It does give you a good yearly look at your cost for energy. > > **Cons**: Some questions seem like they are needed, but you have to answer in order to move on. ----- ### "Tracking Energy in Schools" — 5.0/5 > **William** | *24 February 2023* | Facilities Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Upon receiving the software we were able to input data from utility bills over the prior 3 years and create benchmarks allowing us to take advantage of all the reports and energy trends. We were able to show the savings from upgrades for things such as LED lighting , new more efficient HVAC units, building controls and many others changes. We are now able to see the areas that need our attention based on the positive differences these changes made. > > **Cons**: I can thing of nothing that I am not pleased with. > > Overall both the content and ease of use of the software have exceeded all expectations\! ----- ### "Energy Manager" — 3.0/5 > **Rhonda** | *5 April 2019* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10 > > **Pros**: I believe once the product is set up the way it needs to be, I will love the reports that I have been wanting to get for years. > > **Cons**: The set up has been the least attractive thing about this system however, the information that will be available once established will be far greater than the old system. Because of the complexity of our invoicing with roof top solar and a solar garden we are not able to utilize the auto invoice upload each month. Even though I need to enter each account manually, it is an easy and user friendly software. > > I am able to notify maintenance of problems with water leaks etc... This is the point in which we have found that our solar panels are not working. This is a tool that can be used by the schools to educate students on energy and energy management. ----- ### "Lewisville isd review for Facilities" — 5.0/5 > **Rene** | *1 March 2023* | Facilities Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like the reporting features of this software. Have many choices. > > **Cons**: Once the imports are set up they are easy to use, but setting up is a bit tasking. Our integration went very well. > > We have seemed to catch more water leaks. It's easy to use. ----- ### "Quality Product for Tracking Energy Usage" — 5.0/5 > **William** | *13 January 2022* | Primary/Secondary Education | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: The Energy Manager program provides all the data i need to keep track of energy usage for all of my buildings. The data is easily accessable and can provide a instant snapshot of how our buildings are performing. > > **Cons**: The only issues i have encountered with Energy Manager are with some of the reports. Sometimes i end up with way more information on a report than needed and toher times its not enough. I have to say also, that this could be totally caused by my lack of knowlege. Customer support is always spot on and I'm sure they would help me in anyway to extract the data i need. > > The Energy Manager program is invaluable in showing trends and energy usage over many months or even years. This provides the data i need to validate my requests during budget hearings. ----- Page: 1 / 3\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/87449/energymanager?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/87449/energymanager) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
