Here are some of the Scout pros and cons. The Scout system works with Alexa, Google Home, Nest, IFTTT, and can be voice controlled, or by using the mobile app. The Scout hub also comes with ZigBee and Z Wave as well. However, Scout isn’t as user friendly as some because you have to use their app for control. The Scout system doesn’t come with a control panel/keypad. You can buy their basic packages, then add on to them as needed. However, if you want to use the automation features, including the app, you will have to pay a monthly subscription fee. If you don’t, you’ll only get the basic package and the web based self monitoring option, which is almost useless without the app. But, the Scout system is suitable for renters and homeowners alike because it’s portable. Nest was originally known for introducing their smart thermostat which was one of the first home automation features available and it’s what led to the rise of home automation making it into what it is today. But, as you know, Nest offers more than just smart thermostats now.
