What we do
Astun Technology's iShare data integration and publishing platform enables public sector organisations such as the Police and Local Authorities to make the most of their own data, extracting it, transforming it and publishing it both internally and externally. It can serve call centres via systems integration and citizens via the web with a rich mix of information and maps while delivering real savings through avoidable contact and transactional services. iShare also provides a direct communications channel to citizens that subscribe to its automated 'My Alerts' service. Easily configured and completely automated iShare is a unique mix of the Astun's own purpose built modules and the best Open Source components. In use with over twenty authorities the award winning iShare platform continues to evolve to meet growing e-services needs.
