AN ALL-IN-ONE SMART SYSTEM FOR YOUR HOME 

When you Google “how to build a smart home,” you’ll find many blog posts and articles about video doorbells, Wi-Fi-connected bulbs, and other gadgets. These devices are technically “smart,” but collecting smart devices does not make a smart home. With each DIY device, you’ll have to use its own app or remote for control. 

And is that really convenient if you need to swipe through pages of apps to use your house? We don’t think so. A smart home should have everything consolidated in one place. There are DIY smart hubs that claim to connect your tech under one roof. But unless you’re an IT wiz, these hubs can’t carry out complex automation and will still have compatibility issues.

Luckily, there’s a better way. A smart home provider like Savant integrates with all your home devices, so you’ll control them through a single smart system. Savant can automate your home with sophistication and customization that DIY solutions simply can’t offer.  

But Savant can’t be ordered online and set up in an afternoon. You’ll need to work with a certified Savant dealer to install the system across your house. Here’s what a Savant dealer can do for your Westlake, TX, home. Ready to get started? Contact Texadia Systems here.

How Do Compressed Schedules Affect a Commercial AV Installation?

We live in an increasingly rapid-paced society—even speed limits have increased up to 80 mph in some areas. But speed is not always the smartest option. And when it comes to commercial AV projects, ‘fast’ does not lead to high-quality results.

Often, we need to pump the brakes and evaluate the consequences of moving too quickly. We’ve all heard the ‘Fast, Good, and Affordable’ theory—that you can only have two. Most people believe if a service is affordable and good, it won’t be fast. If it’s affordable and fast, it won’t be good. And if it’s fast and good, the service won’t be affordable. 

So, what’s the best choice for a commercial AV installation? What kind of business should you partner with if you’re looking for a new technology system? As an integrator that services the Prosper, TX, area, we’ll share the best course of action below.
