Solar sales still runs on porches and driveways, and the app in a rep’s pocket decides whether a knock turns into a signed proposal or a forgotten pin. We compared 10 door knocking apps on pricing, canvassing depth, and what happens after the homeowner says “come back Thursday.”
The best door knocking app for solar installation businesses in 2026 is QuoteIQ. Its Atlas map puts door knock pins, seven editable status colors, rep notes, and one-tap save-as-contact on every plan from $29.99/mo, then carries the lead into satellite roof measurement, e-signed proposals, and pipeline tracking in the same system. SalesRabbit is the established dedicated canvassing platform for large multi-office teams, while SPOTIO and RepCard suit managers who want deep activity reporting or a leaderboard-driven rep culture. Scout Data helps you pick which doors to knock.
| Rank | Platform | Starting Price | Best For | Standout Feature |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| #1 | QuoteIQ | $29.99/mo flat (Atlas on every plan) | Solar companies that want knock tracking and proposals in one app | Atlas door knock map plus e-signed proposals |
| #2 | SalesRabbit | $59/user/mo (Team); free single-seat Lite | Large multi-office door-to-door teams | Dedicated canvassing with setter and closer scheduling on Pro |
| #3 | SPOTIO | Custom quote | Outside sales organizations that live in manager reports | Territories, location verification, and leaderboards |
| #4 | RepCard | $24/user/mo Starter; $49/user/mo Pro adds canvassing tools | Teams that run on gamification and rep branding | Digital business cards plus leaderboards and competitions |
| #5 | Knockio | $20–$25/user/mo (Prospect) | Budget-minded teams that want contracts and e-sign at the door | Route planning and digital contracts at a low seat price |
| #6 | Ecanvasser | $99/mo listed (Core); unlimited users | Large canvass crews working from big contact databases | Pricing by database size, not headcount |
| #7 | Sunbase | From $59/user/mo; quoted | Solar companies shopping for a solar-specific software suite | Solar CRM, design, and proposal modules beside canvassing tools |
| #8 | Terros | Custom — contact sales | Managers who want coaching and solar data on each pin | Permit, energy usage, and owner data shown on the map |
| #9 | Knockbase | Custom — contact sales | Home services teams new to digital canvassing | Smart maps, auto-routing, and a commission calculator |
| #10 | Scout Data | Flat monthly rate, quoted after a free test batch | Solar teams that need better lists before they knock | Roof age, permit history, and owner contact data |
Prices were checked on each vendor’s own pricing page on October 8, 2026. SPOTIO publishes no price, Sunbase publishes only a starting point, and Terros, Knockbase, and Scout Data publish none, so those rows read “custom” rather than a guess. Vendor pricing changes often, so confirm current rates before you buy.
We’re QuoteIQ. We made this list. We also picked our own platform as #1 — here’s exactly why, with the trade-offs each tool brings to the table. Every other app on this page earned its spot on published facts, and where the only source was a competitor’s blog post or the vendor’s own marketing, we say so in the entry.
Five evaluation criteria drove every ranking decision:
Our sources were vendor pricing and feature pages, G2 listings, the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the Federal Trade Commission, SEIA, state legislative materials, and QuoteIQ’s own product documentation. We did not run hands-on tests of the competing apps. Our competitor findings come from what those vendors publish, so treat every entry as a starting point and book a demo before you commit.
Two things shaped the order. First, we ranked apps on how well they serve a solar installation company’s knock-to-signature workflow, not on how large the vendor is. Second, a published, verifiable price counted for more than a polished demo, so an app we couldn’t price lands below an equivalent one we could.
We also looked at Badger Maps, a route planner for outside sales reps with Business plans at $58 per user per month billed annually or $69 billed monthly. It’s a sound tool for planned customer visits, but it isn’t built around cold, door-by-door status tracking, so it sits outside this ranking.
“Response speed is the most controllable conversion variable in home service, and it’s the one most operators treat as an afterthought.”
— Justin Rogers, Co-Founder of QuoteIQ
QuoteIQ is the platform we built, so read this entry knowing that. Atlas is its prospecting map: your customers, active jobs, saved areas, and door knocks on one satellite map. A rep drops a pin on a house, picks a status, types a note, and when the homeowner is interested, saves the pin as a QuoteIQ contact in one tap. That same record then moves into a measured, priced, e-signed proposal without anyone retyping an address into a second system.
