Solar Mapping Software

It is software that turns lead lists, customer records and install data into a map a solar business can plan from. Maptive runs in the browser and builds the map from ordinary spreadsheet columns, so no GIS background is involved. It is a business mapping tool rather than a solar-design or irradiance tool, and it works from the data you give it. More than 60 mapping and analysis tools come on every plan, from territories and heat maps to route optimization and spreadsheet exports taken directly from the map.

Maptive's 45 Day Pass is $250 for one user, which fits a single campaign or a market review. The Pro plan is $1,250 a year or $110 a month billed monthly. The Team plan is $2,500 a year or $220 a month, and it covers five users with collaboration and a dedicated success manager. Enterprise pricing is volume-based. All 60+ tools and the census data come with every tier, so the choice is about users and data capacity rather than features.

Yes. The trial lasts 10 days and asks for no credit card, with every tool unlocked from the first login. Your team evaluates the platform on its own lead list rather than demo data, so anything built during the trial reflects your actual market. Upload a spreadsheet or paste from the clipboard, and a working map is ready in minutes. When the trial ends, the account expires unless you choose a plan, and no billing information is collected at signup.

No. Maptive was built for people who have useful data and no background in geographic information systems. The tools work through the map interface, and every change shows its effect as you click. Most users have a first working map within about thirty minutes. When a question comes up, the US and Canada support team answers by phone and email in under 15 minutes, and onboarding covers data setup and team training for companies that want it. No installation is required.

Export the list to Excel or CSV and upload it directly, or paste rows from the clipboard. Geocoding happens during the upload and reconciles what the file contains, including missing ZIP codes and inconsistent address fields. Every other column stays attached to its marker, so lead stage, system size and install date become things to color by and filter on. For a list that updates, a connected Google Sheet or CRM sync refreshes the map when the source does, and no reformatting is needed first.

No. Maptive maps and analyzes the business data you give it, such as leads, installs and territories. It does not measure roof geometry, shading or irradiance, and it is not a design tool. If your question is where your customers are, which neighborhoods fit the offer, or how to route a day of assessments, that is exactly what the platform answers. Design and production estimates belong to a different category of software. Support can clarify which questions fit the tool.

Every plan includes more than 50 US Census variables at no extra cost, published at state, county, ZIP code, census-tract and block-group level, with Canadian data included as well. The variables cover population density, household income and age, among other measures, and they appear underneath your own records. That pairing lets you match the offer to the profile of each neighborhood instead of treating every ZIP code as identical. It is included on every plan, with nothing extra to buy.

Maptive encrypts data with 256-bit SSL in transit and at rest, and access controls include two-factor authentication and single sign-on, with role-based permissions set per user, so a partner can be given one map and nothing else. Sensitive columns can be hidden from everyone you share with, and passwords can be required on shared links. Audit logging records what was accessed and by whom, and uptime across 2025 was 99.9%. The platform passed the Salesforce AppExchange security review, and regional storage options are available.

Yes. A shared map opens from a link without a Maptive account, so an installer or a partner sees the same live version with no login to manage. The map owner controls what each viewer can do, from which tools appear to which data columns are visible. A correction made once reaches every viewer without the file being re-sent, and routes open with turn-by-turn directions on a phone. No license is needed on the viewer's side, and each partner can get a different view.

One map can show over 200,000 markers, and a data set can include up to 100,000 locations on the Pro and Team plans, or 50,000 on the 45 Day Pass. Enterprise capacity is volume-based for larger holdings. Every marker has the columns that came with it, so filtering and heat weighting work at full volume rather than on a sample. For very large lists, the filter tool is the practical way to work, since one territory can be isolated and shared on its own.
