“The choice was quickly made”, says Frits Rasing, Financial Manager of Mijnwater. “The back office and the customer portal are both very user-friendly. In addition, the application offers us many consumption insights and standard export options. The complete service package that is fully in line with our operations and the ACM requirements and the interface possibilities with our own solutions within Mijnwater were the decisive advantages.”

Director Alex Sessink: "Thanks to Zero Friction I save at least a couple of working days per month. I only have to approve the direct debit order every month. The other processes are fully automated. Correct communication is very important to us. So it's also very nice that, via the customer portal, we can inform our customers about their energy consumption and costs. And tis all is done according to the current legislation."

Ann Vandenbroucke -Director of Sales and Services at IVBO- testifies: "We had been in contact with Zero Friction for a while, but given the small number of connections, it was not interesting for us at the time. Due to the strong growth in recent years, manual processing became too time-consuming and the risk of manual errors was too high. Further research showed that the Zero Friction platform was the right solution for us to contract new customers, send out advance invoices and take care of yearly invoices. In a second phase, we are setting up the Zero Friction customer portal to provide customers with online insights into their contracts, consumption and costs."
