My EnergyCAP Review
I am a strong user and I train others to use the EnergyCAP. My users are running reports and are finding errors. The data in EnergyCAP is used to make financial decisions. Do your organization a favor and start using EnergyCAP. I have over 30 years in the energy business and I have used various software, and EnergyCAP is the best!
- There are many exciting features in EnergyCAP
- Some of the features are the dashboards, reports, customer support and the Help Center
- The dashboards are easy to create and the data tells the story
- I like reports and EnergyCAP has over 100 reports
- My favorite reports are the usage, costs and charts
- The customer support is outstanding and the response is fast
- The Help Center has videos and the information is detailed
- I really have no cons except, I wish the terminology reflected what the utilities use
- However, this is not a show stopper

Verified UserOutdated, un-intuitive, glorified spreadsheet
For our purposes, this product is a hammer trying to find a nail; a simple spreadsheet can replace the functionality required for our purposes. The product pricing is not suitable for an institution our size. Essentially, the software has no payback for our campus. It is a constant nuisance to figure out whether the client or web is better for certain tasks. The client is beyond old and needs to be updated. The website interface is made with Flash, which is an outdated technology that most software companies have fled. The entire gui needs to be vetted by an experienced HCI team in order to make product more user friendly.

There is power in data
I manage 5 independent solar sites across our county with over 100 participating meters in both NEM and RESBCT programs
- The easy access to data and functionality
- Anyone can look through the dashboards and identify data
- Reporting functions can be limiting
- The power BI integration helps

Energycap for governments!
It’s been amazing and I’ve been working with the software for over 2 years! I am apart of the city of OKC, and we have used Energycap for over 10 years!
I love how robust the software is and how it’s helped improve efficiency within your organization
- I would love more learning sessions
- I would more breakout sessions as well

Overall, a pretty good tool
Verified reviewer
After learning how to use the system, it can be very useful when checking impacts on energy and water through billing
- The training "courses" offered are just videos to watch, which doesn't seem worth the cost of them
- Maybe if there was an interactive component to encourage users to follow along
- It would also be nice to have a more customized approach to report building

EnergyCAP and Understanding your data
I am happy using EnergyCAP. I have learned so much about our energy because of the data mining I can do with EnergyCAP. I like being able to provide our engineers with the data they need to support energy improvement projects, and all we have to do is a quick query.
- EnergyCAP helps our team with invoice tracking and verifying if the invoices are "in line" with historical use so that we can assess the invoice appropriateness or look for reasons we might be seeing a spike
- We use the queries to track energy consumption and to help with budget management
- I appreciate the weather normalization features so we can easily compare year upon year of energy use, despite weather variances
- The reports are customizable
- We can add and track custom meters not typically associated with utilities, such as permitting fees etc
- The program takes a moment to learn to navigate: Learning the differences between the modules and how they function together
- Learning how to correctly write queries will unlock the potential, but those can be tricky, as in any database program
- Overall, I really cant imagine trying to manage as much data as we do without EnergyCAP

Colorado State University EnergyCap Review
EnergyCAP has been used at this University for more than 30 years because it is a superior product. There have been multiple instances where other applications have been reviewed, and each time, EnergyCAP comes out as a clear winner. The relationships developed with their team is also incredibly valuable.
- The University has used one iteration or another of EnergyCAP since 1990
- The current platform is an elegant solution for handling both the energy and accounting functions associated with utility bills
- Recommissioning our database was skillfully guided by the EnergyCAP project manager assigned to our team
- Our resulting product is much more functional for all users
- We now directly link EnergyCAP to Energy STAR's Portfolio Manager to submit data for City and State building performance reporting requirements
- Our internal chargeback process has improved as well
- Sometimes it is hard to know what report filters to select to present the correct data
- There is so much functionality, that we often don't have the bandwidth to utilize those features as well as we could
- There is a cost to every add-on - though we do understand that is typical in today's market
Why they chose it
"EnergyCAP is a more robust product that has been well designed to meet the needs required in a Utility Database. One critical requirement we had was to have a database that could be available to the public, whether students and staff at the University or consultants outside the University. We are a public institution, and we felt our utility database should also be public."
