Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Generac Go at 100% against SolarEdge Go's 15%. Generac Go also leads on rating (5.0 vs 2.1). SolarEdge Go's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 6 months) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
