Money Saving Software

I have been using Myusage.com software for over 10 years and am extremely happy with it. It not only allows me to see daily electric usage I can tell if one day has more usage than normal and catch any problems early. As an example to that previous comment, in 2012 I had a hot water leak under the house that I was able to catch within 24 hours, if I wasn't using the Myusage.com software it could have been a month before I realized there was a problem when my electric bill finally came. As I also work for an electric utility, I've seen first hand how our customers have been able to see daily usage and conserve energy which builds a positive relationship between the utility and customer. Wouldn't use anyone else for electric prepaid software.

PROS

Cost savings, Customer appreciation and Education on Energy Usage.

CONS

There may be areas to improve the product but at this time I can't think of any.

Reason for choosing MyUsage

At the time of selecting the product Myusage.com had the best product with the meter types our utility uses and then years later after reviewing competitors products and Myusage.com we determined that Myusage.com is far ahead of the other products on the market.

Thank you Doug! You are a valued customer and we appreciate you! Thank you for your business.

Exceleron is top-notch products with top-notch service to support it.

As I already stated, bad debt were reduced dramatically. Customers monitor and pay what they want when they need it. Truthfully, these are our most knowledgeable customers because they do routinely monitor their usage. A traditional bill customer tends to forget the harsh weather days (hot and cold) by the time they receive their monthly billing. Then they say "No way I used that much. The weather wasn't bad at all."

PROS

We have used the pre-pay product with huge success for seven years. The product is a win-win for the utility and the customer. Bad debt has been reduced by more than 80% from 2013 even through the COVID-19 period. Customers are able to properly budget and reduce their energy consumption by monitoring their usage on a daily/weekly or monthly basis. Can't say enough good about the product. When we need Exceleron support, they quickly resolve any issues.

CONS

Our integration process was relatively painless. I honestly have nothing negative to say about the product.

Reason for choosing MyUsage

Exceleron had years of experience and had a superior product.

Vendor Response

Thank you Dudley! You are a valued customer and we appreciate you! Thank you for your business.

MyUsage Portal Review by RSE

PROS

It is easy to implement and use this produce. The support we receive is very good and quick to respond. Since we started using this product several years ago, there has been little problem/breakdown of this product. It stays up and seems to always work well.

CONS

I can't think of anything that I don't like about this product. Most of the problems we have had is from user error and just not knowing the product as good as we should or having forgot how to do something. This software has worked well for us.

Reason for choosing MyUsage

They were not ready to roll out the product and it was going to be a year or longer before they were. We were ready and wanting to start right away and Exceleron had this product ready to go and already being used successfully in the utility industry.

Vendor Response

Thank you David! You are a valued customer and we appreciate you! Thank you for your business.

Simple and efficient layout

PROS

The MyUsage Customer Portal holds all data needed for our representatives and customers to monitor their daily utility usage and charges. The simplified layout makes it easy to navigate through the site, allowing our teams to walk customers through the site via phone.

CONS

We found that some of the reports could use additional filter options. Most recently we needed active account emails, but the current report provides ALL emails, there is not an option to filter to active accounts only. We recently started using the credit limit option, we would like to have a comments section within the credit limit as it will help us filter out accounts that do not need to be reviewed for a couple of months.

Vendor Response

Thank you Veronica! You are a valued customer and we appreciate you! Thank you for your business.
