Approach Comparison
AMMP vs In-House Systems
Building your own monitoring platform? Compare the true cost and effort of in-house development versus a purpose-built solution.
Overview
Building an in-house monitoring system seems attractive—full control, custom features, no vendor dependencies. But the reality often includes months of development, ongoing maintenance burden, and hidden costs that compound over time.
AMMP gives you the power of a custom-built platform without the overhead. Our team has already solved the hard problems—device integration, data reliability, scalable infrastructure—so you can focus on what matters: operating your solar assets.
The Hidden Costs of In-House
- •Development time: 6-12 months before first production deployment
- •Device integrations: Each new inverter brand requires weeks of protocol work
- •Ongoing maintenance: Security patches, bug fixes, infrastructure costs
- •Key person risk: What happens when your developer leaves?
