8 best solar CRM platforms in Singapore

Quickest Solar CRM is our first pick for a small Singapore installer that wants a focused mobile path from enquiry to branded proposal and consistent follow-up. That placement uses a disclosed proposal-first adoption lens and depends on a Singapore proof step. OpenSolar offers the clearest free design-first route, while SolarPlus and Pylon provide deeper published solar design and proposal functions. We compared eight products against SGD quoting, 9% GST, InvoiceNow, EMA and SP Group stages, residential and commercial handoffs, PDPA controls, project evidence, accounting, and support.

Which solar CRM is best in Singapore?

Quickest Solar CRM ranks first when fast proposal creation, simple lead ownership, mobile adoption, and a free pilot matter most. QuickEstimate owns Quickest, and its public evidence is India-first. We found no verified Singapore localisation, so buyers should treat the recommendation as conditional on a live acceptance test and written terms. Choose OpenSolar when free solar design is the priority, SolarPlus or Pylon when technical proposals lead the sale, Aurora for a design-led team with integration resources, Deskera for broader business operations, and Zoho or HubSpot for a configurable general CRM.

The best solar CRM by use case

A useful shortlist starts with the sales or delivery bottleneck. Each winner below reflects a different buying priority, while the overall ranking rewards a CRM that a solar sales team can adopt quickly.

The Singapore Solar CRM Fit Test

We followed one customer record from enquiry, consent, site review, proposal and revision through owner approval, Qualified Person and Licensed Electrical Worker handoffs, grid connection, invoicing, installation, commissioning, turn-on, and customer handover. The order favours a fast sales workflow first, then solar design depth, project control, Singapore finance fit, and general CRM flexibility. Local facts come from current IRAS, EMA, SP Group, and PDPC material. Product facts come from official vendor pages and remain vendor claims unless another source is named. We quote a public price only when the vendor page clearly supports its amount and currency. No CRM is treated as evidence of tax, engineering, grid, privacy, or legal compliance.

01

Solar workflow depth

Can the product carry system details, proposal status, project milestones, and the delivery handoff without rebuilding the process in custom fields?

02

Sales control

Can managers route leads, track activity, automate follow-up, forecast revenue, and see why an opportunity stalled?

03

Proposal and design

Can a rep move from site information to a credible customer proposal, and how much specialist solar design happens inside the platform?

04

Local transaction fit

Does the workflow support the language, currency, tax, communications, documents, and handoffs common in Singapore?

05

Cost to adoption

What setup, migration, training, administration, and extra software does the apparent subscription require?

Evidence standard. This edition uses public product, pricing, regulatory, and market sources checked on Sep 6, 2026. A listed capability may depend on plan or configuration. We did not conduct hands-on tests, so we do not publish numerical product scores.

A Singapore solar CRM must preserve each commercial and technical handoff

A compact market does not mean one simple solar journey. A landed-home customer, strata property, landlord, commercial building owner, contestable electricity account, high-tension consumer, and megawatt-scale generator can follow different approval, connection, settlement, and evidence paths. The CRM should identify the account and property context before a salesperson promises timing or returns. It also needs a controlled route from proposal assumptions to finance, the property owner, QP, LEW, retailer, SP Services, SP PowerGrid, installers, and the customer who receives the final system record.

01

IRAS states that the prevailing GST rate is 9% and that a GST-registered business charges GST on its taxable supplies. A proposal system should therefore store prices in SGD, distinguish GST-inclusive and GST-exclusive views, calculate tax on the approved line items, and preserve the rate used when the customer accepts. It should also handle deposits, staged claims, variations, credits, and refunds without letting a sales user rewrite an accountant-approved tax rule. A software setting can apply a rule, but the installer and its adviser remain responsible for the treatment.

