Ratings and reviews

Very flaky, Have tried to use this to control battery charging from the grid (Time dependant control) e.g. on or off as our needs change. Some days it works other days not. Given up and just use the web interface, as the app it too hit and miss.

I'll be the first to review this app! It works in a bare basic sense. Does the job, but nothing more. I really think it should be folded into the solar.web app so that the extensibility of this app is combined with the other. I prefer the live energy diagram of this app to the solar.web one, so Feronius, please use this one in your products. Menu navigation is sub-optimal with having to use the back arrow to return to menus. Some work needs to be done to explain battery Time Dependent Controls.

I'm a COMPUTER TECHNICIAN working daily in IT & I can attest that this app is really poor and it was very convoluted to set up my inverter - took me hours and several attempts - it's anything but straight forward. Not at all impressed when the cost of the inverted is considered. You chose the wrong app developers and it's messy! Also, no way is it reasonable to expect users to fork out monthly amounts to become 'premium' users!!! Based on this alone I will not recommend Fronius based products to anyone as it is far from streamlined or general user focused. Reviews lime this should not need to be written but it's clear that you either don't care or still haven't got the message.