For solar installers the sale rarely closes at the door. It closes at the kitchen table two days later, after a roof measurement, a system size, a proposal, and usually a follow-up call. Most door knocking apps stop at the pin. QuoteIQ keeps going, which is why it takes the top spot on a list built for solar installation companies rather than for generic outside sales teams.
Best for: Solar installation companies with 1 to 20 users that want knocks, proposals, and follow-up in one place instead of a canvassing app, a CRM, and an e-sign tool working separately.
Mike Vidan’s rule for home service sales applies directly to the gap between the knock and the proposal:
“Same price, same quality, just slower. Slower lost.”
— Mike Vidan, Co-Founder of QuoteIQ
Atlas is included on every QuoteIQ plan. Essentials is $29.99/mo for 1 user, Beginner is $99.99/mo for 2 users, Pro is $199.99/mo for 4 users, Elite is $299.99/mo for 10 users, and Max is $699.99/mo for 20 users. Extra users are $25 per month on any paid plan, annual billing includes two months free, and every plan starts with a 14-day free trial. The pricing page lists what unlocks at each tier, and a trial of a lower tier doesn’t unlock higher-tier features.
Pros
Cons
Verdict: If you’re a solar installer with 1 to 20 users who closes your own leads, QuoteIQ is the strongest all-in-one option on this list. A solo knocker can start on Essentials at $29.99/mo, and a 10-person team lands on Elite at $299.99/mo with Routing, the Employees view, and Pipelines. Solar companies that also produce engineered plan sets will still run design software beside it, and teams whose culture runs on daily leaderboards, contests, and digital business cards should look hard at RepCard or SalesRabbit, which build those into the product.

Go deeper: Atlas door knocking and lead generation, proposals with online signing, MapMeasure Pro, and Pipelines.
SalesRabbit is the category incumbent: a canvassing platform built around territories, rep tracking, and the field-sales management that big door-to-door organizations need. Its public pricing is unusually detailed, which is part of why it ranks second. The Team plan covers advanced canvassing, route planning, rep location tracking, and a built-in sketch board. Pro adds custom fields, map overlays, lead file attachments, gamification, API access, and a scheduler for setters and closers, a split common in solar sales.
Review-site sentiment is solid: G2 shows 4.5 out of 5 across 433 reviews. The catch is commercial structure. Contracts run one to three years with pricing locked for the term, seats are billed per user upfront, an implementation package is always required, and the pricing page states that paid plans have no free trial.
Best for: Large multi-office door-to-door organizations with a dedicated sales operations owner.
Pros
Cons
Verdict: Pick SalesRabbit when you run dozens of reps across several offices, have a sales operations person to own the tool, and are comfortable with a multi-year commitment. For a solar company under 20 users, the contract terms and add-on math rarely beat an all-in-one that already contains the proposal.
Ask in the demo: Which add-ons are required for homeowner data and digital contracts, how long the contract term is, what the implementation package costs, and which features are specific to solar.
SPOTIO is a field sales platform for outside sales organizations, with door-to-door as one of its use cases. Its B2C plan, the one residential solar teams would use, lists territory creation and management, team location tracking, offline access through a Download My Day feature, activity tracking, location verification, leaderboards, territory hierarchies, and performance analytics. Dedicated implementation and customer success managers come with every plan.
SPOTIO does not publish a per-user price. Its pricing page says pricing is user-based and delivered by quote, and the FAQ says there is no free trial, only demos and pilot programs for qualified prospects. The minimum team size is unclear on the page: the FAQ mentions teams of five or more field sales professionals, while the plan support sections reference 25 licenses or more.
Best for: Solar sales organizations with managers who coach from activity data.
Pros
Cons
Verdict: SPOTIO fits a solar sales organization with a sales manager, a CRM already in place, and enough reps to justify an implementation. It is the wrong first purchase for a small installer who wants to see a price and start a trial this afternoon.
Ask in the demo: The per-user price at your team size, the minimum license count, which add-ons you need for e-contracts, and which CRMs it syncs with.
