No history of asking for reviews

This company hasn't invited their customers, so reviews may not be representative

Warning guys

The scammers behind rss won't reply to my email considering unsubscribing. Geuss what. You can't unsubscribe on their site. *Would you like to unsubscribe?* you can't click YES, only the NO button works. Very bad product. Just a huge scam

Hi There,

Thank you for your comment above. The business has not used the Easy RSS product for over two years as it has been replaced with the Installer Toolkit, therefore you have no need to "unsubscribe" to the service as it is no longer in use. All our "active" customers have been informed and have transitioned over to Installer Toolkit and are happy with the software.

If you are an active Customer (I have tried searching for you based on the information provided but unable to locate you) please feel free to give us a call on 0161 768 5807 and we can deal with this for you.

Thanks

Not great

Easy RSS and EasyMCS are always there offering their help but the whole process isn't very well laid out or easy to understand. I have struggled with it a lot and when I query anything I simply get pointed toward my online dashboard.
All in all i'm disappointed with the service.

Mature and good service

Having now had the second assessment and passed with flying colours - thanks to Easy MCS and mentor Emma - I have taken part in the Easy RSS software training. A much simpler and comprehensive solution than the OFGEM version.

Happy with EASY RSS.

Very happy with EASY RSS 2. It's very comprehensive & a lot more detailed. Works well & the print out at the end is easy to use.

Valuable time saving software

I have been using the software for a little over 1 month now and have to say i am suitably impressed.

There are a couple of minor niggles in the system which can be frustrating at times (going from one page to another can take a while) but these issues are associated with all cloud based systems not just this one.

Overall, good SW and would recommend to anyone in the trade, cheers guys.

Easy RSS Version 2

Much more complicated and time consuming and there's got to be a better way of input the information and the programme working out heat pump size etc....after version 1 which was so easy and helpful to us, this is so much more complicated, time consuming and costing time and money.

False promises

The systems that are running are 85% there, but the promise of the Biomass for at least eight months now is wearing thin!

Easy RSS

We find easy RSS good to use. It is straight forward enough & there is great customer service given if needed. The site needs updated though with new U VALUES etc but they are in the process of doing it.

Couldn't be easier.

We've used a few calculation tools in the past, but Easy RSS is the simplest yet. It produces a very clear report for our customers too.

Not Fit for Purpose

The RSS software for working out shading for solar panels is not accepted by MCS. There is only one camera which is recognised as being suitable so the software RSS offers to its users to apply their own photographs is not fit for purpose. The camera which is accepted lays its own shade grid over the image so the software would not even be suitable for use with the accepted camera. The software is misleading and led to much embarrassment at our annual audit and a non-conformity as a result. We WILL NOT be using the software again.
