Novotx vs. Cityworks (Trimble)

An even better integration with ArcGIS

While Cityworks morphs into various Trimble products, we're still building on Esri.

See the Magic

Acquired by Trimble in 2019, Cityworks (technically Trimble Unity Maintain) is a massive product owned by an even more massive company. As the original Cityworks product continues to morph into the Trimble ecosystem, Novotx continues to deliver new ideas and consistent innovation to utilities and local governments.

Consistently delivering innovation for 20 years.

Why choose Novotx over Cityworks?

Cityworks (Trimble Unity) is a huge platform that does a lot. With that, comes the complexities of getting someone to hear you.

Navigating tech support and getting someone to care about your good ideas in a global, publicly-traded company can be tricky.

Easier access to better support

When you call us for support you'll be talking with the same people who are already familiar with your system and your deployment, likely in the same time zone as you.

Driven by you, not shareholders

We're proud to be self-funded, built from the ground up, never acquired. With that comes the freedom to build what our customers want, not what our shareholders think the market wants.

Fresh, modern tech

Old houses can have good bones, but old software does not. Our smaller customer base and focused product portfolio lets us deliver fresh ideas quickly.
