Which might suit you
Framed as requirements, not a verdict. Both descriptions come from the same data.
Consider RatedPower (pvDesign) if…
- AI-assisted workflows matter to you
- you work at utility scale
For developers, IPPs, EPCs and engineering firms who need to iterate hundreds of utility-scale layouts and carry them through to interconnection and off-taker-ready detailed engineering. Not for anyone who needs a published price (all three tiers are "Talk to sales"), not for rooftop or residential, and not for buyers who need site prospecting outside the specific geographies where Enverus PRISM International data is licensed.
Full RatedPower (pvDesign) profileConsider Reslink Energy if…
- you need a price you can plan against before talking to sales
- your systems fit within 100 kW / 500 kW / 5 MW / 100 MW
- your work is mostly residential
Indian rooftop and C&I EPCs whose sales reps carry a phone rather than a laptop and who want the design, BOM and proposal produced on the roof. It is not for anyone who needs a price they can rely on before they call sales: the same site publishes four mutually incompatible price schedules, in two currencies, on two billing periods, with two different sets of plan names — and a fifth figure appears on its Capterra listing.
