Tech Head –
I was sceptical. this is one of those times where a product has exceeded my expectations (by a country mile!) my z-wave system is now complete. Homekit works incredibly well. good job guys (and thank you)
E.W –
Cannot fault, works like a dream.
wink! –
such a good product. Can now control house by my iwatch. Took 15mins to set up.
everyone who uses vera or fibaro needs to get one. 10/10
MB64 –
This device brings so much versatility to my smart home. It quickly and simply linked the devices that the standard HC2 couldn’t control (Bose Soundlink in particular) and linked all devices to Homekit which can then be easily shared with the family. Tech support response for a few minor tweaks was very quick and helpful. Highly recommend.
Commander –
Have been waiting so long for this product (sorry for all the phone calls guys!) I knew it would be good, but I don’t think I knew just how much of a difference it would make – LOVE IT

Linked my Vera Lite to an Apple HomePod – absolutely awesome. Can now control everything hanging off my Vera with the HomePod/Siri including pool filter, tv, lights etc. Fantastic product & very quick shipping.
Urs Wolfensberger –
I have now worked with the Z-Wave Automation Bridge for several months, and it has been nothing short of a very positive experience. It was the solution that I have waiting for. Setting up with VeraEdge was easy. Right at the start, some of my Z-wave devices did not work quite as expected, but that was quickly resolved thanks to the very responsive tech support provided, working tirelessly to make this the ultimate solution. All Z-wave devices now work really well with HomeKit. Is it worth the money? YES! Would I recommend this device to friends and family? YES!
Daniel –
I wasn’t sure how this bridge was going to go but thought I would give it a shot. It was a ridiculously easy setup and worked first time. There is almost no lag. I have it working with both Google home and Apple home kit simultaneously, the Apple home kit is now able to automate tasks including geofencing using Apple TV as the hub. No question that this bridge is worth the money.
Steven –
I want to congratulate the developer of this product for producing such a polished, easy to use and reliable solution. I have both Google Home and Apple HomeKit running with my Fibaro Home Center Lite using AutomationBridge – Could not be happier. I highly recommend this product (and then some!). Well done and thank you.
Michael McGrath –
I use Automation Bridge to add voice control to my Fibaro HC2 home automation system . I have Fibaro HC2 , Automation Bridge and I use iPhones and Apple Watch . Here are a couple of examples of what I can do. I use voice into my Apple Watch to open and close doors, turn on lights, activate scenes. No need to get a phone out of my pocket or even to say “Hey Siri”. I program all the phones in the household to `’turn on alarm’ when all phones are out of the house….and ‘turn alarm off’ when any one person returns. When my car drives up the street I can open the garage door, unlock gates and, if needed, turn on lights….simply by speaking a simple phrase into my wrist watch.
And I will add that on occasions when needed, technical support provided is EXCEPTIONAL .

A hassle free solution – Easy to use and reliable

My automation bridge failed after a firmware update at one point, needed remote access to restore. Then we had a power failure and it completely died, not accessible at all through the web page. I have a Vera Plus which now has support for Google Home. I find that I can live without my automation bridge now.
Michael McGrath –
For some time I have been using Automation Bridge to add voice control to my FIbaro HC2 home automation system. I can use voice to Apple Watch to turn on / off lights, lock / unlock doors including the garage, and run a variety of different scenes, such as Holiday Mode. I find this process most satisfying. This week I added Somfy Blind Plug-In so now I can open, close and move to My position all of my blinds ..all from a call into the Watch. I have also included the movement of blinds into my FIbaro HC2 gateway to embellish a number of my Scenes. This is truely a delightful product to use …. every day. Even my wife uses it on her Apple Watch, so it must be easy to use. Highly recommended.
Bernard –
This device is incredible – it should be a no-brainer for anyone looking to add (reliable) voice control to their vera controller. I have mine running with google home and apple homekit – i have not had to restart it even once, it just works (unlike my vera, but that’s another story!). Easy to setup and use. I highly recommend this solid product.
Gonzo –
i wish all my smart devices worked as well as this. Top notch and well done.
Giuseppe De Simone –
For under $200 and a couple of $15 plug-ins, you can’t go wrong with this device. The support is excellent and a little bug was fixed in two days.
If only the Fibaro Home Center 2 was as flexible and their support as good. But that’s another story.
I use it for voice commands on both Amazon Echo and Google Home devices and it is really easy to use. It also provides a very useful listing of the device ID’s and names from the HC2 so I can use the list for writing LUA or doing simple scenes without remembering the 150+ names of devices in my home (many of which are used infrequently – the old 80:20 rule).
Indeed, when I want to run a scene or toggle a bunch of devices for on/off and dimming, I prefer the automationbridge web interface to the apps from Fibaro or the Fibaro web interface.
I hope Skaro continues to innovate because this is an awesome product already. A special thank you to Tony!
