We interviewed 3 companies, we chose Real Goods Solar because they were on Angie's List and they came highly recommended. They also offered a time frame that we wanted and that was o be done in a 90 day time frame. What happened was it ended up being 6 months so that was just kind of a big issue. The product on our roof is good and we're happy with it so far but the whole installation process was really, really hard. I advise to get the time frame in writing.
