Discover Why Control4 is Dominating the Smart Home Market

One could say that the Control4 system is taking the world by storm. What happened? 

In 2024, Resideo completed the acquisition of Snap One. For those who don’t follow acquisitions and mergers, what this means in terms of transforming the landscape of smart homes can be a little confusing. Let’s break it down.

Snap One is the parent company of Control4, the global leader in smart home automation. Resideo is the worldwide leader in manufacturing and developing technology-driven products centering around comfort, security, and energy management. Resideo is also the parent company of ADI Global Distribution, the global leader in the distribution of low-voltage products, AV systems, and security products. 

In 2000, Honeywell, a worldwide leader in security, safety, and comfort, acquired ADI before spinning off into Resideo Technologies Inc. in 2018. Confused yet? 

Essentially, this acquisition brought the biggest players in home automation, safety, and security together, creating a smart technology platform with broad manufacturing and distribution capabilities. 

What does that mean to those in the smart home sector? If you’re not on the Control4 train, you’re going to be left at the station. 

Let’s unwrap the full effects of this acquisition and how it affects homeowners in Westport, CT.

Creating an Outdoor Oasis with Outdoor Lighting, Motorized Screens, and AV

Curb appeal means different things to different people. To a real estate agent, it means a quick sell at a good price. To neighbors, it translates to enhancing the look and feel of the neighborhood, adding a touch of beauty and, in many cases, security. 

To a homeowner, curb appeal extends far beyond what’s visible from the street. It incorporates the entire outdoor area, creating spaces that appeal to friends and family, inviting them to sit for a spell and enjoy the best outdoor entertainment while immersed in subtle outdoor lighting that takes your breath away. 

Curb appeal is appealing to all senses. 

It may seem early in the season, but the winter months quickly give way to spring. We turn around, and another year has gone by without upgrading our outdoor areas. Now’s the time to create the outdoor oasis you’ve been dreaming of in Westchester, NY. 

To help you in your quest, we’re addressing a common question from our clients: what outdoor technologies offer both beauty and functionality? It’s a great question, and one we’re excited to share the answer to.

Explore the Latest Innovative Smart Home Features

As Alan Kay said, “The best way to predict the future is to invent it.” And that sums up the Savant system. Savant is the go-to home automation platform for luxury homes in Rye, NY, and worldwide. 

One of the reasons for their popularity is that, from day one, they have been the industry innovators. It started with an award-winning app, the first smart home company to embrace mobile technology. As an early adopter, they realized the benefits homeowners would experience if they could manage their homes on their smartphones from anywhere in the world. 

One of the company’s first headlines was when the late Apple CEO, Steve Jobs, controlled his super luxury yacht from the Savant app. Back then, it was a system designed for the wealthiest of the wealthiest. Today, it’s gone mainstream, appealing to a larger population due to its ease of use, elegant design, and innovative features.

Here, we’ll explore a few of those features and how they’re transforming homes and those who live in them.
