I still have my old C3 and could fall back to that (at least for Zwave) or even back to SmartThings if necessary. I just need this stuff to work reliably. Case in point, just a few minutes ago - I have a Minimote in my office to control things. I clicked a button on it to turn off a light and........nothing. Earlier tonight, I toggled the Inovelli switch in my wife’s office, which controls 2 other lights from Simple Lighting and.....nothing. I have an Aeon nano switch in the gang box for my porch light. I have it also triggering an automation to turn on patio lights. A decent percentage of the time, the patio lights don’t come on. Other times, there’s a large delay. When it works, it’s absolutely awesome but the wife is not happy with some of these issues and as much as it pains me to say, I had more reliability for these things with SmartThings back in the day.
I bought the C7 a few months ago for the express purpose of consolidating the devices on my C3 and SmartThings onto one hub and taking advantage of the upcoming hub backup service. The migration went pretty well. It all went downhill fast once a ghost node appeared and I had to rip it out because it was wrecking my Zwave network. No ghost node now, but the thing just isn’t stable.
