"Avoid this business. I hired them for an AV, shades, Vitrea/DMF lighting control project with a project value in excess of $100k. After more than 5 months, none of the items except the soundbar work as intended. The shades work intermittently. The lightning controls and DMF took months to get and installed and still there are missing/unfinished items and an electrical control box that is absolute mess. Jeff, the owner sells you on a vision of â  making technology simple â  , however, nothing is simple. Jeff promises to â  make things rightâ  , but a great cost of inconvenience to me and my family living in a construction project for 5 months. The whole project was supposed to be controlled by a Bang and Olufsen BeoLiving Intelligence control that has yet to be installed and integrated. The project management has been a disaster from day one. I had to have multiple drywall repairs and painters come to repair walls and paint after the work was done at a cost of several thousand dollars to me. Save yourself lots of grief and choose another business. Update 11-21-23 The project still isn't complete. They schedule appointments then never show up. The Vitrea lighting project still isn't finished. This project is now more than a year in the making and still not done. Avoid this place at all costs. Others have had the same experience. Update 3-25-2024 The project still isn't complete. I have made multiple attempts to contact the business and they are unresponsive. It is beyond my comprehension how the business can have 5-star reviews. The reviews can only be fake. I have spoke with multiple customers and they have had the same experience."

There are lots of advantages to home automation and potentially a few drawbacks. Smart home systems improve overall convenience and can help to optimize energy consumption.
Pros:
Monitor energy and water use
Improve home security
Increase resale value and potential
Cons:
Not all brands are compatible
Subscription fees for monitoring services
Wireless systems may be vulnerable to hacking
Home automation can control an array of different aspects of your home, including:
Interior and exterior lighting
Alarm and security systems
Door and window locks
Pool, hot tub, and steam bath temperatures
Home theater systems and speakers
Phone and internet lines
Yard irrigation
Thermostats
Shades, blinds, shutters, and curtains
Turning off or lowering water heaters and HVAC functions
Detecting water and gas leaks
You should install a wireless system for DIY installs. They’re more budget-friendly but have weaker security. Wired systems cost more and often require a professional.
Security is the biggest difference when it comes to wireless and hardwired setups. Wireless systems are prone to interference and hacking. Hardwired systems are less prone to interference and are exceedingly difficult to hack, as there's no wireless signal to intercept.
For most DIY home solutions, you'll need Wi-Fi. Hardwired systems cost more and may require extra cabling but don't need wireless internet, except for offsite cloud storage and remote control. If you've created a local area network, no internet connection is necessary—even a hardwired one—unless you're accessing a remote service. Some controllers, particularly those for wireless systems, do require an internet connection, so check before you purchase.
Synchronizing systems means your devices will activate or deactivate according to certain conditions. For example, you can set your coffee not to brew if your thermostat is set to away. If your alarm clock goes off, the shower can change to your desired temperature. Different brands may have trouble syncing with one another. Fortunately, hubs like the Wink Hub cost about $50 and ensure your systems work harmoniously.
Data security depends on your provider. It's best to ask your service provider or company for details on how they keep it secure. The most secure form of home automation is a closed, wired system air-gapped from the internet. It would require a hacker to come to your home to steal data physically. If you have concerns, it's worth speaking to a data security specialist before installing a smart home system to take all necessary precautions.
