FIND YOUR WAY HOME
HOW CRESTRON HOME REVOLUTIONISES YOUR BUSINESS MODEL
Crestron’s training portal and How to videos teach you how to do more jobs with less effort.

For decades, Crestron has been leading the smart home market. We started with offering integrators endless opportunities to customise and create the most stunning and breath-taking complete smart home solutions. To this day, you can still deploy the same Crestron systems in the same way you always have, using custom programming where ‘the sky is the limit’. But almost two years ago we introduced something revolutionary: the Crestron Home Platform; which is constantly expanding and evolving. Since the platform allows you to deliver projects at speed, where custom programming and its accompanying effort, time and cost is not required - it offers the opportunity to expand your offering. You deliver to your customer an easy-to-use, intuitive, stunning user experience that operates as they want. Consistently and reliably. And because the platform is constantly evolving, with updates being pushed out continuously, the system you deliver today gets better over time, improving and expanding the experience you deliver, sometimes without even needing to go on site. In essence Crestron Home allows you to do more jobs with less effort. Make more money by spending less time programming our ‘best in class’ hardware, all whilst delivering a customised and stunning user experience and solution to your clients. Gone are the multi-week programming efforts and countless hours of debugging projects. We’re talking a couple of hours to configure everything. And, thanks to our rigorous, ongoing testing, there are no bugs. If that isn’t revolutionary, we don’t know what is. And to top it off, you can use an iPad or a web app for the entire configuration and set-up.
