Sunbase

Sunbase occupies a narrow but defensible position in the field sales software market: it's the only platform reviewed here that covers the full solar and roofing sales cycle from initial canvassing all the way through proposal generation, contract signing, and post-sale project management. Founded in 2018, Sunbase was built specifically for industries where the person who knocks the door needs to be connected — in the same system — to the project manager who schedules the installation. That vertical depth is its strongest card.

The canvassing module works as expected: territory mapping, pin drop logging, lead status tracking, and appointment setting are all present and functional. Where Sunbase earns its differentiation is what happens after the knock. Built-in proposal tools allow reps to generate solar or roofing quotes in the field from a tablet, with real pricing pulled from pre-configured product catalogs. Digital contracts with e-signature eliminate the paper process that slows down many D2D operations. That flow — knock, demo, quote, sign — can happen in a single visit with Sunbase in a way that most competing platforms require three separate tools to replicate.

The platform's reporting covers both sales activity and project delivery, giving managers visibility across both teams in a single dashboard. For a solar company trying to reduce the gap between 'sold' and 'installed,' that cross-functional visibility has real operational value. Users on G2 rate the platform 4.2/5, citing the all-in-one workflow as the primary reason for choosing it. Setup support is consistently praised, with most teams going live within a week.

The weaknesses are real and depend on what you're comparing Sunbase to. Against SPOTIO or SalesRabbit on the pure D2D canvassing experience — territory analytics, rep performance dashboards, real-time activity tracking — Sunbase falls short. The UI is functional but not polished, and the mobile experience, while adequate, doesn't match the fluidity of RepMove or SalesRabbit. Third-party integrations are limited: if you're running HubSpot or a Salesforce instance as your system of record, syncing Sunbase data requires manual work or custom development.

Pricing is not published and requires a sales call — a friction point for independent research. Given the all-in-one scope, expect pricing in the mid-market range, likely competitive with SPOTIO's team plans. For a 10–50 rep solar or roofing operation that wants to unify canvassing, proposals, contracts, and project management in a single vendor relationship, Sunbase is worth serious evaluation. For general D2D canvassing or account management outside solar and roofing, better-fit options exist.
