VICTORIA, BC – VertiGIS, a leading geospatial technology company, publicly unveiled a new deployment option for Geocortex products at the 2021 Esri User Conference. During a live presentation at the event, Chief Technology Officer Drew Millen announced ArcGIS Online® users can now enrich their ArcGIS Web AppBuilder® apps with hosted Geocortex widgets. The hosted widget offerings allow Geocortex Workflow, Geocortex Reporting, and Geocortex Printing to be deployed in the ArcGIS Online Edition of Web AppBuilder.
Esri customers using Web AppBuilder in the cloud via ArcGIS Online dramatically outnumber those deploying on-premises solutions. Now those customers have a powerful avenue to bolster the capabilities of their Web AppBuilder apps, which was previously only available in the developer edition of Web AppBuilder. ArcGIS Online users can use Geocortex Workflow – an industry-leading process automation tool – to build their own widgets and customize their apps without coding. Best-in-class report templates can be authored with Geocortex Reporting and integrated into web apps, alongside printing tools that generate PDFs of the current map using the powerful engine in Geocortex Printing.
VertiGIS is currently working to provide this same functionality for Esri’s ArcGIS Experience Builder®.
“This is an exciting time for organizations using ArcGIS Online,” said Drew Millen, CTO of VertiGIS North America. “Previously, only on-premises ArcGIS Web AppBuilder users could access and deploy purposeful third-party widgets. This new functionality in Esri’s ArcGIS Marketplace allows all users the same level of flexibility and creativity when creating new GIS applications for their organizations. This also raises the level of what is possible with GIS in the cloud, and we can’t wait to see how the community will use Geocortex’s widgets in their apps to solve their biggest challenges.”
Users can deploy Geocortex widgets to their ArcGIS Online organizations via the ArcGIS Marketplace.