Inland Revenue Authority of Singapore: Current GST rates ↗
02

IRAS says a GST-registered supplier generally issues a tax invoice to a GST-registered customer within 30 days from the time of supply. Its required details include the words Tax Invoice, supplier name and address, GST registration number, invoice date and identifying number, customer name and address, a description, GST rate, and totals excluding GST, for GST, and including GST. Simplified tax invoices are allowed for totals up to S$1,000, subject to the published conditions. Tax invoices must generally be kept for at least five years. Test the final finance record, not only the sales quotation.

Inland Revenue Authority of Singapore: Invoicing customers ↗
03

InvoiceNow sends structured invoice data through the Peppol network. IRAS is introducing the requirement in phases rather than on one date for every company. Its current schedule includes specified voluntary GST registration cases from 1 November 2025 and 1 April 2026, followed by later groups from 2028 through 2031. Businesses registered before 2026 have been notified of assigned dates from mid-2026. A CRM does not need to be the InvoiceNow access point, but the approved customer, item, tax, purchase-order, credit, and payment data must reach an InvoiceNow-ready finance system without manual ambiguity.

Inland Revenue Authority of Singapore: GST InvoiceNow requirement ↗
04

EMA guidance says solar vendors commonly engage a Qualified Person and identifies possible approvals involving BCA for structural safety, URA for planning, and SCDF for fire safety. A Licensed Electrical Worker handles electrical licensing, connection requirements, commissioning, and turn-on work. These roles are not interchangeable labels. The job record should show which entity appointed each professional, the scope, submission version, questions, due date, decision, and supporting evidence. A CRM can coordinate this chain, but it cannot replace the professional judgement or authority involved.

Energy Market Authority: Solar implementation guide ↗
05

EMA describes different payment paths for excess solar electricity. Non-contestable consumers can receive a regulated-tariff-based credit after grid charges through the monthly bill. Contestable consumers below 10 MWac may use the SP Services Enhanced Central Intermediary Scheme, whose payments relate to half-hourly wholesale market prices. Other options can include direct Energy Market Company participation or a non-exporting route. Systems of 10 MWac or more register directly with EMC, while systems at 1 MWac and above can face added licensing, registration, or monitoring requirements. Proposals must match the actual account and current scheme.

Energy Market Authority: Payment schemes for excess solar electricity ↗
06

SP Group's non-residential process places key work with the LEW. The LEW submits connection documents to SP Services through the SP eBusiness Portal, SP PowerGrid evaluates technical requirements, and the LEW submits the turn-on application. Depending on the system, the pack can include a declaration of SPPG compliance, a Net Export Rebate form, Letter of Consent, power-quality report, inverter and panel specifications, inverter type-test reports, a single-line diagram, PSO data, and commissioning declarations. The guide reviewed is dated December 2022, so teams must confirm current forms, thresholds, portal steps, and witnessing requirements.

SP Group: Solar PV user guide for non-residential consumers ↗
07

PDPC lists accountability, notification, consent, purpose limitation, accuracy, protection, retention limitation, transfer limitation, access and correction, and breach notification among the main data-protection duties. A solar record may include utility bills, interval consumption, identity and finance material, contact history, roof images, access notes, signatures, and equipment data. The buyer should map purposes, lawful collection, permissions, audit history, retention, correction, export, deletion, incident handling, and marketing suppression before importing records. A consent tick box without its wording, time, source, and purpose is weak evidence.

Personal Data Protection Commission: Data protection obligations ↗
08

The PDPA distinguishes an organisation from a data intermediary processing personal data on its behalf. Due diligence should identify the vendor's role, subprocessors, support access, processing instructions, safeguards, breach notice, retention, return, and deletion. PDPC guidance also requires comparable protection for overseas transfers unless an exception applies, and contracts are one mechanism for meeting that obligation. Singapore hosting may be a commercial preference, but it is not a blanket requirement established by this guidance. Ask where data and backups move, who can access them, and how the installer can obtain a complete export.

Each review explains the useful workflow, the buyer who should shortlist it, and the country-specific question that a sales demo must answer.

