Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • The customer support is great. I purchased this program in 1992 and they've come a long way. At first, it might take a couple of days to hear back from them but the last several years, I've received quick responses to my cries for help!

Cons

  • Maintenance prices have skyrocketed. I can't afford them anymore. They don't care about small companies (or individuals like me). They are looking for the big bucks that only municipalities can afford. If you are a small rural water system, this company is not for you.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • I really like how the Opus21 team customized the system for our utility billing needs for our municipality. It was absolutely the right decision to outsource our utility billing to Opus21 since our workforce has been shrinking due to retirement and we don't have the resources to hire, train, and support new full-time employees. We found that we were able to replace our antiquated utility billing software process and eliminate the redundancies that were costing us both time and money. The greatest part of working with Opus was that they not only offered support and a team of utility billing experts but it allowed us to be hands off and focus on other aspects of our neighborhood.

Cons

  • It was a longer setup process than we anticipated, but in all honesty, our utility billing system was complicated and needed extra customization that Opus handled very well. For the most part, the transition to their utility billing management system was smooth.
