What customers are saying about Aurora

We use Aurora throughout the organization. We use it at the pre-qualification stage and the sales stage when we’re designing a preliminary system. We use it for project managers and even our service department. It allows us to remotely assess the performance of a system based on the best modeling software out there.

Ian Lochore

Director of Residential Sales, Baker Electric Solar

Aurora has mastered the solar design tool, especially since counties are accepting their shade reports. Without Aurora we wouldn’t be able to educate the customers and show them how the panels would look. Aurora is a huge key to our success in continuously growing our sales every single month.
