Some customers get behind or pay ahead and pay different amounts than the bill so being able to see that activity helps me make sure their account is correct. I also like that when customers pay online through GovPortal it transfers over to Rural Billing. This has been super helpful so I don't miss customer payments. > > **Cons**: So far I have not come across anything I have had problems with. > > Since I took over our sewer department, I have had to learn how to use this software and it has been super easy and I haven't had much problem with figuring it out. My hard drive recently crashed and customer support was able to help me get back on track and it took no time\! ----- ### "I have had a good experience with the software." — 4.0/5 > **Stephen** | *4 January 2016* > > Most features are good but there are a couple that could be somewhat different. Meter changes and readings are a big concern here. Changing out meters and entering new readings are impossible if we are reading to do billing. ----- ### "Very User Friendly" — 5.0/5 > **Neta** | *10 April 2023* | Utilities | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: This product is very user friendly and easy to navigate.
