What our customers are saying
Luke Bastian
Director of Bascon Group
Pylon is amazing to work with. Their software make it simple for our staff to produce high quality solar proposals in minutes. I highly recommend them and their software for solar quotes.
George Auchterlonie
Director of Renewable Energy Solutions Tasmania
Pylon is fantastic! I switched from Nearmap last year. My customers love the proposals. You can punch out proposals in 2 minutes.
Tal Jacks
Managing Director of E-Green Electrical
Pylon's actually really good, I love the panel layout tool and the simplicity of the program. Pylon's much easier to use than OpenSolar.
Darren English
Director of Greener Housing Solutions
Just got to say I love using this platform. So quick and easy to use. Also the SLD is a dream, it makes my job so much quicker. It's much easier to use one service to do everything.
Troy Heald
Director of TNH Solar
Pylon is great. Great service and affordable for small operators like myself. The proposal is great for our customers. We won't be going back to Nearmap.
Tarak Shah
Managing Director of Sunrun Solar
Switched to Pylon from Nearmap, we have no regrets since we moved to them. You only pay for what you use.
Jack Keily
Director of Solark Electrical
I couldn't recommend this design software enough. It's very easy to use, constantly updating in all aspects, from tech you can design with, to calculators and integrations!
Trung Nguyen
Solid Solar Services
We have been using Pylon solely to prepare for our solar installation. Nelson and his team is exceptional and very proactive. Cannot recomend these guys enough.
