HomeSeer Version: HS3 Pro Edition 4.2.6.0. I've used ISY (for 5 years), Vera (for 5 years), Wink, InControl, and several others briefly OpenHAB, Home Assistant (HAS), and smaller players. The downside is that each family member has to have an IFTTT account and setup their phones and setup the location event and then call an HS action. I have tried Almond, Wink, as well as Home Assistant and OpenHAB open source solutions.
#HOMESEER HSM200 ANDROID#
Spend a couple minutes with Tyler as he creates a custom dashboard with our new HomeSeer Mobile (beta) Android app. It can monitor and control devices over X10, Z-Wave, PLC, IP, and a host of other protocols, and it has a significant support community building plug-ins. Alternative Android Apps for HomeSeer? The Best Final Cut Pro Alternatives for Windows. Other great apps like Girder are Remote Buddy (Paid), Intelliremote (Paid) and Homeseer (Paid). There has been quite a debate on multiple threads, where users are arguing about which one's better than the other. Stay away from cheap alternatives as those mostly do not support the port configuration we need. It's one of the most flexible and extensible systems available for DIY home automation, and it's very inexpensive at just $220. Besides the utterly worthless software that's supplied with it, Active Home, a Win16 application for crying out loud, is it's response to X10 events very slow: It can take up to 2 seconds before the status of a node is being updated after its state has changed. HomeSeer is a home control system that's been around for about a decade. The learning curve is a little steep but IMO, it's well worth it. I have not tried it but it is something I would like to try in the future.
