Just speaking from experience (leveled several necros and enchanters to various levels, both classes to 60 at least once).
It always felt like soloing for exp on a necro is faster than on an enc. Also safer - and this adds to the exp gain speed. One unlucky encounter with RNG on enchanter and you need to sit there for 10 minutes regening HP. On a necro you just FD or harmshield / kite if applicable, can tap a low level mob or eye for HP, etc.
Fizzles and resists are more of a factor for enchanter than for necro.
- Necro has unlimited mana starting quite early in levels with Lich spells, and it can be triggered at will. Enc starts having unlimited mana at 51 with ToT (previous spell is quite weak), and you need to tap a caster mob for it (not always available, or dies before ToT refreshes, or you are full mana at the time you can tap, etc, etc).
- Necro nukes (taps) are almost unresistable. Enc nukes have a stun component and (partial) resist quite a bit even after tash, on relevant level mobs.
- Dots don't break (charms does all the time)
- Dots don't rape the necro (broken charms rape the enc)
So yeah. I love both classes but enjoy exp soloing so much more on a necro.