Best free design-first platform

OpenSolar

OpenSolar project CRM ↗

OpenSolar is the strongest free design-first option in this comparison, with Singapore localisation and operating fit still to prove.

Core accessFreeDesignSolar and storageCRM viewsTable and KanbanExtensionAPI available

OpenSolar combines solar design, customer proposals, and a project CRM. Its official pages describe table and Kanban views, custom workflows, actions, schedules, documents, user roles, permissions, and an API. That breadth gives a startup one place to test the design-to-sale handoff before buying several subscriptions. Its partner-funded model also makes the commercial structure different from an ordinary seat licence.

Singapore buyers must validate imagery, irradiance, equipment, tariffs, contestable-account export logic, SGD, GST, customer language, owner consent, and SP stages. Review how partner offers appear, where data is processed, and which support tier applies. Test a revised layout after acceptance and trace equipment, price, tax, single-line material, tasks, finance, commissioning, and the final export to find any stale values.

Why shortlist it
  • Solar design, proposals, and project CRM together
  • Core platform is publicly described as free
  • Workflow, document, permission, and API features
  • Useful starting point for a design-led startup
Check before buying
  • Validate Singapore yield, tariff, and export assumptions
  • Test SGD, GST, accounting, and InvoiceNow handoff
  • Review partner model, PDPA terms, transfers, and support
  • Trace revisions through delivery and handover

Choose it if: solar design and proposal quality matter most and the team wants to test a free core platform. Choose another platform if: the company requires verified Singapore finance and field delivery in one contracted operating system.

03
S+
Best for detailed commercial proposals

SolarPlus

SolarPlus pricing ↗

SolarPlus has strong published design and commercial proposal depth, but its Singapore financial and regulatory fit needs direct confirmation.

Design scopeSolar, battery, and loadCommercial analysisPPA and investment outputsFinance claimsXero and StripeSingapore priceQuote required

SolarPlus publishes solar and battery sizing, string design, load assessment, commercial analysis, PPA proposals, custom branding, online acceptance, formula pricing, sales reporting, order and invoice functions, Xero synchronisation, and Stripe payments. This is a useful mix for a team whose sale depends on technical options and a detailed business case rather than a simple pipeline card.

The reviewed commercial page is written around Australian prices, GST, mapping, training, and practice. A Singapore phone-country option does not establish localisation. Ask SolarPlus to model a real Singapore bill and contestable account, then demonstrate SGD, 9% GST, IRAS invoice output, InvoiceNow finance flow, local maps, equipment, SP documents, PDPA terms, support hours, and the currency used for subscription and payment fees.

Why shortlist it
  • Detailed solar, storage, and commercial analysis
  • Custom proposals and online acceptance
  • Published Xero and Stripe connections
  • Supports both residential and complex sales cases
Check before buying
  • Obtain Singapore pricing, currency, tax, and support terms
  • Validate local maps, tariffs, export, and equipment
  • Test IRAS invoice and InvoiceNow-ready finance flow
  • Separate Australian content from Singapore requirements

Choose it if: the sales team needs detailed solar, battery, commercial, or PPA analysis and will verify every Singapore input. Choose another platform if: the company wants a simpler sales CRM or already has a preferred technical-design platform.

04
P
Best compact design and CRM option

Pylon

Pylon pricing ↗

Pylon offers an accessible design, proposal, and CRM combination, subject to proof of price currency and Singapore modelling.

Trial5 Standard Project creditsTeam usersUnlimited statedProposalWeb and PDFCRMOptional solar CRM

Pylon's pricing page describes solar design, battery design, web and PDF proposals, design history, integrations, and an optional solar CRM for leads and projects. It states that new users receive five Standard Project credits and that teams can add unlimited users. Those terms make it possible to test a cross-functional workflow without basing the evaluation only on a vendor demonstration.

Confirm the currency behind every dollar figure and any payment fee before comparing it with SGD alternatives. The product also needs a Singapore test for imagery, irradiance, tariff and export scenarios, equipment, GST, InvoiceNow handoff, consent, data transfers, SP tasks, partner permissions, commissioning, and handover. Verify whether a project-credit rule still fits repeated commercial designs and revisions.

