Simple solutions for home automation are becoming easier and more ubiquitous everyday. Amazon Echo, Nest, and Google Home are just a few of the products changing the "smart home" landscape these days. However, DIY integrations of those types of products into your home's systems can suffer from some drawbacks. What if your WiFi network isn't up to snuff? What if you want to automate or control something that isn't supported by those platforms or is complicated to setup? What do you do if something breaks or isn't working like you expected? That's where Custom Integrators like Technology by Design come in. We look at the whole package of your home and help you automate and control it in a way that's still simple and easy to use but at the same time robust and practical. We're also one call away when you have questions or problems. Smart homes can definitely result in a simpler life, but they generally require technically smart people to set them up and keep them working at peak efficiency.
