Sitemark
Construction
Drone-based progress tracking, quality control and commissioning built specifically for solar farms

The short version
- Each has a real cost: InEight a wide set of separate modules, including Control, Contract, Estimate, Schedule, Document and Model, so a working setup means choosing several; Sitemark it only does solar, so a mixed renewables portfolio still needs a second platform for wind, storage and substations, and the consolidation argument for buying it collapses.
- They diverge on capability: InEight covers Project controls, Sitemark covers Construction progress tracking.
- Prices and features above were last checked on 1 September 2026.

InEight
- Cost control and forecasting on large capital projectsnot Sitemark
- Estimating and bid preparationnot Sitemark
- Contract and change order managementnot Sitemark
- Field progress and completions trackingnot Sitemark
- Document control across an engineering projectnot Sitemark
Sitemark
- An EPC contractor on a multi-hundred-megawatt ground-mount plant that must report weekly installed counts to a lender and cannot do it by walking the rowsnot InEight
- An asset owner accepting a plant at provisional acceptance who needs documented evidence that what was built matches the issued design before signingnot InEight
- An operations team running annual thermographic inspection across a portfolio, wanting defects mapped to module positions so a technician goes straight to the faultnot InEight
- A developer comparing defect and underperformance rates across contractors and module suppliers to inform the next procurement roundnot InEight
Where each one falls short
Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.
InEight
- A wide set of separate modules, including Control, Contract, Estimate, Schedule, Document and Model, so a working setup means choosing several
- Prices are not published; enterprise deals are custom and per-user purchasing goes through a separate portal
- Built for capital projects in construction, energy and mining rather than general project work
Sitemark
- It only does solar, so a mixed renewables portfolio still needs a second platform for wind, storage and substations, and the consolidation argument for buying it collapses.
- Pricing is quoted on site count and unpublished variables, which penalises owners of many small distributed assets relative to one operator of a single large plant with the same total capacity.
- You still need someone to fly the site, and Sitemark does not remove the drone operator cost, permits or airspace constraints; it monetises the data after the flight.
- Automated progress counting depends on a clean, current design layout, and on projects where the layout changes weekly the comparison generates false deviations that erode trust in the numbers.
- Thermographic defect detection needs the plant producing at sufficient irradiance, so inspection windows in northern latitudes are narrow and a missed window pushes findings into the next season.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages
InEight: How much does InEight cost?
InEight pricing is not published online. Enterprise pricing is determined through consultation with the sales team based on number of users, products selected, and contract length. Per-user pricing for the InEight NOW product allows monthly and annual billing options, but exact figures require contacting sales.
SourceSitemark: Is Sitemark priced per megawatt?
No. Sitemark states pricing is based on number of sites and other variables. Ask explicitly how a portfolio of small sites is treated, because per-site pricing is unkind to distributed assets.
InEight: Does InEight offer a free trial?
InEight offers modular and configurable pricing based on which products customers select. The brief mentions customers can request a demo to discuss pricing, but no specific free trial details are published.
SourceSitemark: Do we have to use Sitemark drone pilots?
No. It accepts data from third-party drone operators, which lets you keep an existing flight contractor.
Sitemark: Does it cover anything other than solar?
No. It is built specifically around solar plant structures and defect types.
Sitemark: Can we export our data?
Yes, orthomosaics, defect lists and reports export. Confirm the format and whether historical inspections remain accessible after a subscription lapses.
Sitemark: Where is the company based?
Leuven, Belgium, with customers across Europe, the Middle East, Asia and the Americas.
