I am very pleased with the solar results I am getting, used to how it all works very interesting
I purchased my house with the solar panel, I have been calling Enphase for about 3 years to get the system going. They would walk me through the process to troubleshoot the system but I never get credited for the energy produced. Since the system kept failing I asked them to send a technician, it’s been months, Enphase would say called the installer, the installer would respond to call Enphase then Enphase said call Xcel Energy. They are saying now that they don’t send technician onsite, when I insisted they said that I have to pay because my warranty expired just a month ago (they never said that before and I never got the information about the warranty) This is a scam! Don’t fall for the so called solar panel system benefits. Now, this system is on my roof doing nothing. After paying off the system, Enphase said: if you don’t want to use the system anymore just call your installer. This is ridiculous!
We’re truly sorry for the experience you’ve had—this is not the level of support we aim to provide, and we completely understand how discouraging it must feel after trying for so long to get your system working. To make sure this is handled with the urgency it deserves, we’ve created a dedicated support case (19650700) just for you. Our team genuinely wants to help get to the bottom of what’s been happening, clarify the warranty situation, and guide you toward a clear resolution. Please reach out to us at [email protected] with your site details, suitable time for callback and include the subject line: "Case number 19650700 – Attn: ORM Team". We’ll prioritize your case and work closely with you to get your system back up and running.
The salesperson said I would reduce my electricity bills to almost nothing and eliminate power outages. The system has been installed for a year. In a power outage at night, my batteries are depleted in a few hours and I still spend over $600/mo on electricity plus over $500/mo on the system. This is not what I was told to expect.
We understand how concerning it can be to manage both a high utility bill and a system payment, particularly when you were expecting minimal bills and reliable outage protection. In most installations, batteries are designed to support essential loads for a defined duration, especially overnight when solar production is unavailable. If higher-demand appliances are included in backup or overall household consumption is elevated, the batteries may discharge within a few hours and grid usage may remain higher than anticipated. Bill savings and backup performance depend heavily on system sizing, household usage patterns, and battery configuration, so a detailed review of your specific setup will help determine what may be occurring. To assist you further, we have created support case 19472675 on your behalf. Please contact our support team at [email protected] with your site details and include the subject line: Case number 19472675 – Attn: ORM Team. This will allow us to prioritize your request and provide focused assistance as quickly as possible.
IOS (older and newest) app not working. Also cannot logon using website from desktop. Everyone replies with the same response, "try again in 30/45 min, 24 hrs, etc". RIDICULOUS!! Update 1/11, called tech support and once again asking me to repeat steps already done. I'm not sure if they're working off a flow chart or what, but sheesh!!
We’re very sorry to hear about your experience. We completely understand how frustrating it is to be unable to access both the iOS app and the website, and we recognize that repeated suggestions to wait and try again do not resolve the situation. This is certainly not the experience we want for our customers or the level of support we strive to provide. When both app and web login are affected, it can sometimes be related to account authentication settings, password sync issues, or temporary service disruptions. That said, we would like to review your case in detail and work toward a resolution as quickly as possible.

Software update for IQ has been running for or ten hours. Started with wifi password change said need to update IQ software. Had an issue before with another problem. Could get no help. Said I need new equipment. Over a year later software update fixed it. See what they tell me this time. Did have some stuff replaced under warranty years ago. That went so smooth.
I recently had to go through teh customer service phone number to fix an issue with my app not displaying any data since a heavy snowstorm. The customer service rep helped me in a very patient and detailed way. The issue was a bit complicated, but I didn't lose the connection or was transferred to another department.
crappy crappy customer service, dominated by AI and DIY. My solar has not been communicating with inverters for over two weeks already, and whenever I try to get help, I'm referred to a selection of self-help topics on a webpage. I don't know enough to choose the correct self help. I try to call and get disconnected. Thanks for nothing. I'm almost 50K in the hole for this system and it isn't working. Update: after being put on hold for long periods then disconnected, and not being able to reach anyone or get a call-back during the day, I called in the middle of the night. I was finally was connected with a technician who helped me sort out the problem and confirm that my system was again communicating. It is still subpar that one has to call at midnight, but at least there's help 24-7.
