About Us
Since 2010, Community Data Solutions has worked alongside Australia’s community services sector to create solutions that reduce complexity and administrative burden, giving organisations more time to focus on the people and communities they support.
We understand that community services are complex, and no two organisations are the same. Our solutions are purpose-built from deep sector experience, while remaining flexible enough to adapt to the unique ways organisations deliver services, engage with communities, and measure outcomes.
We partner with our customers beyond implementation, combining sector knowledge and expertise with practical solutions that help teams work more effectively, make better use of their data, and strengthen the services they provide.
In 2022, Community Data Solutions joined VitalHub, bringing together our local expertise with the resources and innovation of a global health and community services group. Our team is based in Victoria, South Australia, and New South Wales.
Today, more than 300 organisations across Australia trust us to support their work.

“Community Data Solutions, are an awesome team, throughout the whole time we’ve been with CDS, we have had so much help from the team with great customer service, support, online training and guidance.”
Chris Whipps
Weave, NSW
“I had a good feeling about CDS from the start and this feeling was validated over and over. CDS have been exactly the sort of the company that a charity, or any company for that matter, needs as a partner. They bent over backwards to get us over the line and that was not an easy task given the complexity of the platform we were moving from. Every interaction I had with them was excellent and courteous. This project could not have been easy for them. Great work CDS. Great work.”
We acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of Country throughout Australia and recognise their continuing connection to land, waters and culture.
We pay our respects to Elders past, present and emerging.
We believe that cultural safety is defined by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and we are committed to supporting the sector with tools that enable self-determination.
