I am working through learning curve with HA, and the next stage I think is to ditch smart things integration and move everything to HA.
If I could a few questions please
1 - Is there a simple replacement in HA which is similar to the smart things home monitor? (I don’t really want a separate display for this, eg a wall tablet or alarm panel)
2 - I have Zigbee Z wave and WIFI devices set up with the makers integrations ie Smartthings and Tuya currently, would I lose anything by going entirely HA?
I actually gained features going entirely HA. For example on my T6 PRO Zwave thermostat there where so many feature I couldn’t access from Smarthings, then a few more only available via the Smarthings CLI, with the HA all the features (entities) are there and I have full and complete control of my T6 Pro remotely. Also the same for my Zwave lock, and ZWave energy monitoring wall plug. HA give you full control.
I don’t know of any built-in dashboards, doesn’t mean they don’t exist, but you can always make your own customized Dashboard with the default setting in HA and addons you can find on HACS. Some better than the old Smartthings Home monitoring. I’ve built a do it yourself alarm system with sensors, cameras, and speakers. I have a custom dashboard just for the sensors for the alarm and automation for multiple notifications based on the sensors.
