Ease-of-Use
Your smart home system should be user-friendly and intuitive, and offer wireless communication.

Scalability
Your smart home system should be modular, so you can add new transmitters and receivers as your needs evolve.

Flexibility
Your smart home system should offer a variety of notification alerts and signals such as sounds, flashing lights, and vibrations.

Safety
Sleeping with one ear on the pillow significantly reduces your ability to hear. Your smart home system should therefore offer vibration and flashing lights for when sounds are not enough.

Battery Backup
House fires often cause power outages. To ensure your home is protected, your system must feature battery backup.

Coverage
Your smart home system's wireless capability should be powerful enough to cover your entire home including outdoor areas such as balconies and patios.

Design
Your smart home products should feel contemporary and blend into your home. They should give you pride of ownership and inspire you to recommend them to others.
