Open Point
What it is
Open Point is a web platform combining community engagement with stakeholder relationship management. Its two products can operate independently or together. Community tools include surveys, interactive maps, quick polls, Q&A, budget allocation, idea boards, discussions, and forums. AI-assisted analysis identifies sentiment, themes, and patterns in feedback and other engagement data. Stakeholder management provides constituent profiles, search, email and SMS communications, task management, reports, importing, audit history, and an Outlook add-in. Listed integrations include Outlook, Mailchimp, Campaign Monitor, ArcGIS, and Mapbox, with API integration options also available. Organizations can configure custom data fields, workflows, and branding. Open Point describes use by government, utilities, transportation, energy, and infrastructure teams, and says the service is available in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Australia, and New Zealand. Deployment is cloud-based. The company states ISO 27001 certification, a SOC 2 audit with no noted exceptions, and jurisdiction-based data residency.