RepCard started as a digital business card for field reps and has grown into a field sales platform. Its own materials say it was built for door-to-door canvassing and targets solar and roofing alongside HVAC, pest control, and fiber. The pitch is rep engagement: a digital card with a QR code, credibility content shown to homeowners after the knock, automated follow-up, leaderboards, and competitions.
The plan structure matters. Starter at $24 per user covers team chat, basic leaderboards, a team calendar, and basic reporting. Canvassing tools, advanced leaderboards, competitions, a training library, and API access sit on Pro at $49. The pricing page shows a Yearly/Monthly toggle and a “Save 17%” badge without clearly saying which billing period the listed figure reflects, so confirm that before you budget.
Best for: Commission-driven solar sales teams that run on leaderboards, contests, and branding.
Pros
Cons
Verdict: Pick RepCard when your reps are commission-driven, your managers run contests, and credibility at the door is a priority. Treat it as the culture and canvassing layer, and budget separately for the system where the solar proposal gets built and signed.
Ask in the demo: Which billing period the listed price reflects, what the canvassing tools include at your team size, and how it connects to the CRM or proposal tool you use for solar.
Knockio publishes its prices plainly: per-user monthly billing, prorated, with no contracts and no setup fees. The lowest tier, Prospect, is $20 per user per month at five or more users and $25 at one to four. It includes unlimited territories and campaigns, route planning and optimization, real-time rep tracking, presentations, digital contracts and e-signature, an automation builder, and appointment scheduling, with free onboarding and support.
Growth, marked as the recommended plan, runs $45 per user at five or more users ($60 at one to four) and adds pipelines and lead management, estimates and work orders, invoices and payments, and product and inventory management, with a dedicated success manager. Organize ($30–$35) is aimed at field service, and Scale is custom for 100 or more users. Add-ons include Engage phone numbers at $15 per number per month and Pre-Knocked Data at 15 cents per address.
Do the math at your real headcount. Ten users on Growth at the five-plus rate is $450 per month, against $299.99 for QuoteIQ Elite at 10 users, though the products differ in scope and Knockio’s strength is canvassing campaigns.
Best for: Small and mid-size solar sales teams that want per-seat pricing without a contract.
Pros
Cons
Verdict: A sensible pick for a small-to-mid solar sales team that wants published per-seat pricing, e-sign at the door, and no contract. Compare Growth against an all-in-one at your real headcount before you assume per-seat is cheaper.
Ask in the demo: Whether solar proposals, roof measurement, and financing paperwork are supported, and what Pre-Knocked Data coverage looks like in your counties.
Ecanvasser prices by database size and territory, not headcount, and every plan includes unlimited users and teams. That is unusual in this category and makes it worth a look for big canvass crews or seasonal surges. Core covers a custom canvassing app, team and territory management, a route planner, custom interaction tracking, dynamic lists, analytics, and appointment scheduling and reminders. Real-time field tracking is included on Pro and optional on Core, and lead prospecting is a U.S.-only add-on.
The pricing page is inconsistent, and we’d rather tell you than pick a number. The plan cards list $99 per month for Core and $599 for Pro, while the calculator shows $299 per month for up to 50,000 contacts on Core and $1,299 for up to 1 million contacts on Pro, and both plans carry a “$234 billed monthly” label. Enterprise carries a 12-month minimum. SPOTIO’s comparison guide describes Ecanvasser’s positioning as telecom and political canvassing. That is a competitor’s description, so judge for yourself in a demo.
Best for: Large canvass crews and seasonal surges where unlimited users matter more than solar-specific workflow.
Pros
Cons
Verdict: Worth a demo if you run a very large seasonal canvass crew and headcount is your cost driver. For a typical solar installer, a flat or per-seat price that already includes the proposal step is easier to plan around.
Ask in the demo: The exact monthly price for your contact volume, which add-ons you need, and whether solar workflows like appointment handoff are supported.
Sunbase approaches the problem from the solar side. Its pricing page says it avoids rigid tiers and configures the platform by business size, starting at $59 per user per month and priced by user count, industry workflow, modules, and onboarding. Selectable modules include a contractor CRM and sales management, proposal and estimation, project management, inventory and asset management, financial management, and reporting dashboards, with separate pages for solar CRM, solar design, solar proposal, and solar project management software.
