Why Control4?
Let's face it. Today, a vast majority of our electronics are designed to communicate with something or other. Yes, there are many consumer and professional grade systems out there for you to choose. They all have their pro's and con's. Control4, is on of the most comprehensive, stable, elegant and price competitive systems on the market today. Quality and performance is above par to several of the larger system brands and they are priced much better than you may think. There are plenty of other manufacturers that are priced lower, but they cannot offer the level of performance and integration that Control4 provides.
Elegance, Control and Performance
One of the deciding factors in my choice to provide Control4 to my clients, was the quality, appearance and graphical interface of all of the equipment. Control4 listens to their clients and installers and has done an amazing job at creating a user environment that is simple, friendly and easy to use. It is easy to use for kids, grownups and "technologically challenged people" alike.
Hospitality Industry
The biggest case of "the proof is in the pudding", is that many high end hotels throughout the country install and use Control4 in their high end suites. Click here for more info. So if the worlds largest hotel chains invest in Control4 for their guests, rest assured that Control4 will work for you and your project. It is solid, reliable, beautiful and affordable.
Scalability and Performance
The most impressive thing about Control4 is their dominance of both the large and small scale abilities of their equipment. Control4 gives the "smaller guys" a huge run for their money by allowing installers to setup a simple one room solution at a very affordable price point. But unlike their competition, that one room solution can be easily scaled up to a full sized system. Since there is no "economy series" of equipment. What you get for a one room solution will be the same class of equipment we would deploy in a larger project as well. That means you don't have to spend twice. You can start small and scale up as your budget permits.
User Interfaces
A big deal is to have a simple, elegant user interface that is seamless and simple to use. Control4 offers portable touchscreens in different sizes (similar to an iPad with a stand), and you can use your smartphone, tablet, in-wall touchscreens or even the onscreen interface on your connected TV. You can even control and monitor your home remotely. Control4 has done an amazing job to make sure the interface is the same on all your devices. They made it simple and easy to use for you, your guests, and even when you visit someone else who has a Control4 system installed.
Lighting Solutions
One major impact on smart homes today, is the lighting control and automation options Control4 has to offer. Not many manufacturers in the industry provide brilliant lighting solutions with keypads, dimmers and switches that are laser engraved, with the button names and indicators having any choice of color backlighting. Control4 offers standalone switches, dimmers and keypads, and can scale up to panelized lighting systems as well. You can control your whole house at the touch of one beautiful, elegant button. There are many colors to choose from so it will fit every decor you can imagine.
