## Tyler Enterprise Permitting &amp; Licensing Reviews
  ### 1. EnerGov is a debacle

**Rating:** 1.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Dustin J. | S, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 28, 2022

**What do you like best about Tyler Enterprise Permitting & Licensing?**

If It does work effectively and and how it should be working, it eliminates on journal entries.  EnerGov is supposed to talk to Tyler Munis, but there are issues with how it talks to one another

**What do you dislike about Tyler Enterprise Permitting & Licensing?**

It creates duplicate invoices and double payments, which is quite troubling. There is a lot of manually work to be done to fix these issues, in addition to the speed of the permit processing, which causes alot of concerns with the public. We went live in February 2022, and it should have been tested more in depth and now the unnecessary work is spiraling out of control.

**What problems is Tyler Enterprise Permitting & Licensing solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Most of EnerGov staff are fairly new and don't have a great grasp of the system in itself. Are on employees will be traveling to a city (of similar size) to see how they fixed the issues and if a temporary band-aid is necessary.

  ### 2. Stay away.

**What do you like best about Tyler Enterprise Permitting & Licensing?**

It is a powerful tool, with some features what would be nice if they worked properly.

**What do you dislike about Tyler Enterprise Permitting & Licensing?**

Support is awful, near impossible to talk with someone compentent. The sales staff routinely over-promise and under-deliver. We have been plagued with issues since deployment over 5 years ago. It has never worked properly

**What problems is Tyler Enterprise Permitting & Licensing solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It does allow us to process and track permits and inspections. However, the complexity of the software and it's unreliability have left us with more problems than solutions.
