I think all security apps have issues from hik connect to control plus

The app isn't designed to be setup by a user, you are talking about the installation experience not the end user experience.

IMO they are all a waste of time, everything of a certain value has to have an app in modern society to justify it as a product...

 

I haven't had any issues setting up Texecom apps but I'll say again... it doesn't matter which, it's the installers services you need the assurance from as they'll choose the kit.

Everyone has a different opinion on what is best manufacturer but if your not switching installer it will not matter, they should know the product they fit inside out.

I have genuine distain for co.

 

The only genuine positive thing they've done in decades is have a welded nut on the metal endstation

It's the best of all other texecom panels

Best ... as in, a product with a rattly buzzy transformer and also heatmarks top left as the plastic ages...

has only 8 zones ... limited options for everything programming (input or output)... LED display... inadequate event log...

 

In it's day it was fine for your basic/terraced house.

Wouldn't think about fitting one, just maintenance if it was still fit for purpose.
