Pro

• Supports 8 domotica protocols
  
• Expand functionality through apps
  
• Intuitive flow editor

Cons

• Not yet entirely stable

Conclusion

Yes, it's a beta. Athom reported this to the end users in advance and with every update their pointed at the fact that Homey is still in development phase.

Is his role as central controller Homey is superb: my equipment is mostly moved over to Homey en it all works!

Even more important: extra and enhanced functionallity is added on a weekly basis.

The open structure of Homey appears to be a smart move.

Homey has a active group of developers and users en new apps appear frequently in the app-store.

Should a firmware release criple an app, nearly the same day/week an up date of the app appears and it all works again!

Thank you! That sounds very good and it reflects my point of view.

Thanks for the positive response on my article and thanks to @RobinVanKekem for the translation!

Mind you, I wrote the article more than 8 weeks ago and had to anticipate on the later firmware that would solve issues. Fortunately I anticipated correctly. Still, a lot of improvements have to be made and personally I find the z-wave development a bit slow atm. I hope that - as the vacation period is ending for many of us - development will speed up again.  

I rated the support from this community as being excellent and extremely useful too!
