Solar Power is an application which allows users to manage the solar power system installed at their location and also get the required support from the service provider. This application gives more information on how much power has been generated and utilized through solar system and how much is utilized from the conventional power from time to time. SMAC IT has developed this platform in collaboration with client to provide more advanced features in the application which helps to reduce the time to serve the customers. We have developed separate apps for the customer services and field technicians to handle the service tickets even though