Why shortlist it
  • Solar and battery design with web and PDF proposals
  • Optional solar CRM in the same product family
  • Five-project evaluation route
  • Unlimited team users stated on the pricing page
Check before buying
  • Confirm price currency, taxes, fees, and renewal
  • Validate Singapore models and proposal assumptions
  • Test finance, PDPA, SP, and partner workflows
  • Model project-credit use for commercial revisions

Choose it if: the team wants a compact design and CRM trial and can validate local assumptions and complete commercial terms. Choose another platform if: the buyer needs proven Singapore accounting, regulatory workflow, or deeper enterprise control from the start.

05
A
Best for design-led scaling

Aurora Solar

Aurora pricing ↗

Aurora is a design-led platform for a team prepared to integrate it, with Singapore data and delivery coverage still to verify.

DesignAutomated and custom rulesProposalWeb and PDFControlsRoles and teamsExtensionIntegrations and APIs

Aurora's official pricing comparison includes design tools, automated panel placement, component data, custom design rules, pricing methods, web and PDF proposals, activity tracking, user roles, teams, and API options. It can suit a specialist design desk or a larger sales organisation that wants repeatable modelling and controlled templates connected to an established customer platform.

A Singapore buyer should verify imagery, weather and irradiance sources, local equipment, shading and loss inputs, tariff and export scenarios, SGD, GST, legal text, and technical outputs. Identify which CRM owns the account and accepted scope, then test duplicate contacts, revised designs, API errors, finance, QP and LEW access, SP evidence, and as-built handover. Request complete local pricing.

Why shortlist it
  • Detailed design and automated layout functions
  • Custom pricing and proposal tools
  • Roles, teams, integrations, and API options
  • Fits a specialist design operation
Check before buying
  • Confirm Singapore model data and equipment coverage
  • Request local price, contract, support, and add-on terms
  • Test CRM and delivery integration failure paths
  • Map local technical evidence and revision ownership

Choose it if: design consistency and integration capacity justify a specialist platform and the Singapore model passes expert review. Choose another platform if: the team wants one lightweight tool for sales, finance, field delivery, and handover.

06
D
Best Singapore business-operations candidate

Deskera

Deskera business software ↗

Deskera is the strongest operations-oriented candidate here, although current Singapore finance details and solar connections need proof.

CRMPipelines and activitiesFinanceAccounting and invoicesSupplyOrders and procurementEngineeringExternal solar design

Deskera presents CRM, accounting, invoices, order management, procurement, inventory, warehouse, project accounting, and mobile business functions. This combination can appeal to an installer whose main control problem begins after the sale, when equipment purchases, stock, customer billing, and project costs must agree. A general suite can also support electrical or service work beyond solar.

Do not assume every listed module, GST feature, or local service is included in one Singapore plan. Ask Deskera to demonstrate 9% GST, tax invoices, InvoiceNow status, SGD, deposits, credits, purchase orders, serialised equipment, project costs, mobile evidence, audit history, and export. Add a specialist design tool and test how an accepted equipment revision reaches purchasing, invoice, installation, and warranty records.

Why shortlist it
  • Broad finance and supply-chain scope
  • CRM sits beside accounting and order data
  • Potential fit for multi-service SMEs
  • Can reduce duplicate operational records
Check before buying
  • Verify current Singapore GST and InvoiceNow capability
  • Confirm exact modules, price, onboarding, and support
  • Connect and test a solar design platform
  • Trace equipment revisions through finance and field work

Choose it if: accounting, orders, purchasing, inventory, and customer operations are the main buying priorities. Choose another platform if: the team needs native solar yield modelling and proposal design without a connected specialist product.

07
Z
Best configurable general CRM

Zoho CRM

Zoho CRM pricing ↗

Zoho offers flexible general CRM depth at an accessible entry point, while every Singapore solar workflow must be configured and tested.

