Finally! The PERFECT Hub With Apple HomeKit

Hubitat with HomeKit is the perfect match for just about any smart home (and that's coming from a SmartThings guy). Hubitat is a smart home hub with incredible home automation features and it connects to hundreds of Zigbee and Z-Wave smart home products. Hubitat recently gained Apple HomeKit integration and it means that Apple has access to one of the best home automation systems available today.

Not only that, but Hubitat and HomeKit pair so well together because each of them do something better that the other doesn't do so well. HomeKit has HKSV (HomeKit Secure Video) while Hubitat has no camera integration to speak of. Hubitat does multi condition automations, while HomeKit is generally one condition or trigger.

The list goes on, but instead of reading, why don't I show you?
