Frequently asked
Everything teams ask before moving from legacy tools.
Solar Ladder provides satellite-based 3D design with automated string sizing, shading analysis, and instant proposal generation. HelioScope is stronger on detailed electrical simulation, but that's all it does — Solar Ladder integrates design with CRM, project management, O&M, and RMS monitoring, eliminating the need for multiple tools.
Solar Ladder is built for Indian solar businesses that need to move fast — from design to proposal to installation to O&M. If your team needs deep electrical simulation for complex utility-scale projects, HelioScope has an edge there. But for the vast majority of residential and commercial installers in India, Solar Ladder's design capabilities are more than sufficient — and come bundled with everything else you need to run your business.
None at all. Solar Ladder has no caps on projects, kW capacity, or proposals. HelioScope limits the number of designs per plan — Solar Ladder doesn't.
The RMS (Remote Monitoring System) dashboard lets you track generation output across every plant you've installed — all from one screen. Spot underperforming sites, share reports with clients, and stay on top of your entire installed base. HelioScope has no equivalent feature.
Yes — Solar Ladder includes a dedicated solar O&M module for managing service tickets, AMC schedules, and maintenance history across your installed base. HelioScope ends at design; Solar Ladder stays with you for the full lifecycle of every plant.
HelioScope charges $159–$259/month (approximately ₹13,300–₹21,700/month) for design only. Solar Ladder is priced in INR and covers your entire business — design, CRM, proposals, project management, O&M, and RMS — with no hidden fees and no usage caps.
