A friend of mine gave me a Control 4 and WiFi power strip and it was very easy to setup. App always works. Equipment is easy to add. Graphs are poor, but they’re fixing to upgrade that very soon. Their devices will never go obsolete because of their infrastructure, you don't need to sell it to get the new unit. Just tie it in and add on. That is very nice. Email and Text alerts are setup automatically. I have to say it’s a very nice controller with a ton of options.
