    Pros

    Staff was great to work with, and the software is user-friendly once you know what you're doing.

    Cons

    Setup took a while to get running smoothly, and there were occasional issues that needed to be ironed out throughout the use of the software. But any issues were fixed quickly

    The best part of working with WatchWire is working with the EnergyWatch team. I championed WatchWire within my company and the EnergyWatch team always provided me with the right data at the right time to help me sell WatchWire internally.

    Pros

    The comprehensiveness of the software is what impresses me the most. I led the team that helped choose WatchWire and now we are rolling it out to several parts of our organization and even to some of our direct customers and suppliers. Another great part of the platform is the 'tentacle' it has into various sustainability databases, accounting systems, and metering devices.

    Cons

    My company is in the electrical system manufacturing business, so power quality data is important to us. I'd like to see the WatchWire platform evolve with more power-related data sets, such as current, voltage, etc.

    Reasons for Choosing WatchWire

    The first time I saw the WatchWire solution, I went back to my leadership and said 'we have to have this.' WatchWire is so superior to our internal development efforts that switching was an easy -- and way more affordable -- decision.

    Pros

    Watchwire is an outstanding all-around energy management software. The tool is extremely intuitive to use and well organized, but doesn't skimp on advanced functionality in any way including data APIs, efficiency/renewable project M&V, budgeting, and bill simulation.

    Cons

    I don't have any complaints about EnergyWatch!
