Open Solar, a functional application for the design, presentation, and sale of photovoltaic energy

Open Solar is a very useful online application for the design, presentation, sale, and financial management of photovoltaic energy (solar energy systems with panels). It allows, through a sequence of processes, to achieve everything from the creation of a lead for a potential buyer, the design of a photovoltaic energy system (solar panels), with the arrangements and regulations of cities and counties of each country where it is used, and the equipment that the installing company or photovoltaic energy dealer possesses. It is a user-friendly program, which, in addition to being sequential, is highly interactive: it is very easy to use, I manage it in English (I learned the basic elements in a five-hour course and receive usage updates from the sales manager from time to time). It is easy to implement, compared to Aurora and SOLO (the software par excellence with which we started in the photovoltaic energy market). Customer support is permanent, receiving updates and information via email, receiving indications of technical aspects to consider. Frequently used to make designs for potential clients, the program has several functions ranging from client identification, geospatial location of the property, the design of the solar system with panels, structure, inverters, detailing the size of the system (this is the most complete part), then price, financing, presentation, and client qualification, and generation of warranty and sales contracts (when financiers are associated within the application).