Free users3ConfigurationModules and workflowsMobileApps availableSolar engineeringExternal

Zoho CRM supports configurable records, stages, workflow, assignments, reports, mobile apps, portals, and APIs. Its official page publishes a free edition for three users and paid USD tiers. A capable administrator can separate residential, commercial, partner, and service pipelines, require key qualification fields, route approvals, and connect a broader application stack without choosing an installer-specific ERP.

Configuration effort is part of the cost. The buyer must build or connect solar design, SGD proposals, GST, InvoiceNow finance, owner approval, QP and LEW work, SP stages, commissioning, installed assets, and handover. Verify current Zoho Books InvoiceNow status directly. Review PDPA roles, transfers, subprocessors, retention, support, API limits, and exit. Avoid storing key settlement assumptions only in free-text notes.

Why shortlist it
  • Flexible modules, workflow, roles, reports, and APIs
  • Free edition for three users
  • Can support several business lines
  • Wider product suite offers connection options
Check before buying
  • Confirm Singapore price, GST, and InvoiceNow status
  • Budget configuration and ongoing administration
  • Add solar design and delivery evidence tools
  • Review PDPA terms, transfers, retention, and export

Choose it if: the company has a process owner and wants to configure a shared CRM across solar and other services. Choose another platform if: the team expects ready-made solar design, grid, finance, and handover workflows.

08
H
Best for lead capture and marketing

HubSpot CRM

HubSpot free CRM ↗

HubSpot is useful for lead generation and pipeline adoption, but the Singapore solar operating stack around it can become substantial.

Free usersUp to 2Free contactsUp to 1,000Lead toolsForms, email, and meetingsSolar engineeringExternal

HubSpot's free CRM page covers contact and lead management, forms, email, meetings, pipeline, and related customer tools for up to two users and 1,000 contacts. It can suit a marketing-led installer that wants web enquiries, communications, salesperson activity, and reporting in one familiar record. Paid hubs provide an expansion path as marketing, sales, service, content, and data needs grow.

HubSpot is not native solar engineering or Singapore project compliance software. Price the design product, SGD proposal route, accounting, InvoiceNow access, payments, project delivery, storage, messaging, users, contacts, and administration around it. Build controlled fields for account and property context, consent, proposal assumptions, QP, LEW, SP milestones, installation evidence, and service assets. Test sync failures, permission boundaries, retention, transfers, and account export.

Why shortlist it
  • Strong lead capture and communication starting point
  • Free entry for a small user group
  • Broad integrations and expansion paths
  • Useful for marketing-led customer acquisition
Check before buying
  • Calculate total hubs, seats, contacts, and onboarding cost
  • Add solar proposal, design, finance, and project systems
  • Configure Singapore stages and evidence fields
  • Review PDPA, integrations, retention, and export

Choose it if: lead capture, email, meetings, and marketing operations matter most and the buyer can govern a connected stack. Choose another platform if: the installer wants solar engineering and local finance close to the sales record with fewer integrations.

How should a Singapore solar company choose a CRM?

Choose by the most expensive broken handoff, then test that handoff using real opportunities, real users, and the documents your customers actually receive.

Small proposal-led installerQuickest Solar CRM

Use Quickest when slow quotation, scattered enquiries, and missed follow-up are the immediate problems. Run Singapore opportunities through the free plan, including one residential and one commercial case. Continue only after the vendor demonstrates SGD documents, GST, privacy, partner handoffs, support, accounting, connection evidence, and handover in the buyer's own acceptance script.

Free design-first startupOpenSolar

OpenSolar is the practical shortlist when solar design, proposals, and project CRM need a low-cost starting point. Validate Singapore imagery, irradiance, tariff logic, export treatment, SGD and GST documents, partner-funded choices, PDPA terms, integrations, and local support before it becomes the system of record.

