Hadeda vs Utilmate

Hadeda is utility billing software for property managers of multi-unit buildings, estates and gated communities. Its portal brings tenant, meter, tariff, bill and payment management together, while residents can check meter data, see a combined utilities-and-rent statement and pay through the app. The service supports postpaid billing, with monthly payment on the 1st; prepaid billing is rolling out. Hadeda deploys ultrasonic, smart-mechanical and electromagnetic meters for domestic, zonal and bulk use. It checks meter readings for leak patterns, sends alerts and can support remote shutoff when smart valves are installed. Reports cover readings, usage, charges, meter health and bulk-versus-unit totals, with Excel or CSV export. Water metering is live, while electricity and gas are rolling out. Third-party APIs and Sigfox, LoRaWAN and fixed-radio connectivity are listed. Apps and web access are available. Pricing is on request.

Utilmate is a web-based utility billing and customer management service for providers of electricity, gas, hot and cold water, solar, data and shared services. Its billing tools include invoicing, payments, customer management, automated collections, accounts receivable, reporting and exception dashboards. A customer portal lets people manage accounts, pay bills, set up direct debits, move in or out, and view usage. Meter readers and field agents can enter readings and notes on a smartphone or tablet, though meter-read charges may apply. Listed integrations include Xero, Buildium, Ezidebit, GoCardless, Square, Stratapay, Stripe, Bing Mail and Zendesk Support. Starter, Pro and Premium plans are invoiced monthly, with prices available from sales. Starter allows up to five users and migration assistance for the first 100 customers; higher plans list larger user and migration limits. A 60-day trial includes all features and requires no payment information to start. Utilmate says trial data is deleted if users do not subscribe afterward.
