Thank you very much for your review! We are glad that you find RatedPower to be a simple and fast tool for sizing PV plants (you can also use it for designing BESS and hybrid PV + BESS plants).

We recently launched Layout Editor (https://ratedpower.com/platform/editor/) which allows you to edit and customize the layouts of the parametric design.

Again, many thanks for your trust in RatedPower and Enverus.

"Useful for university work"
4.5/5
What do you like best about RatedPower?

For me, the PVDesign program is quite helpful when it comes to seeing how a solar plant can work and how to size it. When doing projects at the university, it is easier to see than simply doing calculations by hand. Additionally, its integrated functions that can automatically choose the best configuration on the terrain are the best. Not having to check every detail makes it more interesting than some programs that only create the solar plant as you indicate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about RatedPower?

It's a bit confusing if you try to start the software on your own. It would be good to have some kind of automated chat to ask questions or standardized guides to have a quicker start. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about RatedPower?

The software is still in development of its features, whose use is currently extremely limited, while the demands of engineering design are much more complex. I believe it will soon be a strong competitor! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Satisfied with the details and liberty of configurations"
4/5
What do you like best about RatedPower?

I like the facility it provides for uploading data sheets and models of panels, inverters... So I can work easily with a great variety of them, making my custormers satisfied. Also the interactive map showing where or where not I can install the panels, grouped by strings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about RatedPower?

I dont really like the team-work facility, the fact that if im modifing a project and my partner cant work on the same version doesn´t convince me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Too "technical" for a non technical personnel, too few "technical" for a technically skilled worker"
2.5/5
What do you like best about RatedPower?

It is quick for low level site assesments Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about RatedPower?

It is under constant development, but only scratching the surface. Over-ambitious but never reaching a clear goal.

The real focus of the company is sales (which are really good at it). However, other products availalbe are much better in performance and, especially, price-wise. Rated Power is bloody expensive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
