FAQ

Everything you want to know before booking a demo.

What is CRM software for installers?

CRM software for installers is a customer management tool built specifically for installation companies. Unlike generic CRM systems, it connects your leads, quotes, projects, and after-sales service in one place, so your sales pipeline and your operations stay in sync from the first contact to the final handover.

Do my consultants need technical training to use the calculation tools?

The tools are designed to be used on-site by sales consultants, not engineers. The PV Designer handles string validation and technical checks automatically, flagging errors without requiring the user to understand the underlying rules. The battery and heat pump calculators guide the user through a step-by-step input flow and generate the recommendation from there. Most consultants are comfortable running a full calculation independently within their first few demos.

Can I take all my data with me to OpusFlow?

You can migrate a large part of your data to OpusFlow via a fixed Excel template. It is worth considering whether all your historical data still needs to be active in the system, as you can always choose to store older data elsewhere and start with a clean slate in OpusFlow.

Can customers see photos from their installation in the Customer Portal?

Yes. Field-captured photos linked to the project are displayed in a gallery within the portal, including installation progress images and final commissioning shots. It’s a straightforward way to keep customers informed and build confidence in the quality of the work being done.

Does the CRM connect to quoting and project management?

It does. When a lead becomes a customer, their data flows directly into their first project and quote. There is no re-entering information, no copy-pasting between systems, and no risk of details getting lost in the handover from sales to operations.

Can I import data from my current CRM?

Yes! Our team imports data from other commonly used systems every day. Customer data and other relevant information can be migrated as part of your onboarding process.

What’s the difference between the automation engine and OpusAgent?

The automation engine runs predefined rule-based workflows in the background — you set the trigger and the actions once, and they fire automatically whenever the conditions are met. OpusAgent is the AI layer that lets you give instructions in plain language and get results on demand. They work well together: automations handle the predictable, recurring work, and OpusAgent handles the ad-hoc requests that would otherwise need manual effort.
