Proposal turnaround
PVcase: 30–90 min
SolvSolar: 45 seconds, end to end
India regulatory fit
PVcase: Limited / US-only
SolvSolar: Global DISCOM & net-metering rulesets
SolvSolar differs from PVcase because PVcase charges Enterprise quote (Enterprise contract, typically ₹5,00,000+ a year, plus an AutoCAD licence), while SolvSolar charges ₹0 per seat, ₹10 per kW designed — first 100 kW free with no per-seat licence. The second measurable difference is turnaround: PVcase typically needs 30–90 min to produce a proposal, against 45 seconds, end to end on SolvSolar. On India-specific compliance, PVcase provides Limited / US-only, whereas SolvSolar provides Global DISCOM & net-metering rulesets.

5 concrete differences between SolvSolar and PVcase
- PVcase runs inside AutoCAD, so you pay for AutoCAD as well; SolvSolar runs in a browser with no additional licence.
- PVcase is built for terrain-following ground-mount at utility scale; SolvSolar covers rooftop, ground-mount and hybrid systems from 3 kW upwards.
- A PVcase layout takes 30–90 minutes; a SolvSolar proposal takes about 45 seconds.
- PVcase produces engineering drawings, not a customer proposal; SolvSolar produces a four-page branded PDF with subsidy, payback and signature blocks.
- SolvSolar is ₹0 per seat, pay ₹10 per kW designed; PVcase is a ₹5 lakh-class annual enterprise contract.
SolvSolar vs PVcase: which is better for Indian installers?
SolvSolar vs PVcase: which is better for Indian installers? PVcase is a specialist ground-mount engineering tool and it is very good at terrain-aware utility layouts inside AutoCAD. That specialisation is also its limit for most Indian installers: you need an AutoCAD seat on top of a five-lakh-class contract, each layout takes 30–90 minutes, and what comes out is a drawing rather than something a homeowner or factory owner will sign. SolvSolar covers rooftop, ground-mount and hybrid from 3 kW, computes PM Surya Ghar and DISCOM handling, and ships a signable four-page proposal in 45 seconds at ₹0 per seat. Keep PVcase if you build utility parks; use SolvSolar for the commercial pipeline.
