Submetering Billing Software

Last reviewed September 2026NES Editorial, checked by the Billing & Compliance team

The owner and manager platform behind NES billing, built to fit your existing systems.

Quick answer

What is submetering billing software?

Submetering billing software is the platform that takes meter readings and turns them into accurate resident bills, while giving owners and managers a clear view of usage and charges. NES built its own online software for property owners and managers, and access is included when NES handles billing at your property. From the platform you can see usage trends, review billing, and watch for problems like leaks. It connects to the rent and accounting software your team already uses, so charges move into your rent roll without double entry. NES integrates with major systems including Yardi, RealPage, Entrata, AppFolio, MRI, ResMan, and Rent Manager. This is the manager and owner side of the system, separate from the resident payment portal. If you want to see how it works, NES offers a demo. We focus on properties with 80 or more units across more than 43 states.

Built for owners and managers

This platform is for the people running the property, not the residents paying bills. It gives managers and owners a single place to review usage, check billing, and keep an eye on the property's utility picture. Residents have a separate portal for viewing and paying their own bills.

Integrations that save time

  • Connects with Yardi, RealPage, and Entrata.

  • Supports Rent Manager.
  • Charges flow into your rent roll without manual entry.
