MyVoltage Utility Management Platform vs Zego Utility

MyVoltage Utility Management Platform provides cloud-based smart metering and utility management for buildings, residential estates, and shopping centres. Its meters track electricity, water, and gas, while landlords and tenants can view real-time hourly, weekly, and monthly consumption data. Alerts can cover irregular consumption, water leaks, meter status changes, meter location, and consumption data. The platform reconciles billing, payments, and consumption; the maker says invoices use actual readings rather than estimates, with daily invoices for prior-day usage. Other listed functions include network balancing, council statements and payments, historical data, rent collection, and alternative-energy readings and bills. Solar and generator use can be tracked and billed from readings. Tenants can top up online by credit card or cash subject to terms and conditions; prepaid Wallet recharges have no cost. MyVoltage lists Android, iOS, and web platforms, says payment transactions are 3D secure, and states a 99% uptime guarantee. Pricing is on request.

Zego Utility automates utility workflows for multifamily property managers, covering invoice handling through resident billing. Its expense service retrieves and audits utility invoices, works with providers to resolve billing errors, and pays invoices on clients’ behalf. Resident billing supports submeter calculations and Ratio Utility Billing Services (RUBS), combining utility charges with rent and other items on resident statements. It can recover water, sewer, trash, gas, recycling, and electric expenses, including for student housing. Zego Insights provides usage and recoupment reporting, portfolio benchmarking, alerts, and customizable dashboards. Invoice and payment details can integrate with accounting software; listed property management partners include AppFolio, MRI Software, Resman, Rent Manager, and Yardi. Residents can view and pay statements from any device, and staff can review prebills in Zego Admin. The product is available on Android, iOS, and the web. Zego states that it offers 24x7x365 resident support. It describes annual SSAE18 review, PCI Level 1 compliance for card data, and 256-bit encryption for sensitive data. Pricing is available by request, and there is no free plan.
