permits. As our department has grown, we have now expanded our use of Land Manager to be our main database for all building information. We are pleased with how the program allows our department to remain organized and streamlined. The staff is exceptional with prompt and professional customer service.”
