David Traub Bethesda, MD

Solar SME has been a great partner to work on with this project - they're super prompt with getting back to you and very in the loop as far as where you stand with getting financing. The option they offered completely fit our goals at the outset. Updated after project completion: Installation was great. There were some minor logistical difficulties, related to FedEx only delivering to curbside and our residence being a townhouse. Even that though got resolved quickly by Solar SME sending the panel installers to put the panels up. There was a bit of a delay between panel and electrical work BUT I 100% accept that and I appreciate that the delay was caused by Solar SMEs dedication to both quality installation work AND crew safety. Rushing a project like this isn't good for either of those things. I am 100% happy with the production levels we're getting. Our usual electric bill of close to 100 was 7.14 this month. We were able to run our AC without importing grid energy while doing so. I have no reservations about highly recommending Solar SME.

Solar SME delivered what they said they would. Had to overcome some local coding obstacles when coming to a new area for the first time, but they persevered and built us a wonderful ground mounted solar array that is working better than advertised. I highly recommend Solar SME.

Cutting to the chase, my design planning and installation were hands down the best experience I could ask for. Brian my project manager kept me up to date on what was going on, he took care of all the paperwork, and even was able to move my install date up 2-3 weeks. The installation guys, lead by Frank, were amazing, and very professional. I would most definitely recommend Solar SME. The price was good with the panels and battery that I wanted. There were some hiccups on the connection side which was easily fixed by the SolarSME electrician by calling my battery's company. Our local power company came over for final inspection and even he was impressed with Frank's work, and that was very reassuring to us.

This review is for the initial experience of the quoting/proposal stage. We just signed the contract and are starting the process. So far so good. Solar SME’s initial proposal was sound and their response to my initial modification request was quick and accurate. Their combination of equipment, guarantee and price one the day. They weren’t the absolute cheapest but the combination of factors provided the best overall. Ray Conner (my consultant) was quick and concise. Not too much fluff or pressure.

I was quoted by SolarSME and ended up taking their bid. Michael was my POC for the project and was there every step of the way if I had questions or concerns. The install, or lag time between signing paperwork and getting everything turned on took longer than I expected but it was still completed and as quoted. In fact it was a little cheaper so I am happy. I would recommend this company to anyone looking for solar panels.

I have an overall great experience. The financing rate in the industry was definitely hard to beat! I had a small issue and it was resolved very quickly! The panels are very sleek, all black, and came with some housing to give it a great design! It took a day, but I didn't need many panels!

Bhaven Shah Bensalem, PA

We wanted to install solar panels for a number of years but each time we reached out to solar installers, it was always a typical sales pitch. Having about 8-10 quotes with a significantly wide range of quotes only made the matter worse until I was approached by Solar SME. Omar was the very first person I spoke with at Solar SME. Not only Omar worked with me to explain the whole installation process but went above and beyond to make sure I was completely satisfied with every question he answered. Additionally, he was very patient while offering me various quotes with various brands of solar panels. Once we finalized the panels, the project manager, Henry, was just as kind and patient during the entire installation process. Henry was literally just a call away each time I had a question or needed a project status update. He has patiently worked with me and at times it appeared that he even responded to my queries during his time off. On the day of the installation, the installation team was right on time and completed the installation without us realizing it. The entire installation team was true professionals. They completed the installation in about 5 hours and left the premises completely clean. I want to thank the entire Solar SME team for staying on top of the project, updating with correct information, and completing the project in a timely manner. I will be sure to recommend you to everyone I know.

Looking into solar was new for us, and Omar A immediately reached out and helped answer all questions as well suggestions.

We are so glad we decided on Solar SME. No one could beat their prices and Rick H. was great to deal with. He was able to complete a 3 month project in 2 months and the actual install was only one day. He went above our expectations for this project. He kept us up to date on all steps of the project. Walked us through parts we did not understand. He more or less held our hand through the entire process. We cannot say enough about his professional and exceptional service.

