First Class Service
The customer service during the switch was absolutely fantastic. We were able to get in touch with support many different ways whenever we needed it. The program is so intuitive and the features just make sense. It almost feels like it was customized just for us!
CONSThe transition took a lot of very detailed data gathering and review, but this is to be expected when making a switch of this magnitude. However, they staff at Munibilling were so helpful and patient. Any hiccups were fixed willingly and in a very timely manner. I really have nothing negative to say.
Reasons for switching to MuniBilling
Quickbooks is great for our bookkeeping, and we still use it for those tasks. However, with our growing customer database we needed a software that was more intuitive and flexible for customer service feature needs.

Third transition in two years
Our community was half way through conversion to AMI by Fathom when they shut down. We cobbled things together while seeking a new billing platform, and switched to MuniBilling immediately following the end of a quarterly billing cycle. That gave MuniBilling less than 3 months to complete and test the transition. Fathom left us with a lot of messed up accounts that we were unable to untangle, and it was costing us a lot of missed revenue. While we still had a few small issues when we printed bills through MuniBilling, the vast majority of the garbage had been magically corrected.
PROSUnlike our previous platforms which used modified financial architecture, MuniBilling was constructed from the ground up as a utility billing platform. It is much easier to use and intuitive. We have just completed our first bill run so we still have a lot to learn but our team can operate the platform successfully without days in training sessions or 4" binders filled with processes and screen shots.
CONSWe miss a couple of features from our last platform, particularly the ability to see the meter settings within the account read history. But MuniBilling is always seeking feedback on how to improve the system and their engineering team is looking at modifications to incorporate in future updates. This is not a "take it or leave it" relationship.
Reason for choosing MuniBilling
MuniBilling gave us the lowest cost option among those we investigated, and they had the very best references. The customers we spoke with could not say enough about how their team made it a relatively painless and highly successful transition. Our experience was exactly the same. Also, MuniBilling has a history of not losing clients. I certainly expect we will be with them for a very long time.
Reasons for switching to MuniBilling
Our prior platform was the vendor for Fathom. Their customer service was great and they were very supportive given the situation we were in. But it was geared toward huge utilities and without Fathom's staff to operate it we found it to be more complex and time-consuming to operate than needed for our relatively small utility. They also required a multi-year contract which, having just been thrown into the fire by Fathom's sudden collapse, made us uncomfortable.

On a downhill spiral! I'd like to withdraw my previous 5 star review from 2013.
I left an outstanding review of this product in 2013 after having used it for 1 year, however. The product remains a very inexpensive solution to billing. Daily usage and routine tasks remain easy to operate. Integration with the online payment processor which MuniBilling requires us to use is trouble free, however. For the most part, the system works without a need for customer support, however
CONSNow for the howevers.Control of MuniBilling has apparently been sold to investors who seem to have no direct knowledge of billing software or of utility systems in general. Where we once could contact the owner/developer on his cell phone, we currently have no knowledge of who is commanding the ship, or whether we will even receive a response to a customer support ticket. Originally, the developer was making almost weekly improvements to the system, adding this or that. We could even ask for customization if desired. Now, afte r 6 year's of use, the company has apparently grown to the point that everything is just shoved down our throats. I requested that a 3 word phrase on our bills be changed to the same 2 word phrase which had previously been used , and was told that it wasn't possible. 2 days ago we received an email telling us that MuniBilling's payment provider was discontinuing all utility's ability to accept integrated phone / field-entered credit card payments for security compliance reasons. This change was going to take place in less than 2 weeks and we were warned that we should get the word out to our customers quickly for a easy transition. When I called the payment provider, the rep knew nothing about any such change. They are setting us up a new card processing account, separate from MuniBilling's account. The surprises and removal of necessary features by an ever-changing management team, over the past year, continue an undesirable trend.

Stall billing
We started with the support staff who worked with us to program MuniBilling to our needs and then acted as our account manager for some time. When he moved on, the other one took over and didn't miss a beat. I have always been very, very happy with the service and appreciate all the help that we have received. I look forward to working with him more as we continue.
PROSWe have a very specific and unusual need for billing. We operate a thoroughbred training facility and we rent by both stall and barn. There is a wide variety of billing accounts that come into play throughout the month. When we needed a desperate upgrade from a previously customized program to something else that would work for our needs, MuniBilling provided us with the ability to customize and create something that carried the same elements as what we used previously.
CONSBecause we were trying to keep it as similar as possible to a previous program, there are several parts that require individual processes to complete. While this is not difficult, it does create more opportunity for human error to mess with the system and no way to fix other than an adjustment. I wish it had a better editing option.

Village of Perrysville Review about MuniBilling software
My overall experience with MuniBilling has been wonderful. The support team has always treated me with the upmost respect. Whenever I need help there has never been an occasion that it has taken more than an hour to get the help I need.
PROSI like the software because it is very user friendly. When I started using the software a year ago I had no idea what I was doing. I have been using it a year now and I very seldom have to call support for help. When I do call for support the support team is very patient, they always guides me through what I have to do step by step, and they explain what I am doing. I love the reports I am able to print out to let me know past due balances and totals year to date. I cannot express enough on how user friendly the software is. The tabs at the top of each page really help you to know where you have to go to make changes.
CONSThere is not anything that I have found so far that I do not like about the software.

Excellent solution for Multi-Family Property utility billing!
This is a highly capable utility billing product with great functionality, ease of use and strong customer support. We came onboard with MuniBilling in 2018 and it's been a smooth transition every step of the way, thanks to their outstanding staff and customer support.
PROSThis cloud-based product is very user-friendly and works exceptionally well for us to bill utilities across numerous apartment communities. We reviewed a number of different products before we selected MuniBilling and are certain that we made the right choice. It's capable of handling a variety of complex rate structures and all of the unique aspects associated with billing Multi-Family properties. In addition, their customer support team has been fantastic and there for us every step of the way!
CONSAs with all 'off the shelf' products, there are some limitations on customization and configuration. With that being said, we haven't encountered anything that we haven't been able to work around.

munibilling review
We have had an amazing experience with Munibilling in the process of going live! [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] have been amazing! Any time we have questions, they go above and beyond to make sure that we understand everything! What usually is supposed to be a 20 minute phone call turns into an hour phone call most of the time because they are being so thorough. I highly recommend this company! Thank you for all of your help to the whole team!
PROSIt is a huge upgrade compared to the old company that we used! It is way more accurate when it comes to pulling the correct usage, so the customers get billed correctly.
CONSWe have not had any problems so far. There were a couple things that had to be corrected but it is just a small bump in the road compared to what we have dealt with in the past.
Reasons for switching to MuniBilling
The company we had before wasn't working properly, and as far as I know, never did. There were several people that had more usage than they were supposed to have on a base bill which is 1,000 gallons or less but were still getting charged a base bill, so therefor we were losing money, which is a problem in itself.

MuniBilling saved the day for the City of Arcadia!
Our former Utility Billing company notified us on November 12, 2019 that they were going our of business with an effective end date of November 30, 2019. MuniBilling worked with us and had our data converted had us up and running on the MuniBilling software on December 2, 2019.
PROSThe ease of use. We have a busy office and having all the appropriate things on one screen for easy access is very important.
CONSWe are still in the very early stages (less than two months) with MuniBilling. There are not a lot of issues with it, mostly just things that are different from the software we are used to. They listen to our suggestions and make any changes they are able to.
Reason for choosing MuniBilling
MuniBilling was the company who offered us all the pieces of billing we needed: CIS Software; billing; printing of bills; and a customer call center. They were the only company who said they could get us up and running quickly. AND THEY DID!
