Compared with Nevo WLAN Bridge (One For All URC 8800) wins the Harmony House highly

Logitech Harmony SmartControl Hub + Remote Control Black (Accessories)

Customer Review

Had initially the Nevo WLAN Bridge tried because it is slightly cheaper. Since this is not sufficient functionality offered me, I still ordered the Harmony for comparison.

Concept:
Is the same for both systems. It is driven a device with Wi-Fi on an app, which then transmits infrared signals to the devices to be controlled.

Furnishings: integration into WLAN
In the Nevo obtained a small device that is connected via LAN cable to the computer. There, the wireless settings are adjusted. The app finds the device immediately afterwards. When Logitech it works Although similar in principle, but for inexperienced users, it is not possible to find out. According to installation instructions, the device is plugged in, searched the App and you're done. The course does not work because the Smart Hub can not dial into the WLAN. Fortunately, I had the experience already Nevo, and joined the device (via USB to the PC). In the Nevo is now simply gave in the browser, type the address of Nevo and had a beautiful mask. When Smart Hub nothing happens. You have on the Logitech website to install a suitable browser plugin, set up an account, and can only enter the WLAN information. Dear Logitech Team, an indication to the Quick Setup Guide would have been nice.

Furnishings: Programming the device
When Harmony simply adding the exact device name - done. In the Nevo one enters only the manufacturer, then remote control codes are tried. You will be prompted with the app to call different functions, and specify whether they were carried out. Go quickly and also rather simple.

Function: Device
Both the IR signals are transmitted well to the devices.

Function: control of devices
When Harmony works after setting it all. In the Nevo almost nothing. Have a Samsung TV - which worked quite well. When cable receivers of Sky no longer anything. And the Pioneer AV receiver worked almost nothing. That was not any better after I had read the remote control code, the device name or the name of the remote control. One can also read there is no key in the Nevo unlike the Harmony. Ergo, the Nevo is because of the app (which also does not really work on the Nexus 7 due to excessive dissolution of the tablets) unusable.

Features:
When Harmony Actions are created at the beginning, the work too great. They work so good that I do not use the original remote controls in the living room after a very short time (which was not intended: I really wanted to be able to control only the device from another room out). The Harmony has plus a remote control that communicates only with the Smart Hub. This is not an IR remote control. The app is tidy, but rather jerky and slow. The settings are saved in the account and can be transferred to other devices. In the Nevo all missing. Actions you can invest, but at the Harmony goes incredibly easy. A remote control does not exist and the app is fast, but unfinished.

Conclusion:
I never thought that a universal remote control is actually capable than the original remote controls to offer a higher level of comfort. The Smart Hub is great fun. Thank Logitech.
