If there’s one benefit of working with a home automation company, it’s getting customized solutions. While a smart home offers incredible conveniences, a customized smart home directs those conveniences to activities and events that define your lifestyle and daily undertakings. The result is a home that prepares itself for you in advance and creates a tremendous difference in your day-to-day life. 

Let’s explore the difference a personalized smart home provides and how it's transforming homes in Boca Raton, FL, and the surrounding areas.

Do you remember when the rapid advancements in technology promised an easier life? We would have more time on our hands, and technology would do many of the mundane tasks that people perform. Remember? Instead, we have about five different remotes for our many electronics, plus a few relics in our drawers. 

Today, people use about nine mobile apps every day, and our personal time is getting eaten away by the many social media platforms. If you’ve delved into smart home technology, you may have a separate app for your many devices—one for your lights, another for security, some for appliances, and others for your TVs and music devices. Somewhere along our technology timeline, the promise of ease transformed into more complicated and time-consuming affairs. 

Fortunately, there is a better way to spend your time, and technology can help. It’s called a smart home automation system. Let’s explore how these systems revolutionize homes in Vero Beach, FL, and the surrounding areas.

‘Home control’ and ‘home automation’—what’s the difference? The two terms are often used interchangeably but have very different meanings. 

While you might be tempted to use DIY smart devices in your West Palm Beach, FL home, you can achieve much more with a home automation system. In many cases, homeowners think smart control will cover their needs when in actuality, they really want the benefits of home automation.

Read on to learn what home control and automation mean and how you can experience the best of both with a professional installation. 

We’re a home automation company. Yet when we hear people complain that smart homes are “overrated” or “don’t work” (like this article in Gizmodo), we take no offense. Why not? 

Because we know that these smart homes were not professionally installed with the best control systems. They're DIY smart homes, relying on Wi-Fi and Bluetooth and “20 different apps” to control it all. If you only use off-the-shelf smart gadgets from Amazon or Best Buy, it’s no surprise that you’ll run into trouble!  

For a real smart home experience, you need to partner with a home automation company (like our team in Palm Beach, FL) that can seamlessly wire and program your entire house’s technology. Here’s why a professional smart system makes all the difference.