Detailed residential and commercial proposalsSolarPlus or Pylon

Both products publish deeper solar design and proposal functions than a general CRM. SolarPlus adds commercial and PPA analysis plus Xero and Stripe claims. Pylon offers a compact design-and-CRM route with trial credits. Require each vendor to demonstrate Singapore modelling, finance, grid, evidence, price currency, and support.

Design-led team with an existing CRMAurora Solar

Aurora fits a team that gives detailed remote design and proposal work high priority and has the budget and process owner to connect it with sales and delivery systems. Verify Singapore imagery, model inputs, components, commercial terms, engineering boundaries, API behaviour, and the ownership of every revised value.

Finance and operations-led SMEDeskera

Deskera is worth evaluating when accounting, invoices, orders, purchasing, inventory, and customer records should sit closer together. It still needs a proven solar design layer and a live test of GST, InvoiceNow, project evidence, PDPA terms, current Singapore modules, implementation, pricing, and support.

Configurable sales or marketing operationZoho CRM or HubSpot CRM

Choose a general CRM when pipeline configuration, forms, email, reporting, and wider commercial integrations matter more than native PV engineering. Budget the administrator, solar design product, finance system, project tools, data governance, and ongoing integration maintenance needed to make the stack work.

The Three-Deal Proof

Run the same three opportunities in every shortlisted CRM: one ordinary lead, one revision-heavy project, and one deal that already failed. This removes demo theatre and exposes repeated entry, stale documents, weak mobile adoption, and missing local support.

  1. 1
    Run the clean deal

    Capture a real lead, assign it, create the proposal, schedule follow-up, record acceptance, and hand it to delivery.

  2. 2
    Change the assumptions

    Change the system, equipment, price, payment route, and installation date. Identify every stale record.

  3. 3
    Recreate a failure

    Use a duplicate, missed follow-up, rejected proposal, or delayed job and ask the CRM to show what happens next.

9 requirements to verify in Singapore

01

SGD proposals and controlled 9% GST

Generate a residential quote, a GST-registered commercial invoice, a deposit, a progress claim, a changed order, a credit note, and a refund in SGD. Confirm line-level tax, inclusive and exclusive displays, rounding, discounts, tax point handling, legal-entity details, and permissions. The signed proposal should retain the equipment, price, GST basis, exclusions, and calculation version even after the master catalogue changes. Finance should approve the setup before live use.

02

IRAS tax invoices and an InvoiceNow finance route

Turn an accepted proposal into the actual accounting record and check every required tax-invoice field, sequential number, customer address, description, net total, GST total, gross total, payment reference, and retention policy. Identify the product that connects to Peppol, the direction of the sync, error ownership, duplicate protection, credit-note flow, and archived evidence. Confirm the company's assigned IRAS InvoiceNow date instead of relying on a generic implementation claim.

03

Property owner, QP, LEW, retailer, and partner handoffs

Set a named owner, required evidence, dependency, due date, and escalation for every handoff. A tenant's interest does not prove owner consent. A salesperson's roof note does not replace the QP's work. A design upload does not prove LEW acceptance or SP approval. Test external collaborator access, version history, restricted financial fields, rejected submissions, revised drawings, reminders, and a full audit export.

04

Residential, commercial, and contestable-account branches

The qualification form should capture premises type, owner and occupier, account holder, electricity retailer, contestable status, connection voltage, proposed AC capacity, export intention, existing generation, and relevant agreements. Use these facts to select the current EMA and SP route. Test a landed home, a non-contestable business, a contestable commercial customer, a high-tension site, and a project above a relevant capacity threshold.

05

Proposal and design assumption control

Store the bill period, consumption profile, tariff source and date, export settlement path, half-hourly assumptions where relevant, system losses, shading, degradation, availability, curtailment, roof access, structural assumptions, equipment, warranty, and model version. Change the array or tariff after sending a proposal and verify that approval history, customer output, material list, finance forecast, and delivery record all show the correct revision.

