👋 We’re excited to announce the latest update to Hero, Demand IQ’s solar canvassing app designed to be the ultimate sidekick for solar sales reps. Hero’s new features will help better integrate your outside sales operation with your existing workflows. Here’s what to expect from our latest update:

1. CRM Two-Way Communication

Hero now supports two-way communication with external systems, making it easy to push leads and other information to CRMs, software, or messaging platforms like Slack.

2. Updated Dispositions, System Events & Disposition-Based Pins

Updated disposition coloring, naming, and order make it easier to organize and manage your leads so that you can quickly identify key information.

3. Activity Feed Updates

The activity feed header now shows the total number of prospects in the system. Also, you can now filter the activity feed by color-coded dispositions to easily manage leads and track activity. 

4. Map Updates

View a home’s disposition at a glance with updated map pins that use icons to represent dispositions. The lead profile preview card has also been redesigned with a notes preview and an updated action bar.

5. Lead Profile Update

The default profile view has been refined, and an action bar has been added to the footer of the lead profile. We have also added sections for notes. The “Edit address” and “Edit contact details” buttons have been moved to the overflow menu.

6. Notes

You can now keep better tabs on your leads by adding a note to their profile. And yes, notes accompany lead data when it's sent to your CRM.

7. Solar Report Update

You can now tap to zoom into the maps on the solar report. We’ve also added a shade legend to the Google Sunroof image, making it easier for you to explain to homeowners how the Google Sunroof shade analysis works.

8. Settings Update

Settings navigation now includes the Meetings URL option as a top-level menu item.

We hope you enjoy the new and improved Hero! Please feel free to reach out to your account manager with any questions about these updates. 

Hero is getting some HUGE upgrades to help you take your canvassing game to the next level!

1. Cloud data storage

• Moving Hero’s data to the cloud allows you to access your account’s data and settings across multiple devices. This enables roll-up reporting for teams in a future release. 
• ❗Heads up: The previous version of Hero stored data locally on your device, so when you update the app to the new cloud-based version, all existing data and settings will be reset. You will need to re-enter your calculator settings after this update. 

2. Activity feed

• Easily track lead status and activity in one place with advanced sorting and filtering. 

3. Disposition tracking

• Manually set a disposition for each lead. Search and filter leads by disposition.

4. Set appointments

• Keep the conversation going by setting appointments with Hero’s calendar integration.

5. Improved map functionality and navigation

• Refined look and functionality of map user interface. Preview a lead profile from the map by selecting a pin.

6. General user interface and experience improvements

Update now for the latest and greatest version of the Hero beta! And as always, if you have any suggestions for improvements, please let us know!
