Pros Product is easy to use from both a forward facing user side and a back end side. The branding is cohesive and simple, which has made it easy for even our senior citizens to get a hang of. Cons There have been a few small features that we've requested that I feel just make sense to include. Like being able to easily turn zones on and off without having to completely delete the zone and rebuild it later.