I had a pretty large system installed (15kw with an LG battery) and started the process in December. SME was working with my city (Suffolk, VA) through the pandemic, so it took a long time for Suffolk to finish the permit, but SME was on top of it the entire time. Everyone was very professional and friendly, and the company was always responsive to emails and calls. My project manager was Sam, and the installers were Jesse and Ausif. They all did a great job. Another thing I really liked is that they were willing to install the size of system I wanted, as opposed to the solar power installers we have around here who wanted to convince you that a smaller system for more money was the way to go. To keep it in perspective, I was able to put a 15KW system on my house with the LG 9.8KW-hr battery system in place for less than Power Solar or Ion were charging for a 10-kw system. One thing I will say for solar in general-it's going to take some time, and that isn't the installers fault. You need to get approved by the city, you have to get approved by the utility-lot of stuff going on. But SME was great-powered right on through everything, and my system is doing very well. 0800 and I am already above 2 KW! Woo-hoo! Peaks at around 14 because of the layout of my roofspace. (I got the panasonic 330watt panels.Those bad boys are amazing!)

I sought quotes from multiple installers for a PV system and got a very strong quote from Solar SME from the onset with the highest quality solar panels, micro-inverters, racking system and service. I worked with Alex who was very prompt, attentive, patient and accommodating in every aspect of our interactions. I sent Alex questions via email several times a week and he was always prompt with his responses and extremely helpful. Most of all he was very respectful and allowed ample time for me to make a decision. Alex offered the very best customer service possible and deserves to be commended. Kudos!

I appreciate that Xavier L was knowledgable and took the time to inform me about solar in general, and about my specific needs. He was patient as we looked for finance solutions and attempted to find a lender that made sense for my budget. I was impressed by the company and him and his willingness to be honest about the size of the system that he designed for me and not simply placing the largest system because it could result in a higher price tag for me and larger commission for him. He designed a system that met my needs and allows me to participate in net metering with my power company.

VAMSI KRISHNA ARAVELLY Ellicott City, MD

Honest Sales pitch and no upselling and Best competitive pricing in the market by Xavier L. I started my solar project research in early april 2021 on energy sage but was not able to discuss my project with any of the installers until end of April.Once i was ready Xavier L. got in touch with me and explained me the different aspects of Solar panels and only showed me the best panels for my house which have the best generation. The Quotes i have received from him unlike others i shopped around are not bloated and not crazy high priced either. I got the quotes for Panasonic and REC panels with the best efficient and lowest downgrade in the market. He was even ready to price match and tried his best to beat the best quote i received aswell. I learnt more from his sales pitch about the panels than i would probably wouldnt have on my own. There is a premium for the best efficiency panels or REC or Panasonic vs Q Cell or Silfab but it might be worth it depending on the roof size and lesser panels it can accomodate for your current needs if you need to add more panels in future when your consumption increases. I ultimately ended up working with another provided who were covering my panels, inverters and labor for 30 years vs Solar SME which was covering for 25 years for the same cost. Would definitely recommend him for anyone exploring solar panels for their roof.

I would actually rate this company 4.5 stars out of 5; however, BBB rating system doesn't allow for half stars. They were very attentive throughout the entire process, from negotiating terms of the contract through to final completion. I felt I could always call my representative and he would find out the answer to my questions or update me on where we were along the way. In fact, I rarely needed to reach out because my rep was in constant contact with me. The reason for deducting a star (or .5 of a star, again, if it were possible) is because I felt a little more could have been done to go over the aesthetics and installation of our solar project. First was running conduit on top of the roof to connect the solar arrays, instead of running wires through attic, while easier to install it requires more holes drilled in the roof, to anchor the conduit, and increases the probability of water ingress in future. I was explained the technique they use to prevent leaks and was assured that will not be an issue. Second was the color of racking system to blend a bit better with our roof. That extra attention to detail and they would be 5 stars! Overall, I would recommend Solar SME to my friends and family if they were installing solar. I'm extremely picky about the contractors I hire and I would say they met and even exceeded my overall expectations.

Solar SME has been great to work with so far. I have compared their quotes to 4 different other companies and found them to be the best combination of fair prices, high quality equipment, and good customer service. Other companies had to trade off prices or quality too quickly to meet the expectations we had for our home solar system. Thanks SME Solar! Ray, our sales rep was very helpful, and adjusted our initial plan a few times to get things just right. - I hope to update after our install is completed!and after the panels have had some time to work.

Solar SME is a great company to work with. Zack M. (sale representative) worked really hard to give me the best price possible. He was very informative and willing to address all my concerns. Trust me I had many! Michael L. was my Project Manager. Extremely knowledgeable individual. He always made himself available to answer my questions. We worked with a very tight timeline to complete the project and he was able to do it way ahead of schedule. I am very satisfied with my experience with Solar SME!!!

