Pros & Cons
Infovista
Pros
- Planet covers RF planning from 2G through 5G, with 3D ray-launching propagation and beamforming analysis.
- Planning, drive testing (TEMS) and service assurance (Ativa) come from one vendor, so the full network lifecycle is covered.
- Integrates with iBwave for combined indoor and outdoor design and with Google's propagation API.
- Large installed base of over 1,000 customers, about 400 of them mobile operators, in more than 130 countries.
Cons
- No public pricing; every product is quote-based, and a Gartner reviewer flagged high cost.
- Telecom-specific; it offers no work orders, maintenance management or general asset management.
- Very few public user reviews on sites such as Gartner Peer Insights, which makes independent evaluation hard.
- The product line has been renamed several times (Planet Cloud to VistaPlan Go, TEMS Cloud to VistaTest+), which can confuse buyers.
RatedPower
Pros
- Every plan is a single per-company subscription with unlimited users, projects, and designs, so large teams pay no per-seat costs.
- It takes a project from layout through electrical design, yield, and CAPEX to editable deliverables in a single run.
- A vendor-published Black & Veatch audit found its simplified yield model within +0.24% to +1.08% of PVsyst.
- Layouts round-trip through DWG for CAD editing, and shading data exports to PVsyst.
- It covers standalone BESS and hybrid PV plus storage dispatch, not only PV.
- G2 reviewers rate it about 4.4 out of 5 and most often praise its ease of use and the time it saves.
Cons
- No list prices are published, and contracts are typically multi-year.
- Standard support is email-only, with responses of up to 48 working hours.
- It is not suited to rooftop, commercial, or residential solar design.
- G2 reviewers cite layout issues and missing features as their most common complaints.
- Many users still need PVsyst for the bankable P50/P90 reports lenders request.
