Especially considering that their product is not at the forefront of smart thermostats. The learning capability is harmful if you have kids or live in colder climates. Nest works poorly with home automation solutions as well. Dropcam was a good product that didn't change since they were bought out. I am looking into other thermostats and I can't wait to switch.
It seems to me that Google caught a ride on the Nest hype train.
- hkmurakami 10y agoOut of academic curiosity, which product(s) is considered to be at the forefront of smart thermostats?
- joezydeco 10y agoNot really an issue of bleeding-edge technology, but probably whomever owns the most relevant patents. Honeywell? Siemens?
- karmicthreat 10y agoProbably depends on what you need the thermostat for. A home has a very different set of requirements than say the Burj Khalifa. And a warehouse or apartment complex might have their own very specialized requirements. That said Honeywell has products that cover most of those bases at least acceptably. If you just want something for your house though EcoBee seems to be the device to get.
