Pylon offers an easy-to-use design software that enables you to generate precise proposals in under two minutes from virtually anywhere. As a unique feature, Pylon allows users to access high-resolution imagery directly within the application. The software also includes an award-winning 3D Solar Shading toolkit, which assists in identifying and monitoring shading effects throughout the seasons. With Pylon's load profile analysis and interval data analysis, your team can gain valuable insights into customer consumption trends. By examining load profiles and interval data, you can make more informed decisions. The use of interactive Web and PDF proposals, along with native eSignatures, can significantly enhance your ability to finalize solar proposals. Additionally, Pylon provides a fully integrated solar Customer Relationship Management (CRM) system that seamlessly works with its design software to streamline the proposal conversion process. The Pylon Solar CRM includes features such as two-way SMS and email communication, team and lead management, as well as ready-made deal pipelines to optimize your workflow. This comprehensive solution ensures that your team can collaborate effectively while maximizing opportunities in the solar industry.

Altium Develop brings together engineers, developers, and manufacturing partners in a single connected workspace. By integrating design tools with real-time collaboration, it ensures that every stakeholder—from hardware and software teams to supply chain managers—can contribute at the right moment. The platform eliminates silos by linking requirements, component data, and production insights directly to the design process. With early visibility and seamless feedback loops, organizations can reduce errors, cut rework costs, and move from idea to finished product more efficiently.

JTAG Maps™, a user-friendly extension for Altium, enables engineers to efficiently evaluate the testing capabilities offered by JTAG devices integrated into their designs. Previously, engineers dedicated significant time to manually marking boundary-scan nets within a design to assess their coverage. The boundary scan device model files, known as BSDLs, play an essential role in the JTAG and boundary scanning process by specifying which pins can be manipulated through JTAG. JTAG Maps supports BSDL models and includes an option to 'assume scanner covered.' While many users may opt for the Altium coverage report provided by JTAG Maps, there is also an option to import a more comprehensive analysis. Additionally, data can be exported to JTAG ProVision for in-depth evaluation, allowing engineers to gain further insights. Subsequently, a straightforward message file that encompasses complete fault-coverage details can be re-imported into JTAG Maps for visualization and highlighting purposes. This streamlined process significantly reduces the time engineers need to spend on testing assessments.
