✦ Strategic Success Analysis

The SolarGenix Moat
Choose SolarGenix over Aurora Solar if your bottleneck is Design Speed. While Aurora remains the gold standard for high-complexity manual engineering, SolarGenix is the winner for high-velocity residential teams who need to move from 'Lead' to 'Permit' in the same day.
The Enphase Enlighten Moat
Choose Enphase over string-based monitoring if your bottleneck is microinverter-level resilience and granular fleet health rather than basic inverter status.

Operational Friction: Switching from SolarGenix to Enphase Enlighten requires adjusting CAD-level shading accuracy tolerances and recalibrating NBT ROI modeling for NEM 3.0 compliance.
