Our customers love us.
"Producers in GMD4 are required to check their meters no less than once every two weeks during the irrigation season and keep a log in case the meter malfunctions. TAPP H2O enables them to do that with no effort and sends alerts if the meter is not working. It also shows when a producer is close to exceeding their water limitations to avoid hefty penalties. They've helped correct water use reporting errors as well. TAPP H2O stood out from other options: it's low-cost and had all the features we needed. Customer service is speedy and a joy to work with. They are constantly seeking ways to improve their product. The producers that use absolutely love it! "
Shannon Kenyon, General Manager, Northwest Kansas Groundwater Management District #4 (GMD4)
"Sign up for TAPP H2O! It's simple and easy to use and will make you way more aware of your water use than you ever have been. Mammoth Water is very hands-on. They're willing to improve the product and make sure it is providing customers with everything they need. TAPP H2O quickly catches when meters go down. All our employees can use it. The app is very user friendly and the support from the TAPP Team is great. They are updating TAPP H2O and improving the dashboard constantly. Our GMD board has been looking for any and all ways to help our growers record water data and become more aware of their water meters. TAPP H2O was a no-brainer."
Brent Rogers, Kansas producer + GMD4 board member
"After seeing Mammoth Water’s excellent water markets demonstration at Stockholm World Water Week a few years ago, I have asked her to lead a similar demonstration on multiple occasions for my students at the University of Virginia. The demonstration brings to life for them the concepts and theories they’ve been reading about in books and journal papers. The role-playing involved in the demo is a fun and creative way to deepen their understanding of how different trading rules can strongly influence the outcomes for both buyers and sellers."
Brian Richter, Sustainable Waters
"It used to be a struggle to keep accurate water use records. TAPP H2O has been a game-changer. It is an awesome service and worth the money. Mammoth Water's staff is very helpful. I love this app and will definitely be doing it again!"
Steve, Kansas producer
"Water is our most precious resource and we are in jeopardy of losing it. TAPP H2O tracks our usage and provides insights on where we can manage better. TAPP H2O has also saved me tons of time. It's a win-win."
Gennifer Golden House, Kansas landowner
"Tools like this cement our partnerships with landowners, providing them with crucial data about their water use to aid in their managing under our regulations."
John Berge, General Manager, North Platte NRD
"Before TAPP H2O, tracking water use was like a wagon with square wheels. Now I have an easy way to document usage through the season. It's simple and straightforward with great customer support. Great company to work with!"
Todd, Kansas producer
"TAPP H2O is about the easiest meter recording app you can find and helps you stay in compliance with your water rights. The updates you get are a great way of monitoring your water use. Mammoth Water listens to suggestions and constantly improves their product."
Shane Mann, Kansas producer + GMD4 board member
"Richael isn’t just a programmer looking to sell an app. She understands agriculture and the significance of being a good steward of our water resource. You cannot make good decisions without being properly informed. TAPP H2O makes collecting and translating water use data easy, even for multi-year and complicated groundwater allocations."
Nate Emig, Kansas producer + GMD4 board member