SME was the fastest response time of quotes from multiple companies, but best of all was the customer service experience! Shane with SME made the experience painless, in that he was able to concisely explain the entire process in a clear and comprehensive manner to a person less informed on the solar industry. He did so we a previously unseen patience and professionalism. Shane is what made the experience a 5 star experience!

Ultimately I did not choose to go with SolarSME for my solar needs but it was not because of anything they did as a company. It was just a personal decision to take a different route and pursue my project as a DIY’er. I was very impressed with the communication from my Salesman - Omar. I work a very busy schedule and am usually unable to communicate effectively at normal hours of operation. Omar was understanding and did everything in his power to make sure we communicated effectively and my questions were answered along the way.

Omar A. was the best! He really provided answers to all the questions I had ongoing on solar. Continued to follow up and clarify how each component and value it brings overtime. I was unable to move forward with the project due to other reasons, but I would be recommending Omar to all those who need to go solar.

I was incredibly happy with the consultation process that Solar SME presented me and my family with. All of my questions were addressed thoroughly and the representative, Mike, was very knowledgeable and pleasant to talk with. We didn’t end up deciding on solar just yet but Solar SME offered a unique and incredibly appealing solution!

I bet much appreciate the job Mike did pulling together the right size system at the right price for us. I do wish that I could have been placed with a customer service person that spoke better English. This is probably my fault because I know that he is trying very hard to speak the best English but I just can't understand him. I asked that he communicate with me only in writing, which he is, and that helps.

Andrew Rich Kill Devil Hills, NC

I am writing this review to inform others who are investigating a solar panel purchase to strongly consider using Solar SME. From start to finish, the company provided great support to my wife and I. A shout-out to Kevin W who was our Project Manager. He walked us through the entire process, effectively communicated continuously including product shipping updates, installation team engagement, permitting, utility company coordination, and financial. Even though everything did not go as planned including dealing with a customer (me) who requires frequent communication, Kevin and his team worked hard to make sure that the final product met if not exceeded our expectations. 5 Stars!

Zack M has been a persistent, and professional provider of every detail (and then some) I have asked for during this process. He has answered all my technical questions on the panels and installation specifics, and also my wife's questions about financinig, asthetics, and warranties. He has been patient with mine and my wife's schedule to schedule phone calls and Zoom meetings, even with re-schedule requests. He would be the first person I turn to at SME and I hope is representative of the quality person SME employs. I hope to be a customer of SME as soon as I can work out the financing on my end.

I liked that I was able to get a valid proposal of work without needing to have on-site visit (during covid). Alex was helpful and made himself available whenever was convenient and gave me much more insight into the available and recommended products. Unfortunately, this was not a good time for me to move forward with the solar but thank you!

We are glad that we were able to get in touch with Zac at Solar SME, in our pursuit of Solar Panel installation. Zac has been very patient in answering all our questions and concerns. He is very meticulous in communicating all of the information that is necessary to make an informed and calculated decision going for solar panels. As we are planning to purchase Electric cars next year, we are definite to approach Zac at SME Solar next year to expand our solar installation, since we foresee higher consumption of electricity.

My overall experience was very satisfied. They were very helpful with choosing a system that was within my budget yet satisfied my power demand. The whole process was extremely smooth and easy. I was able to do it all from my phone. They do all the work for you from filing the right permits to figuring out if you have any trees to trim for best lighting. The instillation crew I cant say enough good things about them. They were extremely polite, very knowledgeable, great workmanship, extremely fast.

Process was very smooth, communication was on point. Product works as advertised and it is good value for money at that time. Solar is like buying a HDTV, wait a year and prices are cheaper so nothing they can do but it was great value for money then. I wish they had given be a drone video of the installed product because I have no idea how it looks like on the roof.

Carlos Galvan Andrews, TX

Writing reviews is not something that I do, but I felt compelled to do so based on my experience with Solar SME, Specifically Alex and Omar, my energy consultants. As someone that did not have any knowledge of Solar, I had a number of questions and concerns. From day one, Alex and Omar, answered all of my questions in great detail. They showed me every available option that would be best for my home and my finances. They completed a tremendous amount of research on my behalf to address my concerns. They were very responsive and were willing and able to communicate with me at any time. Their straightforward, knowledgeable, and honest approach was very refreshing considering my experience with some other Solar companies was not very pleasant. Although I did not move forward with my project, I want to commend Alex and Omar on their efforts. They could not have done anything more to help me or convince me to purchase with Solar SME. I would definitely recommend giving them the opportunity to earn your business. C. Galvan Texas
