        In the last year and a half that we have been a Solargraf user, the product has made tremendous gains in terms of added functionality. Since we offer only Enphase products to our customers, we love the way that Solargraf supports a pure Enphase environment.

        Pros:
        Product covers full life cycle of the project, from Proposal creation thru the design and permitting.
        Cons:
        We use the information in Solargraf for post installation customer support. When multiple options were presented to homeowner, Solargraf does not provide a way for us to persist which option the homeowner selected. Note: We prefer not to remove the non-selected options as this provides historical context into what was selected as well as what was provided as an option that was not selected.

        Pros:
        It can work some times. When it does, it is relatively simple to use. I think beginner designers in highly populated areas could use it.
        Cons:
        This is the most frustrating software I've ever used. Any properties missing their data, the 3D modeling tool gets easily confused and creates monstrosities of designs. A huge bear to get to work accurately unless designing simple homes in well documented areas. New construction? Good luck!

        Reasons for switching to Solargraf

        I had to switch softwares when I took a position at a new company.

        I've been using Solargraf since 2018. I'm delighted with it, and I appreciate how quick the customer service is when there is an issue. I also appreciate how Solargraf is open to feedback and quick to make changes. Back in 2019, my team recommended showing different solar design options. Solargraf then made that feature available a few months later! Keep up the good work!

        Good. I would like to be able to add objects to a drawing like making a call out text box to show where the power meter is or where I want a sub panel to be installed. Adding something like that to a design before a customer signs the contract assures that we are all on the same page.

        Pros:
        It is easy to make and send proposals to homeowners. The proposals look nice. I genuinely enjoy using Solargraf.
        Cons:
        HOWEVER the shading software is absolute garbage. It is entirely inaccurate. Solargraf continually passes blame to PV Watts who they get outdated and inaccurate production values from. There is no feature to customize shading/production to each individual site. All you get is a stupid % field where you enter in the "shading percentage" whatever that is. It is subject to user error. "25% shading" can mean a million different things between different users. Yeah they have an option where you can "order a shade report" but it's yet another cop out. Our team uses Solargraf for proposals and then literally has to use Aurora and Helioscope to confirm the production because we just cant rely on Solargraf's production software (or lack thereof). Solargraf--invest in your customers and put together the shading and production software that they actually deserve. Make it so we can show shade from specific trees.

        There are so many better products out there and especially when it comes to engineering. They cannot figure out how to design a Solar Ark hybrid inverter with battery back up. It should be simple but 4 revisions later they still have gotten it wrong. I cancelled my service today and am regretting not doing it 6 months ago. Do yourself and your company a favor and stay clear of this flawed and antiquated company.
