City launches e-billing

Redlands, in the US, has launched RedConnect, which provides municipal utilities customers with 24/7 access to account information including electronic billing, says Redlands Daily Facts.

RedConnect provides customers with access to their entire water usage history, as well as billing and payment history. Customers can also compare their water usage to the previous year.

Billing and payment history can also be exported from the RedConnect site to an Excel spreadsheet for customers' tax records. Customers with multiple properties can view all of their bills in one place.

iScore is an efficient way of rating your prospects as cold, warm or hot, depending on their actions within a campaign.
