Compare Aurora Solar vs Kwest

About Aurora Solar

Aurora offers the most comprehensive and advanced software platform for the design and sale of solar installations. It is used by many of the US’ top solar installers in their day-to-day operations. It was created from the realization that it was needlessly cumbersome and time-consuming to have to use many different tools to work on a single solar installation. Aurora’s innovative workflow encompasses all of the steps needed to go from an address to a completed solar design, financial analysis, and sales proposal in next to no time.

Creating a design and modeling an installation is easy and robust. Users can perform detailed shading analysis and get shade measurement directly in the application, drag and drop components to create system designs, and automatically generate single line diagrams. All designs are automatically checked for compliance with electrical constraints, industry best practices and NEC rules.

Automated financial reports allow users to quickly determine the viability of a project and easily model many of the most popular financing structures. Financial models take into account the energy profile of the project and calculate accurate and dynamic visualizations of financial information like cash flows, payback period, LCOE and bill savings.

Finally, everything can be tied together with compelling sales proposals. Using the project and design data already created in Aurora, sales proposals automatically pull in the custom project and client data, 3D visuals, and financial analysis into any number of clean and professional templates, guaranteeing a consistent, yet customized experience for all clients.
