New cloud software is forming an easy bridge between water metering or usage software and accounting software, making it faster and cheaper for water suppliers to produce usage-based bills that integrate automatically with their accounting/ERP systems.
Texas water supplier Ranch Hills Water Supply Corporation increased monthly recurring revenue by about 26% and cut billing time by approximately two thirds using the Datagate cloud-based billing and monetization platform to manage usage-based billing. The Datagate telecom billing platform connected the water reading system Kamstrup READy Manager with Xero accounting software used by RHWSC – a capability RHWSC could not find anywhere else.
