How much is a Pro membership?

IE users can register with a monthly direct debit for just €35. No contracts or long-term obligations required. Once logged in at Easy-PV, Click the Upgrade to Pro link at the top right of the page or follow the instructions on the homepage to unlock the full package.

Is there a discount for multiple Pro users?

Every additional Pro account within a single organisation benefits from a 50% discount. At the reduced rate of €17.50 users gain the ability to work collaboratively while sharing projects, components and report templates. Looking for 20 plus users? Get in touch regarding our Enterprise package.

Why is there a charge?

Representing many years of development time, Easy-PV is not your typical manufacturer designer or wholesale portal. As a comprehensive stand alone tool, our online solution very much rivals design packages such as PV*SOL. Offering industry leading value for money, installers rely on Easy-PV to support their front line sales teams with a feature rich all-in-one solution.

How about custom reports?

For an additional fee, custom report sections can be hosted for use within Easy-PV. These can either be static pages or dynamic sections which may change depending on the details of the project:

Static - €115 Development charge per section - Monthly fee increase of €6 per section

Dynamic - €135 Development charge per section - Monthly fee increase of €6 per section

50% monthly discount applies for additional users.

Pricing indicative only. Complex solutions may entail further costs. Get in touch to request a quotation.

Does Easy-PV integrate with Midsummer?

Though existing as a separate entity, Easy-PV designs can be transferred to Midsummer Renewables by clicking Review and Order from the overview page. At the touch of a button, the Midsummer Renewables website loads in a new browser tab with the basket auto populated ready for purchase.

Are Midsummer trade discounts reflected within Easy-PV?

Easy-PV and Midsummer Renewables accounts can be linked for accurate pricing at the point of quotation. Head to the preferences section within Easy-PV and enter the email and password associated with your Midsummer account. Unless a trade link is established, Easy-PV displays retail pricing as standard.

Do you offer training sessions?

A one to one consultation is the perfect way to learn more about Midsummer and discuss your software and product needs. Busy schedule?