I purchased my Enphase system about a year ago. Already, the T10 battery is no longer compatible with the current IQ Battery 5P. My system is effectively outdated and no longer expandable after just one year. For a supposedly modular and future-proof premium system, this is simply unacceptable. I chose Enphase because they promised an intelligent, automated all-in-one system. What I got instead is a closed system that I mostly have to manually control and that is deliberately locked off from third-party platforms like Home Assistant. The advertised AI mode barely works. It has been in beta for over a year with no noticeable improvements. Dynamic energy tariffs, intelligent charging of the battery or EV are unreliable or don’t work at all. In the end, it’s manual control instead of automation. The IQ EV Charger 2 is particularly frustrating: According to the technical specs, it supports OCPP 2.0.1, but for regular customers this feature is not enabled. This is misleading and feels like pure marketing without real benefit. The support makes things worse. Despite countless calls and emails, there are no real solutions. Most of the time, you’re just referred to your installer, or you get standard replies like: “Please restart the entire system” “Thank you for your patience” Problems are not solved—they’re ignored. Lots of marketing, little functionality. Customer satisfaction clearly does not seem to matter. Like many investor-focused companies, Enphase seems to prioritize short-term profit over long-term customer care. As a customer, you are left on your own: expensive hardware, empty promises, a closed system, and support without accountability. Conclusion: Extremely frustrating for existing customers. If you value future-proofing, real automation, open interfaces, or dynamic tariffs, think twice before choosing Enphase. Currently: not recommended.
Relatively good, but ... - overall expensive - excessive enphase server downtime - installers are not competent enough - system requires additional equipment to be autonomous (batteries don't deliver if grid is down!!, somewhat ridiculous because that's the whole purpose of having batteries, no ?) P.S. After reading the producer's comment, I wrote to the indicated email address, added my SITE ID information, and now, a week later, I have not received ANY reaction from the manufacturer, although I must say that Enphase Netherlands, who are much more efficient, reactive, and customer friendly that the US side, had swiftly reacted to another mail I had sent to them. All in all, work with the Dutch if you absolutely want to use this system.
We’re glad to hear there were aspects of the system you found positive, and we sincerely regret the challenges you’ve encountered. At Enphase, our goal is to deliver long-term value through reliability, safety, and high performance. We’re continuously working to improve platform uptime, enhance installer training and certification, and ensure system requirements and capabilities are communicated as clearly as possible. Regarding battery operation during grid outages, Enphase systems are designed to meet specific safety and regulatory standards. Depending on the region and system design, additional components—such as a System Controller or specific backup configurations—may be required to enable off-grid or backup functionality. We understand this can be confusing, and we want to help clarify how this applies to your setup. We’d really appreciate the opportunity to review your system, understand what may be missing, and help ensure it operates as you expected. Please reach out to us at [email protected] and include your site ID so our team can assist you further.
I have had the app since June and overall I am happy with the dashboard and the information I have at my fingertips. The app has worked seamlessly once I got it working. The installation and account setup was a bit of a headache.
I have been very happy with the performance of my Enphase solar panel and battery system. The monthly report showing solar panel generation and the effect it has on grid reliance is useful. On the two occasions that I have experienced minor issues with the system I have received excellent support from tech advisors who have been knowledgeable and friendly.
I had to change my router and my system needed to reconnected to the gateway. After unsuccessfully trying myself for some period of time I got connected to the help desk. To my surprise this person was actually helpful and was able to guide me through the steps to reconnect. I am sure most people are familiar with the Unhelpful desk, this one was, and did help me.
I was sold 32 solar panels with no battery pack. If my power goes out I only have power if the sun comes out and charges the panels. I owe for 30 years on this system that doesn't help much. The microinverter stops often.