06

SP Services, SP PowerGrid, connection, and turn-on evidence

Build a current checklist with the LEW and keep forms configurable. Record submission reference, document version, questions, responses, technical evaluation, meter work, commissioning booking, witness requirement, turn-on application, approval, and energisation. For applicable jobs, preserve the Letter of Consent, single-line diagram, equipment specifications, type-test reports, power-quality material, PSO data, and compliance declarations. Do not hard-code a 2022 guide as a permanent workflow.

07

PDPA consent, intermediary, retention, and transfer controls

Capture the notice and consent wording, purpose, source, timestamp, channel, withdrawal, and marketing status. Review the data-processing terms and subprocessor list. Test least-privilege roles, support access, audit events, corrections, retention by record type, secure disposal, backup treatment, breach notices, overseas locations, contractual transfer safeguards, customer requests, and an account-level export. Have the data-protection owner approve the configured process.

Singapore accounting, payments, integrations, and support

Confirm the exact Xero, QuickBooks, Deskera, bank, payment, messaging, calendar, design, and storage editions used by the company. Test field mapping, tax codes, contacts, items, deposits, credits, failed payments, duplicate records, sync errors, API limits, and offboarding. Obtain SGD subscription terms, GST on the software invoice, implementation fees, renewal rules, Singapore support hours, escalation contacts, and response commitments in the order form.

Site, commissioning, and durable handover evidence

The mobile job record should preserve owner access, survey notes, roof and switchboard images, hazards, approved design, installed equipment and serial numbers, as-built single-line diagram, test results, commissioning date, witness evidence, turn-on status, warranties, manuals, monitoring access, customer training, sign-off, defects, and service owner. Test poor connectivity, metadata, required fields, signatures, customer access, retention, and a complete export after cancellation.

Contract rule: A country name on a vendor website does not prove that local billing, documents, integrations, support hours, or regulatory workflows are included in your plan. Put each required capability in the order form.

What does solar CRM software cost in Singapore?

Singapore buyers should compare the cost of the complete operating path rather than one seat price. Quickest publishes INR pricing, OpenSolar describes its core platform as free, and Zoho publishes USD global rates. SolarPlus uses pricing and GST wording aimed at Australia, while Pylon displays dollar prices without enough captured evidence to label the currency for Singapore. Aurora, Deskera, and paid HubSpot configurations need current commercial confirmation. Ask for a Singapore order form that identifies billing currency, GST, users, projects, contacts, usage, storage, integrations, support, implementation, renewal, export, and every connected product needed from enquiry to handover.

Free: 1 user and 10 proposals monthly. Pro: INR 6,999 per user yearly, minimum 3 users. Singapore terms unverified.

OpenSolar says partners fund its free model. Review partner, service, support, and connected-system costs.

The reviewed public page uses Australia-oriented price and GST wording. Do not assume its dollar figures are SGD.

Dollar pricing shown; confirm currencyPylon

The captured official page did not identify the displayed dollar currency clearly enough for a Singapore quote.

Quickest lists a free plan for one user and ten proposals per month. Its Pro plan is INR 6,999 per user per year with a three-user minimum. These are India-market terms, not a verified SGD offer.

OpenSolar says its core platform is free because partner organisations fund the model. Review partner choices, paid services, data use, integrations, and support before treating the total operating cost as zero.

SolarPlus publishes prices and Australian GST notes on the reviewed page. Request a Singapore quote and do not assume the dollar symbol represents SGD or that Australian compliance content applies locally.

Pylon offers new users credits for five Standard Projects and says teams can add unlimited users. Confirm the displayed price currency, project rules, CRM add-on, payment fees, GST treatment, support, and renewal in writing.

General CRM costs can grow with users, contacts, marketing volume, automation, storage, implementation, and connected hubs. Include solar design, finance, InvoiceNow access, project delivery, messaging, and administration in the comparison.

Why Quickest Solar CRM ranks first in Singapore

The product concentrates on the part of the journey that small teams often need to fix first: capture the enquiry, assign responsibility, create a branded proposal, and make the next follow-up visible.

