Ratings and reviews

The app is great, but the browser version is even better. The next big goal should be to app-ify the interface so all the killer features and functions (serial number replacement, data analysis display, etcetera) can run on a mobile device. If service people like myself don't have to bust out a laptop on a shadeless, wifiless roof in July, well, that would sure be swell. Overall, good work. (So much better than Sunpower and SMA it's almost embarrassing.)

It's colorful and cute, but doesn't show power by inverter or state of charge by battery. So if you have multiple, you're not sure about what's going on. It also only shows one site, so if you have multiple systems for multiple homes you have to pick your favorite and look at only that one via the mobile app.

Extremely limited details - I can't find any way to view system output levels at individual string or actual panel-by-panel level like most of the other systems I looked at buying. And that's even with the Power Optimizers on each panel which I paid extra for. This prevents me from doing any troubleshooting Plus every time I log on I am asked to install some newer version, even though I have done so previously. It's 2022 and these simple features should be installed.
