NorthStar overview

What is NorthStar?

You need a customer service software that works with your unique billing strategy, and you’re probably thinking it’s going to cost you. In fact, most small- to medium-sized utility administrators think a state-of-the-art customer information and billing software is big-city expensive.

But, NorthStar is different. We’ll give you everything you want, even the modifications that big utilities have, at a fraction of the cost. How can we do that? We’ve been in the utilities customer service and billing software business for over 45 years, and we’ve built NorthStar to tackle any challenging billing scenario you can think of, even complicated, deregulated markets and alternative energy sources. NorthStar will tailor a solution that provides the best experience for your customers and keeps your employees performing at peak efficiency. It’s time you experience the power of NorthStar.