A one-user free plan with ten proposals per month provides a practical way to test adoption before a Singapore company commits to a wider rollout or integration project.

The ranking is conditional. Quickest must pass the same SGD, GST, InvoiceNow, EMA, SP Group, PDPA, accounting, support, commissioning, and handover checks applied to every other vendor.

Frequently asked questions about solar CRM in Singapore

What is the best solar CRM in Singapore?

Quickest Solar CRM is our first pick under a proposal-first adoption lens for a small team that values quick mobile quoting, lead ownership, follow-up, and a free pilot. QuickEstimate owns Quickest, and Singapore localisation remains unverified. OpenSolar is the stronger free design-first option. SolarPlus, Pylon, and Aurora deserve attention when solar modelling drives the sale. The final choice should follow a live Singapore acceptance test.

Does Quickest Solar CRM support Singapore GST and SGD?

We found no verified public evidence for native SGD documents, 9% Singapore GST, IRAS tax invoices, InvoiceNow, or local accounting. Quickest's public evidence is India-first. Require a live quote, deposit, variation, tax invoice, credit note, and finance export in SGD, plus written subscription currency and tax terms. Do not infer local readiness from a configurable currency or tax field.

Does a solar CRM need an InvoiceNow connection?

The CRM itself does not always need to be the Peppol access point. It does need to pass clean customer, item, purchase-order, GST, invoice, credit, and payment data to the company's InvoiceNow-ready finance process. IRAS is phasing the requirement by taxpayer group, so confirm the company's assigned implementation date and test error handling, duplicates, status feedback, and archive evidence.

Can a CRM submit an SP Group solar application?

A CRM can coordinate records, tasks, documents, and status, but it does not replace the LEW, QP, SP Services, SP PowerGrid, or the relevant portal. Ask the vendor to demonstrate configurable checklists, external collaborator access, version history, submission references, questions, approvals, turn-on, commissioning, and export. Confirm the latest SP process because the detailed non-residential guide reviewed was dated December 2022.

What is different about residential and commercial solar workflows in Singapore?

The property relationship, account holder, contestability, retailer, voltage, export plan, system size, professional appointments, approvals, technical studies, settlement route, and commissioning needs can differ. A landed-home lead should not be forced through the same path as a contestable commercial or high-tension account. Capture the qualifying facts early and let the QP, LEW, adviser, and current official guidance determine the route.

Does the PDPA require CRM data to stay in Singapore?

The PDPC material reviewed does not establish a blanket Singapore-hosting requirement. It does require protection comparable to the PDPA for overseas transfers unless an exception applies. Review transfer locations, contracts, subprocessors, support access, safeguards, incident notice, retention, deletion, backups, and export. The company's data-protection owner should approve the actual arrangement rather than relying on a hosting label.

Which free solar CRM should a Singapore installer test?

Quickest has a published one-user plan with ten proposals per month and is useful for testing a focused sales process, although Singapore features are unverified. OpenSolar publishes a free core platform and offers deeper solar design and project CRM functions. Zoho supports three users in its free general CRM, and HubSpot publishes a two-user free CRM. Compare the connected design, finance, support, and administration costs as well as the entry fee.

What should be included in a Singapore solar handover record?

Keep the accepted scope, approved variations, owner permissions, as-built design and single-line diagram, installed equipment and serial numbers, site images, test results, commissioning and turn-on evidence, warranties, manuals, monitoring access, customer instructions, sign-off, defects, and service owner. The exact pack depends on the project and current requirements. Test customer access, retention, and a complete export before choosing the CRM.

How should a team test solar proposal savings in Singapore?

Use the customer's actual tariff and account path, dated consumption data, stated export settlement, half-hourly data where relevant, system production, losses, degradation, self-consumption, curtailment, equipment, and financing. Show assumptions clearly and preserve each revision. Test a non-contestable residential account and a contestable commercial case. A CRM should make the source and owner visible, not present a generic payback number as a guarantee.
