Is Crestron better than Control4?

Crestron is the stronger choice for large estates, complex multi-system integrations, and any project where custom programming is required. Control4 performs well on homes under 4,000 square feet with a defined scope and preference for lower upfront cost. Crestron carries no mandatory cloud subscription; Control4 requires a $249-per-year 4Sight subscription for remote access.

What this means for your project

We have retrofitted Control4 to Crestron on three Westchester estates in the last two years. In each case, the client had hit the Control4 ceiling on multi-room logic and integration depth. The retrofit cost more than starting with Crestron would have. If the project scope is large, Crestron is the correct starting point.
