Here's what other solar installers have to say about SolarSuccess
How we helped Ethical Energy unify their systems, gain real-time data and triple their projects
Ethical Energy were struggling with a business where none of their systems spoke to each other, no data matched and they couldn’t directly tie their finances to their projects.
We helped them roll up all their systems into SolarSuccess, which helped them gain real visibility over their business, enabling them to take on more installations while adding no employees for the back-office work.
Their bottom line is now multiplying, all from changing their project management tools.
How we helped Enlight get real-time, project-finance visibility, to make better, faster decisions
Enlight faced challenges with disconnected systems, where project and financial data didn’t align, and they couldn’t track everything in real-time. We helped them consolidate all their systems into SolarSuccess, giving them full visibility over their operations and enabling faster decision-making.
Now, with streamlined processes and real-time data, Enlight can take on more projects without increasing their back-office staff.
Their business is thriving, all thanks to the power of integrated project management and financial tools.

'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.
Solar
The US solar industry is expected to continue its strong growth trajectory, thanks to the Investment Tax Credit (ITC) and despite supply chain constraints and other challenges. Forecasting a substantial recovery, solar deployments in 2023 are projected to reach 29 GWdc, a significant increase from the previous year’s 21 GWdc, according to the Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA).

- Inability to see projects and timelines

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 at a minimum of twice a year. Blu Banyan does not charge additional license fees for upgrades. Clients benefit from new product features, including on-going updates keeping you aligned with the latest changes with minimal effort. Custom testing may be an additional cost if preferred by the client.
