Solar quotes aren't like a call-out repair. You're pricing a dozen components, competing against other installers on professionalism, and carrying real equipment costs before the customer pays. With loadshedding driving demand, the installers who win are the ones who quote fast, look credible, and manage cash flow tightly — which is exactly what QuoteDirect is built for.

Made for the way solar jobs actually work

The parts of a PV install that generic quoting tools get wrong.

🔩

Multi-component quotes

Itemise panels, inverter, batteries, mounting, cabling, CoC and labour on one clear quote — with VAT worked out for you.

Reusable system templates

Save your standard 5kW, 8kW and 12kW builds to your catalogue. Your next quote is a couple of taps, not half an hour.

💳

Deposit invoicing

Raise a deposit invoice the moment a quote is accepted, so equipment costs don't come out of your pocket first.

📸

On-site job tracking

Assign technicians, log before-and-after roof photos, and capture a customer signature on handover.

📄

Quotes that win bigger jobs

A branded, itemised PDF builds the trust a R120k install needs — you look like the established installer, not a chancer.

🔔

Know when to follow up

See when a customer has viewed your quote and chase it before it goes cold — or before they call your competitor.

Frequently asked questions

What is the best quoting software for solar installers in South Africa?

The best fit is software that handles multi-component quotes and South African VAT out of the box. QuoteDirect lets solar installers itemise panels, inverters, batteries, mounting and labour on one branded quote, save common system configurations to reuse, take a deposit invoice, and track the job through to completion — all from a phone on site. It starts at R199/month with a 7-day free trial.

Can I quote a full PV system with panels, inverter and batteries?

Yes. You build the quote line by line — each panel, the inverter, battery bank, mounting hardware, cabling, certificates and labour — with VAT calculated automatically. Save your standard 5kW or 8kW system as a set of catalogue items so the next quote takes a couple of minutes instead of half an hour.

Can I take a deposit before starting a solar install?

Yes. Once a quote is accepted you can raise an invoice for a deposit, record the payment, and track the outstanding balance right through to final payment on completion — so your cash flow keeps up with the cost of the equipment.

Does QuoteDirect work on site from a phone?

Yes. You can assess a roof, build the quote, and email a professional PDF before you leave the customer's home. During the install you can assign technicians, upload before-and-after photos, and capture a customer signature on completion.