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We’re sorry to hear about your frustration and appreciate the opportunity to clarify. Based on your description, your system appears to be configured as a sunlight backup system. With this type of setup, power is available only when there is sufficient sunlight during a grid outage. Without a battery, the system cannot store energy for use at night or during low-sun conditions, which can understandably feel limiting if those expectations were not clearly explained at the time of sale. Regarding the microinverters, they are designed to stop producing power when grid conditions are unsafe or when there is insufficient sunlight, as part of built-in safety and protection features. If you are seeing frequent interruptions outside of these scenarios, we would like to review this further to ensure everything is operating as intended. We strongly recommend reaching out to us so we can review your system details, clarify its capabilities, and address any performance concerns. Please contact our support team at [email protected], and we’ll be happy to assist you. Your feedback is important to us, and we’re committed to helping you get the best possible experience from your Enphase system.
Our Emphase Enlighten App showed a problem with the system. After trying to rectify it as suggested in the App I was then advised to ring for support. I was carefully shown how to navigate the system to reboot it including use of video control. The service people were excellent. Repeating when asked & taking me through what was for me a complicated problem of technology! All working now. Thanks to their excellent service.
I had a great experience with Priya from Enphase Energy when updating my gateway to a new SSID network. She was personable, knowledgeable, and explained everything clearly, which made the process stress‑free. Her calm and professional guidance put me at ease, and I truly appreciated her patience and expertise. This kind of support shows Enphase’s commitment to its customers—I couldn’t have asked for better service.
Absolute joke of a company. The hardware is OK, but their app regularly fails. You regularly cannot make changes to your battery schedule. And enphase communications about issues are almost non-existent. Avoid avoid avoid.
Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We’re truly sorry for the frustration you’ve experienced, especially with the app performance and battery-schedule updates. This isn’t the experience we want for any of our customers. There was a recent issue where Charge From Grid (CFG) and Discharge to Grid (DTG) commands were slower than expected to respond. In some cases, batteries did not charge from the grid even when schedules were correctly set. This was tied to an infrastructure-related cloud problem, and while a fix was deployed, the issue has resurfaced for few sites. Our engineering teams are actively reviewing the affected systems to ensure full stabilization across all sites. We genuinely appreciate your patience and engagement while we work to address the issue. Regarding communication, whenever an outage or known issue occurs, we post an in-app banner so users are informed as soon as the incident is identified. That said, we know there’s room to improve the clarity and consistency of these updates, and your feedback is incredibly helpful in guiding those improvements.
We are using the envoy for our solar panels. Functionality is fine. But the WiFi security is very bad. It is constantly broadcasting an unsecured open WiFi network to the public. As it is also connected to our private wifi, it is a serious security flaw. I called with enphase a few months ago and they said it was a known issue… Now, few months later the same issue still exists. We are considering home batteries, not from enphase.
Enphase Energy delivers on the guarantee of quality solar energy equipment and service. I fully endorse and vouch for Enphase Energy's commitment to customer satisfaction. We are consumers of Enphase micro-inverters and solar energy and battery storage systems. Enphase Energy honors their warranties and contracts with both installers and end-users of their products as promise.
Customer Service was EXCELLENT -- Professional, Courteous, and Efficient.
Regularly having no control over the system, this costs me money when I can’t get the battery to charge from the grid during periods of cheap electricity, I have spent £12k on a sub standard system
We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused. We are currently facing an issue with this feature. However, we also request you to check if the battery has an associated schedule for the battery to charge from the grid. At least one schedule should be set for off-peak hours for this feature to be active. A schedule specifies the time periods during which the battery can draw power from the grid. Without a schedule, the system defaults to disabling grid-based charging. To configure this setting: 1. Open the Enlighten app. 2. Navigate to Menu → Settings → Battery. 3. Ensure the "Charge battery from the grid" option is enabled. 4. Tap "Add Schedule." 5. Set the Start and End Times for off-peak tariff periods. 6. Enable the option for charging up to 100% during this schedule. 7. Tap "Apply. Once this is done and the temporary issue is resolved from our end, the battery will charge from the grid during the scheduled times.
