Comment and question...
There are a LOT of very bad utility software packages being sold "out there." My brother is a council member in our small town (35k population) and they have had a continuous stream of really bad "solutions" that have wasted a lot of money. Not saying you're another bad solution...rather I would suspect you're one of the unknown gems!
Hearing there's lots of bad ones...hey, that's an opportunity! lol
Do you know if your package would handle the new craze of meter readings being collected via WIFI repeaters located throughout the city? I assume they just feed them on a continuous stream to a database and then you read the desired values in as needed. The benefit being that a meter can help detect a leak/broken pipe when usage shoots up.
The meter readings were imported from a text file (simple text file import via APPEND FROM as I recall off the top of my head). Provided we can get to the data source, we'll import it however needed, but as with everything I do, I'd like to find the easiest "KISS" approach so as to not complicate things.