Its door-to-door software page describes canvassing tools for mapping territories, tracking interactions, and managing leads, plus route optimization, integrated appointment scheduling, achievement badges, a live map of rep locations, a commission algorithm, and digital business cards. We confirmed those features on Sunbase’s own blog post about its door-to-door product, which a search listing dates to October 2022, so ask which are current and which configurations include them.
Best for: Solar companies that want design, proposal, and project tools from one vendor.
Pros
Cons
Verdict: Sunbase deserves a demo if you want solar design and project management from the same vendor as your canvassing tool. It ranks seventh because plan-level detail and current door-to-door features were the hardest to verify from public pages.
Ask in the demo: Which door-to-door features are in your configuration, the all-in price for your user count and modules, and how design and permit workflows connect to the canvassing map.
Terros describes itself as a field sales leadership platform for door-to-door teams, built so managers can see what’s actually happening in the field and coach rather than chase. The map shows every door, lets managers draw areas and assign them to reps, and tracks coverage. An Activity Trail records each day’s knocks, addresses, and working hours, and Leaderboards, Competitions, and AI Skill Insights round out the coaching side. Native iOS and Android apps include an offline mode for routes without signal.
For solar teams, Terros lists permits, energy usage, and owners on each pin, re-pitch lists for customers of bankrupt installers, and a pipeline that runs through to installed. Its Canvass Pro layer adds premium property and homeowner data on each pin, with filters such as owner-occupied homes. The homepage lists no prices and says pricing is tailored to your size and model. A third-party guide reports in-app subscriptions of $29.99 per month for Canvass Pro and $49.99 for Canvass Max, but we couldn’t confirm those on Terros’ own site, so treat them as unverified.
Best for: Solar sales organizations that want pin-level data and manager coaching.
Pros
Cons
Verdict: Terros is a strong demo candidate for solar sales organizations that want data on the pin and coaching tools for managers. The missing price is why it sits eighth.
Ask in the demo: The all-in price at your team size, which counties have permit and energy-usage data, and how a knocked door becomes a proposal.
Knockbase calls itself all-in-one canvassing and door-to-door sales software for home services, including solar, roofing, and pest control. Reps plan routes with smart maps and auto-routing, capture leads with custom forms and photos, book appointments on the spot, and check in from the field. Managers get live rep tracking, territory mapping, territory reporting, gamified leaderboards, and a smart commission calculator.
Pricing isn’t shown on its homepage, we couldn’t load a pricing page, and the site mentions a demo but no free trial. SPOTIO’s comparison guide, which is a competitor’s view, says Knockbase’s CRM integration is limited, that it has no offline mode, and that it is aimed at home services teams new to digital canvassing. We couldn’t verify those claims, so ask about them directly.
Best for: Home services teams moving from paper maps to a first canvassing app.
Pros
Cons
Verdict: A reasonable demo for a team stepping up from paper maps and spreadsheets. Without public pricing or documented proposal tools, it ranks ninth.
Ask in the demo: The price at your team size, how it behaves offline, which CRMs it integrates with, and whether it supports e-signed proposals.
Scout isn’t a door knocking tracker, and it doesn’t pretend to be. It’s a data layer that tells you which doors to knock. Each property record can include the address, the owner name as it appears on title, one active mobile number, home value, build year, time in the home, utility territory, and roof age for owner-occupied homes with roofs past 15 years, drawn from permit and build records. Filters cover modeled credit score and income range, estimated electric bill, sun hours, EV ownership, and outage exposure.
Solar-specific lists include homes with no panels on the roof (permits cross-checked against aerial imagery), aged solar leads, existing solar homeowners for battery or second-system pitches, and homes where a solar permit was approved but panels were never installed. Pricing is a flat monthly rate rather than per record, quoted after a free test batch that arrives within 24 hours of your market brief, and the plan is month to month with no contract. The caveat: nearly everything we know about Scout comes from Scout’s own pages, including the guide to door knocking apps on its site.
Best for: Solar teams that knock many doors and set few appointments.
