Continuum of Care Databases

Collaborate Online Web Database gives everyone on your team a single point of access to organize, store and share critical Continuum of Care (CoC) information online. Many CoC-specific databases are provided or you can create your own databases from scratch. Databases can be easily modified to meet your CoC specific data needs. Now everyone on your team can securely share and manage key business information from one location – quickly and easily.

 

Your data is always accessible from anywhere in the world using the web. Set up your own custom fields, views, and printable reports in minutes. Whether it’s for homeless street or shelter counts, HUD grant tracking, housing inventory, service provider inventory, turnaway reporting, or program rating & ranking, the Web Database is a powerful, yet simple tool that will improve workflow and increase productivity throughout your entire CoC.

 

Databases Specifically for CoC Organizations

 

Collaborate Online includes many custom databases that meet the specific needs of CoC organizations.  Data that must be shared, reported, and analyzed can easily be provided by and accessed by members, all with the utmost security.  For your specific database needs, you can easily develop your own databases, views, and reports or have us do it for you. Either way, developing your databases takes minutes instead of days or weeks.

 

Prepare Your CoC for the HUD Application

 

HUD has recently announced that the 2008 CoC Competition will require an electronic submission of the Application.  However, each CoC must prepare the large amounts of data and content for the application with contributions from many CoC members.  Shorten your information gathering time and be more efficient by exporting your data from Collaborate Online to the HUD system. Continuums that are best organized will score highly in the Competition.

 

Import and Export From Any Database Application

 

Save time and ensure data accuracy by importing and exporting your data directly from any existing spreadsheet or database application. Sort, group and filter your data for multiple views. Quickly create reports for printing and distribution. Use secure permissions to allow team members to view, add, modify and delete only the specific information they need.

 

Relational Database Capability

 

Link several databases together for more powerful and comprehensive information sharing. Link a homeless provider database to an grants database. Manage your CoC from the office, on the road or working at home using the most up-to-date information.
