Why So Many Counties Choose Vision:
What Vision CAMA Users Are Saying
“Every Assessor hopes when they purchase a CAMA system that the vendor will meet their expectations (a successful conversion and a product that works as advertised). My experience with Vision CAMA has exceeded my expectations. We received a successful conversion and were able to go live ahead of schedule. The product works as promised and they continue exceeding expectations by releasing enhanced versions utilizing customer feedback. I have been in the assessment field for over 30 years and working with Vision has been the best customer experience to date. I also really like their Mass Update Tool.”

“To give you a little history, our team at Crawford County loved Vision 6. It was the Rock of Gibraltar. Stable, reliable…you turned it on and it just worked. That’s why we bought it to begin with. Back in the day it was known as the best product in the business and came with the best support. The only issue with 6 now is that it’s built on Oracle which is no longer supported by Windows, so we knew it was just a matter of time before it went the way of the dinosaurs.
With that said, we’ve now been live on Vision 8 for a few months now and we’re very happy to see the same level of stability and reliability in 8 that we saw in 6. In other words, 6 was like an old Windows XP product, and 8 is functioning a lot more like the latest version of Windows 10. One thing we should point out is how many customizations we had made in Vision 6 that allowed us to replicate our old valuing charts. All of those items had to be carefully carried over during the upgrade process and your support team’s level of communication as we addressed all of those items was great.
Through the process they learned to keep us updated on how things were going, and by the end of the process had really earned our trust that we were launching a solid product. It’s also comforting to know that our community is now lined up to receive the latest releases and updates as the product continues to advance.”

“Our team was very happy with the implementation process which went really well. We were one of Vision’s first clients in Florida, and worked closely with the team as they customized their CAMA system to include all of Florida’s specific processes. We felt confident that Vision had addressed all of those items as we went along, and had everything we needed by the time we were ready to go live. My favorite Vision feature is the reporting tool. It’s really easy to run and access all of my Department of Revenue state files.”

Sumter County, Florida
“We had been with our previous CAMA provider since 1999 and the level of support towards the end had gotten to such a poor quality…In comparison, when we have a question for Vision we pick up the phone or send a quick email and the response is almost immediate. There’s someone right there to walk us through it. We have been so thrilled. The service is outstanding. It’s such an incredible experience to no longer be held back by our technology. Your CAMA system is supposed to make your life easier and assist you in performing your job and that’s exactly what Vision does. It’s a world of difference.”

Additional Solutions
Vision Web Portal
Increase taxpayer transparency by sharing your CAMA and GIS data with taxpayers online.
Many of our communities opt to use this feature to improve communication with the public and reduce the time burden of fielding inquiries within the office. This feature has become especially popular after the COVID-19 pandemic, as it enables communities to stay connected to taxpayers while reducing in-office foot traffic.
It is also especially popular for communicating changes to values affiliated with a reassessment process. In fact, many Vision communities’ change of value notices will direct taxpayers to the Vision Web Portal for further information.
CUSTOMIZE YOUR PUBLIC DATA
-
The Vision Web Portal offers the CAMA administrator the utmost flexibility to control what data appears publicly (ownership information, sales information, construction details, sketches, photos and more).
UPDATE YOUR DATA AUTOMATICALLY
-
The Vision Web Portal comes with an automated data loader, enabling each Community to set up its preferred cadence for data updates: “set it and forget it!”
HIDE SENSITIVE TAXPAYER DATA
-
Vision CAMA is fully configurable to suppress sensitive or non-disclosure taxpayer records from the public portal. A common example is suppressing the personal information of law enforcement.
LOG-IN AND PAYWALL OPTIONS
-
Your community can determine whether citizens are able to access the page publicly or whether a log-in is required (with an optional paywall for generating revenue for your community). 95% of our communities include free access to the portal, but some states do generate revenue by charging for access.