Pros
Cons
Verdict: A smart add-on for a team that knocks a lot of doors and sets few appointments. It ranks tenth only because it solves a different problem than the nine apps above it. Pair it with a tracker that records what happens at each door.
Ask in the demo: Which counties are covered, how roof-age records are sourced, how the test batch is scored, and how the data fits with the tracker your reps use.
Residential solar is getting harder to sell even as the industry grows, which raises the value of every doorstep conversation.
Read the last two market numbers together. Total U.S. installations grew 45% year over year in Q2 2026 while the residential segment fell 12%, so residential crews are competing for a shrinking share of a growing market. When each doorstep conversation costs more to earn, tracking which knocks became appointments, and which appointments became signatures, matters more than counting doors.
Whatever app you pick, your process has to survive a regulator’s questions. The FTC Cooling-Off Rule requires sellers to tell door-to-door buyers about their right to cancel within three business days. States can go further. According to the Texas Legislature’s committee analysis of SB 1036, residential solar retailers must register with the state, buyers can cancel until the fifth business day, and soliciting a home with posted no-solicitation signage is prohibited. Aurora Solar’s regulatory roundup reports that Connecticut limits cold door-knocking to 9am–8pm and requires door-to-door reps to carry ID, and that Texas rules add a 24-hour gap between delivering the state brochure and signing a contract.
That’s why a Do Not Knock status, notes on every pin, an exportable knock list, and location-verified activity are more than nice-to-haves. We’re not lawyers, and rules change, so check your state licensing board and your attorney before you write your canvassing playbook.
Pick QuoteIQ Essentials at $29.99/mo. You get Atlas pins and statuses, proposals with e-signature, and a 14-day trial to confirm the fit. Essentials includes 500 IQ Credits a month and a proposal draws 100 per estimate, so check how credits stretch across your volume. If all you need is a free map, SalesRabbit Lite costs nothing for one seat, but you’ll need other tools to quote and sign.
QuoteIQ Beginner ($99.99/mo, 2 users) or Pro ($199.99/mo, 4 users). Beginner adds MapMeasure Pro for roof measurements, and Pro leaves room for a second closer. Knockio Prospect at $25 per user for one to four users is the cheaper pins-and-contracts alternative if you already have a CRM.
QuoteIQ Elite at $299.99/mo covers 10 users and adds Atlas Routing, the Employees map, and Pipelines for tracking deals from first knock to install. If rep motivation is your bottleneck, price RepCard Pro at $49 per user: eight reps is $392 a month before you add a proposal tool.
QuoteIQ Max at $699.99/mo includes 20 users and the Sales Team Tracker for per-employee commission. Knockio Growth at the five-plus rate would cost $675 for 15 users and $900 for 20, with a different feature mix, so price both against your real headcount.
SalesRabbit Pro or SPOTIO give you the deepest field-management layer, at the cost of multi-year terms or a quote-only price. QuoteIQ Max stretches past 20 users at $25 per extra seat, so 30 users runs $949.99/mo, a fair trade if one system for knocks, proposals, and commissions matters more than dedicated canvassing depth.
Commercial prospecting looks different from neighborhood canvassing. QuoteIQ’s Atlas Lead Generator searches business types such as property managers by ZIP code or drawn area, and Pipelines track long deal cycles. If you want solar design and project management from one vendor, add Sunbase to your demo list.
Start with QuoteIQ Essentials or Knockio Prospect. Both put pins, notes, and statuses on a phone-sized map with little setup. Run a one-neighborhood pilot with two reps for a week before you roll anything out to the whole team.
Built the candidate list from guides, review sites, and vendor pages. We started with the apps that show up in third-party and vendor door knocking guides and on review sites, then kept the ones that serve residential or commercial solar sales. That left SalesRabbit, SPOTIO, RepCard, Knockio, Ecanvasser, Sunbase, Terros, Knockbase, and Scout Data to compare against QuoteIQ.
Verified pricing on each vendor’s own pages as of October 8, 2026. We read the pricing pages for SalesRabbit, SPOTIO, RepCard, Knockio, Ecanvasser, Sunbase, and Scout Data. Where a vendor publishes no price, we wrote “custom” instead of repeating a third-party figure, and we flagged the one set of third-party prices we found for Terros as unverified.
