OpenSolar offers a “zero-cost” sales platform backed by 150+ partners — but it comes with limited control, reliance on funding networks, and UI disruptions. Arka360 empowers you to run design-to-permit workflows without external dependencies, UI shifts, or feature caps.
OpenSolar positions itself as a free, fast-moving ecosystem — popular for early-stage or budget-conscious installers. But its sustainability and flexibility are tied to its partner ecosystem.
In contrast, Arka360 is a purpose-built SaaS platform that prioritizes ownership, reliability, and scale. From AI modeling and battery sizing to expert services and regional permitting support, Arka360 offers serious power for serious solar teams.
