'Hairball' of software tools versus SolarSuccess

As companies grow, they typically cobble together a mix of software tools to address their needs, often resulting in a ‘hairball’ of incompatible applications that do not ‘talk’ to each other.

SolarSuccess solves this problem by providing unified, integrated applications, with a single source of data/reporting that eliminates information silos.

Frequently Asked Questions

Blu Banyan SolarSuccess is designed to meet the specific challenges at the core of a solar installer business, with the goal of enabling the efficiencies necessary to reduce soft costs. All aspects of the business—including sales pipeline management, CRM, accounting, purchasing, installation project management (including project costing and profitability), inventory management, customer invoicing, universal financier connectivity, and business intelligence—all share data from a single source. The system provides end-to-end visibility on cash flow, profitability, acquisition costs, project summaries and alerts, and other functions that are keys to a solar installer’s success.

Having a unified system that ties your accounting system to your supply chain, project management, CRM, marketing, and fulfillment systems allows you to see your cash flow and measure efficiencies across multiple areas. Our solar solutions system will alert you to specific areas of deviation from plan so that you can then zero in on problem areas or opportunities to maximize revenues.

Typical implementations take about 3-4 months, depending on what tools the client is already using, and how extensive and complex data import from the existing system may be. Multi-phased approaches are available to solve the most pressing needs (usually connecting project milestones to accounting events), followed by full integration of CRM and other applications.

SolarSuccess will be updated twice a year, in line with NetSuite system updates. There is no additional cost to updates; clients automatically get the updates, benefiting from new product features, including on-going updates to solar financier project templates, keeping you aligned with the latest changes with minimal effort.
