Very easy process. We received a very quick response but only received 2 quotes. Easy to compare equipment and estimated energy cost savings. Financing was available and its cost vs full payment was easy to compare. Overall a very good experience. We would have rated this a 5 if we would have received a couple more quotes.

If you are a little unsure about the specifics of solar power generation, and/or don't have a contractor in mind, this service is invaluable. There is a lot of info to read about at the website, but going through the process of getting a quote and picking a contractor results in you learning about what you want regarding system attributes, and you end up with a contractor that has been vetted by an impartial third party. I only got two bids; i suspect because of the geographical location. If you live in a more populated area, you will probably get mulitiple bids. Anything more than one is a huge help to be confident you aren't getting ripped off. Great experience.

The process is very thorough and very easy to use -and it's free! If you are looking into solar you should really start with this group. I wish there were similar sites for every project I have on my house.

Energy Sage made it easy for us to find multiple providers for a home solar installation. We probably saved about $5,000 as a result of the competitive bidding process. I also appreciated the solar advisor session with Energy Sage - they answered many of my questions and helped me understand what I needed to ask the installers to make a good choice.

They make it so easy to get solar. Instead of you having to figure it out or see if you have a good deal, it is all presented to you and easy to compare.

Using EnergySage helped me have confidence that I understood the economics of a solar installation. They walked me through the products and how to compare prices. I hope they branch out into other products like HVAC / heat pumps.

Was great to work through Energy Sage. We had almost made the mistake of going with a nationally known company and then found EnergySage where we were able to compare proposals, cost and meet with several companies. Sam, our EnergySage adviser was able to help with my many questions. We ended up going with one of the companies on EnergySage. We have been very happy with our choice! Thanks EnergySage

Sadly, I had a very poor experience. It’s possible I was dropped during the process. My rep missed a couple of appointments. When we finally connected I was wrongfully identified as a potential employee vs. a client. That experience would have been excusable (since no one is perfect); if I wasn’t later ignored / forgotten about again. I like the concept and I truly believe in EnergySage. However, it appears that the client-to-customer ratio is currently high and it is contributing to several bad experiences.

Excellent source of information on all things solar. Wide variety of quotes from installers. Especially appreciated how my contact information was never shared without my consent. Highly recommend Energy Sage to all my neighbors and friends.

Very useful service. There are three main benefits. The first is that you can get detailed, thorough quotes from several vendors without contacting them individually. This is helpful because if you contact them directly they'll often want to take as much of your time as possible to build a relationship, etc. So they'll want to do in-person calls and visits, etc. That's fine if they turn out to be one of your top choices but it's not a great first step from the consumer's perspective. The second great benefit is that you can compare the quotes in a very detailed and precise way since all of the vendors essentially fill out entries in a database. You can use EnergySage to directly compare cost, features, specs, etc. thoroughly. The quotes I got outside of EnergySage were far less forthcoming with details, equipment specs, etc. The last major benefit is that all interaction with vendors is through EnergySage unless you decide to give out your email or phone number. This lets you control the conversation. All of the vendors that I interacted with were responsive and helpful. Solar companies do not make it easy for consumers to know all of the information before making a purchase decision. Things like dealer fees are likely not explained to most people and not sure if EnergySage makes dealer fees clear are not but EnergySage does help to give the consumer an assist. Definitely do your research as well but EnergySage was definitely helpful for me.

EnergySage was easy to use and very informative. It was convenient to have all quotes in one place where I could easily compare. I also liked that I could conduct all communication with prospective vendors in the online portal.

zIt was great having an independent group reviewing the submittals. Had one bidder submit an alternate proposal separate from EnergySage, but could not tell how good the products being proposed actually were. They resubmitted through the site and EnergySage was able to let me know the proposal was justified. Strongly recommend the independent review.

Process of using EnergySage was simple and efficient. You do need some techical information about your home, but that's reasonable in order to get bids that are more appropriate to the size and needs of your home. I found my vendor here, got a great price and then also had some rebates through special promotions from panel vendors. This is my third solar home -- I didn't know about Energy Sage before using them now. Recommended.

I don't know how to feel about Energy Sage. They seemed very helpful But the company they connected me with, Green Brilliance, hasn't followed up after they took my money. They have takrn 3 months getting approvals and I still don't have any solar panels.

EnergySage helped me tremendously to educate me on ALL aspects of Solar Power Generation, Storage, costs... etc and played a key role in providing quotations from local (or local to the state) solar installers which were far more cost competitive compared to the quotations I got from local solar installers who had a representative who visited my home to provide a sales pitch, sell their company and whatever brand of solar panels & inverters they were supporting. The lower price of the quotes obtained through EnergySage was a significant financial benefit to me. The vast amount of information, articles, comparison, and data sheets available and well organized on EnergySage also helped me answer any question I had and for me to obtain quantitative comparison to make a final solar system choice.

Energysage was a big help. It was simple to compare quotes and the quotes provided much more information and the quotes I had sourced on my on. Found a much better deal through Energysage saving me thousands and ended up with better equipment.