Matched features against a ten-point door-to-door checklist. The list covered territory drawing, status pins, notes, routing, rep tracking, offline use, leaderboards, property or roof data, proposals and e-signature, and follow-up after the knock. Features we couldn’t confirm on a vendor’s own page were hedged or left out.
Checked review-site ratings and flagged who reported them. G2 lists SalesRabbit at 4.5 out of 5 across 433 reviews. SPOTIO’s 4.5 across 387 reviews is vendor-reported, and several smaller apps have too little public review data to score. QuoteIQ’s 4.7 average across 4,103 reviews comes from its own listings.
Added operator perspective from Mike Vidan and Justin Rogers. Both Co-Founders ran home service businesses before co-founding QuoteIQ in 2022. We pulled one quote from each of their insights pages and used it where it bears on a canvassing decision.
“We have a window and solar company called The Window & Solar Ninjas in Cali and needed to find a user friendly quoting software and this is the best for our money!”
“Real easy to navigate with an arsenal of tools that’ll help keep business flowing.”
“Route optimization and team assignment features have made managing my crews so much easier.”
None of the reviews in our database are tagged solar installation, and none is about door knocking. Two of these come from owners who run solar-related businesses (a window and solar company and a solar panel cleaning startup), and the third is a general review about managing crews. All three are 5-star reviews quoted word for word.
Mike co-founded QuoteIQ with Justin Rogers after more than 20 years running a pressure washing business and building a YouTube audience of home service professionals. His insights page answers practical questions on quoting speed, customer follow-up, and running crews.
Read Mike’s insights →Justin co-founded QuoteIQ alongside Mike. A serial entrepreneur and pressure washing business owner, he runs the ForeverSelfEmployed YouTube channel, and his insights page covers response speed, software adoption, and customer follow-up.
Read Justin’s insights →QuoteIQ is the best door knocking app for most solar installation businesses in 2026. Atlas puts door knock pins, seven editable statuses, notes, and save-as-contact on every plan from $29.99/mo, and the same system handles roof measurement, e-signed proposals, and pipeline tracking. SalesRabbit is the stronger pick for large multi-office teams, and SPOTIO suits managers who need deep field reporting.
Published prices run from $20 per user per month (Knockio Prospect at five or more users) to $75 (SalesRabbit Pro billed monthly), with RepCard at $24 and $49. QuoteIQ is a flat $29.99/mo for one user up to $699.99/mo for 20. SPOTIO, Terros, Knockbase, and Scout Data publish no price, and Ecanvasser prices by contact database size rather than users.
A few are free for one person. SalesRabbit Lite is free for a single seat, and RepCard has a free personal plan built around a digital business card. Neither replaces a full team plan. QuoteIQ has no permanent free tier but starts every plan with a 14-day free trial, and Ecanvasser offers a 7-day trial.
QuoteIQ Essentials at $29.99/mo is the best fit for a solo rep who also sends the proposal, because Atlas pins, notes, and e-signed proposals live in one app. Knockio Prospect costs $25 per user for one to four users and adds route planning and digital contracts. SalesRabbit Lite is free but limited to one seat and lacks team management tools.
QuoteIQ Beginner ($99.99/mo, 2 users), Pro ($199.99/mo, 4 users), or Elite ($299.99/mo, 10 users) cover most small solar teams, with Elite adding Atlas Routing, the Employees map, and Pipelines. RepCard Pro at $49 per user and Knockio Growth at $45 to $60 per user are credible alternatives if rep gamification or per-seat pricing matters more.
SalesRabbit and SPOTIO have the deepest field-management layers for 20+ reps, at the cost of one-to-three-year contracts (SalesRabbit) or quote-only pricing (SPOTIO). QuoteIQ Max ($699.99/mo for 20 users, $25 per extra user) keeps knocks, proposals, and commission tracking in one system. Request demos of at least two before you decide.
QuoteIQ and Terros both offer native iOS and Android apps. QuoteIQ holds a 4.7-star average across 4,103 reviews on its own listings, and Terros advertises an offline mode. SPOTIO’s Download My Day feature keeps a route usable without signal. Test any app in your worst-coverage neighborhood before you roll it out to the whole team.
