Sense vs Emporia Vue Energy Monitor Comparison

This video is a detailed comparison between the Sense and Emporia Vue web apps and energy monitors. I've had a Sense since the very beginning and have always liked their app. I've frequently been disappointed by how it picks up variable speed loads, it missed my Chevy Volt for months before picking it up and then often only sensed it about half the time. It can't pick up variable speed heat pumps, which are a big part of my work. The ability to zoom in and out of timeframe on the Sense can be very useful, and it can show you voltage on the phone app (not sure if it's on the web app.) The Sense tends to come disconnected from wifi a lot. To be fair I don't have the antenna outside the box, it's a very tight squeeze in an interior wall and there weren't any open plugs. That said the Emporia does not have connectivity issues. The app itself has a lot of nice features that I like, but not enough to overcome its shortcomings and higher price. It pains me to say this. The first generation Emporia Vue wasn't quite ready for primetime, it didn't have voltage monitoring. The app was just ok. The second generation is supposed to have it, which is what's shown here, and the app is much improved, although not quite as pretty as the Sense app. Overall I like the Vue much better because it gives me much better granularity into what's going on. I can watch the heat pumps operate and understand how they are programmed. If you are considering between the two unless you have a very tight panel and/or mainly want a high level view of how your home is using energy, I'd suggest the Emporia Vue.
