Six Reasons to Sell the Crestron Home Platform

Award-winning platform unlocks the full potential of the Crestron smart home.

In this article, Crestron explains the key advantages that make Crestron Home the complete package for any size project and which elevate it over the competition.

Low barrier to entry – for dealers AND clients

Dealers can quickly get up to speed with Crestron Home with only minimal training. There’s no custom programming or UI design required, so you can complete more projects in less time (and get paid faster and more consistently). Since it’s so easy, you don’t need to use highly paid staff to do everything; you can focus skilled labor on custom projects. You can also configure, control, and troubleshoot clients’ systems remotely – a tremendous time saver both during and after setup. And clients love knowing any problem can be resolved with just a phone call.

Crestron Home gives clients the most robust smart home system on the market, with the best user experience by far – and at a lower price than custom systems, with no hidden costs. Clients can even make simple system updates themselves, which gives them peace of mind and keeps you free to work on new projects and develop new business. Plus, since there’s no source code, if you have to take over a project for any reason, it’s easy. You don’t have to deal with the typical backlash from angry customers when you tell them they need to start over.

App-based solution

It’s all in the app. Crestron Home delivers a simple, speedy setup experience for dealers and the personalized, intuitive, and dynamic experience clients demand. Dealers can set up any home with a few simple steps, right from an iPad® tablet or web interface on a laptop.

Modern UI

The Crestron Home™ app makes it easy for clients to access and control every aspect of their home (or multiple homes) – from a phone, tablet, remote, or touch screen. The experience is sophisticated, yet simple, responsive, and consistent across each device. Using it feels natural, comfortable, and just as expected.

Best-in-class Crestron hardware

All of the Crestron technology in a Crestron smart home is built to work together to provide a personalized and worry-free system that’s easy to use, modify, upgrade, and maintain. There are absolutely no weak points anywhere. It’s simply the most reliable, robust hardware on the market; it has to be – it’s the same hardware used in hospitals, Emergency Operations Centers, and by the U.S. military.
