3 Reasons to Work with a Home Automation Company for Your Smart Home

Why Working with a Pro is a Smart Move

It’s 2022, and even if you don’t think you have a smart home, you may have smart devices and functionality in your Hamptons home. Some of the newest refrigerators and washing machines are connected devices, alerting you that your wash is done or that they need service. Some of these devices are easy to set up and use, so do you really need a professional home automation company

We think a smart home is more than the sum of some smart parts. We also believe that a truly smart home is a complete experience tailored to your lifestyle. Keep reading below to learn how Home Technology Experts makes it happen.

Comprehensive Control

You may already have pieces of a smart home solution. It may be a Nest thermostat or a smart lock on one of more doors. You may have a video doorbell to screen visitors. You might even be using Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant, or Apple HomeKit to manage some of them. But you may not be able to make them work together for you, like having lights come on when someone is at the door. Worse, these devices often have a specific app that utilizes all their features but only does a few things through consumer automation platforms like Alexa. The result is many apps to manage your devices, often duplicated automation, and sometimes glitchy operation. 

In contrast, professionally installed and configured smart home platforms like Control4 and Savant put all your devices under one control umbrella, giving you consistent, highly customizable interfaces and seamless integration of your smart home. 

A Tailored Solution

You may be starting from scratch with automation in your Hamptons home, or you may be adding features. For example, you have some lighting control and AV, but you might want better integration, newer features, and easier interfaces. A professional home automation company knows how to deal with those challenges. There may be an upgrade to your existing solutions, or there may be a better, more efficient, and even less expensive current solution that meets your needs now and scales into the future. We work with many of the best names in automation, so we understand what’s possible and what makes sense for you. 

Support When You Need It

It’s one thing to automate a set of lights or use a smart thermostat. It can be quite another to coordinate an entire smart home with lighting, climate control, distributed audio and video, and more. Consumer DIY platforms need lots of attention and updating to get them to work, and constant software changes almost always cause some incompatibility where something stops working. Networking issues also plague many smart devices. When you need support, you will need to look at online resources. In contrast, a professional home automation company can offer varying levels of support – from remote diagnostics and updates to onsite service – to ensure your smart home never keeps working as it should.
