Sitebuilder

Deliver engaging digital experiences for your customers and communities.

Deliver excellent customer experiences with great digital content.

Traditional council website projects are often expensive and take a long time to build, while delivering underwhelming results. To solve this, Datacom has developed sitebuilder — an all-in-one content management system (CMS) specifically for councils.

Our cloud-based CMS gets your website up and running using high quality, best practice templates at low cost, zero friction and in a fixed timeframe. Our specialist team looks after design, development, infrastructure and security, so you can focus on creating engaging content. In addition to building your primary website, we offer a variety of templates designed specifically for smaller sub-sites that councils often need, so you can simplify your IT management and look after all your content in one place.

Creating accessible and mobile-compatible websites relies on advanced knowledge of web administration and languages such as HTML and CSS. Our easy to use drag-anddrop 'sitebuilder' technology enables you to create beautiful and accessible websites that work on any device, without needing to be an expert.

Help your community access vital information and services while having a great customer experience on a responsive council website.
