The City of Meridian, Idaho (“Meridian”) is considered one of the fastest-growing cities in the U.S. and has received numerous recognitions, including a ranking by Money.com as one of the best places to live in 2019 and 2020. With a population of almost 115,000, Meridian realized that managing 200 various Microsoft Office files during each budgeting cycle was an inefficient process to meet the demands of their growing community.