QuoteIQ’s Atlas ships with seven statuses (Not Home, Knocked — No Answer, Contacted, Interested — Follow Up, Not Interested, Do Not Knock, and Appointment Set) that you can rename, recolor, reorder, and extend. SalesRabbit, SPOTIO, RepCard, and Terros also track lead dispositions or activities, so compare how many taps each status takes in a live demo.
It depends on the data you need. Scout Data focuses on roof age, permit history, sun hours, and owner contact. Terros shows permits, energy usage, and owners on each pin, SalesRabbit sells DataGrid AI as an add-on, and Knockio sells Pre-Knocked Data at 15 cents per address. QuoteIQ Atlas shows property lines free and sells full property records from $99 per ZIP code.
QuoteIQ includes proposals with e-signature on all five plans, and Knockio’s Prospect plan includes digital contracts and e-signature. SalesRabbit sells Digital Contracts as a per-user add-on, and SPOTIO lists E-Contracts as an add-on. Sunbase lists a proposal and estimation module. Check how each handles solar-specific paperwork.
QuoteIQ’s Sales Team Tracker on the Max plan ($699.99/mo) calculates earnings from collected revenue and separates due from paid commission per employee. Knockbase lists a smart commission calculator, and Sunbase describes a commission algorithm for setting and tracking targets. Confirm in a demo how each handles splits and setter and closer credit.
Most dedicated canvassing apps include it. SalesRabbit (Plan Routes on Team), SPOTIO, Knockio, Ecanvasser, Knockbase, and Sunbase all list routing. QuoteIQ’s Atlas Routing, on Elite and Max, puts a day’s jobs in the best driving order. Ask each vendor whether routing sequences the doors on a street or only scheduled appointments.
Federal rules require sellers to tell door-to-door buyers about a three-business-day right to cancel under the FTC Cooling-Off Rule, and states add their own. Texas SB 1036 adds registration for residential solar retailers and a five-business-day cancellation window, and Connecticut limits cold door-knocking to 9am to 8pm. Rules change, so confirm with your state licensing board or an attorney.
Read your contract first. SalesRabbit’s pricing page says contracts run one to three years and that cancellation must be completed before the next billing cycle begins. Then export your lead and customer history, run both tools in parallel for a week, and cut over. QuoteIQ offers data migration assistance to help with the move.
SPOTIO publishes no price, so any comparison starts with a quote. Alternatives with published prices include Knockio at $20 to $25 per user, RepCard at $24 to $49 per user, and QuoteIQ at a flat $29.99/mo for one user up to $699.99/mo for 20 users. Scope differs, so compare what each includes beyond the map before you compare totals.
Log the outcome on the pin while you’re still at the door, then move interested homeowners into a proposal the same day, because the first clear reply sets the benchmark everyone else is judged against. In QuoteIQ, an Interested — Follow Up pin can be saved as a contact in one tap, and the proposal’s activity log shows when the homeowner views it.
Trusted by thousands of verified contractors · 4.7★ average rating · 4,103+ reviews on App Store + Google Play
For most solar installation businesses in 2026, QuoteIQ is the best door knocking app because the knock is only the first step of the sale. Atlas gives your reps pins, statuses, notes, and saved areas from $29.99/mo, and the same system measures the roof, builds the proposal, collects the signature, and tracks the deal. Teams that need more can step up to Elite for Routing, the Employees map, and Pipelines, or to Max for commission tracking.
SalesRabbit remains the right choice for large multi-office organizations that can live with multi-year terms. SPOTIO and Terros reward managers who coach from activity data, RepCard rewards a leaderboard culture, Knockio is the straightforward per-seat option, Sunbase is worth a demo for a solar-specific suite, and Scout Data improves the list you’re knocking from.
Residential solar is getting harder to sell even as the industry grows. The companies that win will know which doors they knocked, which homeowners said “come back Thursday,” and which proposals sat unopened, and they’ll act on all three the same day. QuoteIQ is built for that follow-through, and its 14-day free trial is the cheapest way to test it.
14-day free trial on every plan. Plans start at $29.99/mo.
