[Thermostat] Tado or Netatmo?

Hardware
1

Hello,

I have a Daikin altherma heat pump and need to connect it to home assistant.
On the Tado component page they said it only reproduce the tado web panel. Does it means it is not very well supported ?
Is Netatmo better ?

thanks

The tado can be used as a standard thermostat entity.
My view config for my tado displays the thermostat card (with manual temparture control and current temperature display), and a button to disable manual override mode that is only displayed in manual mode.

id: heating
title: Heating
cards:
  - type: thermostat
    entity: climate.heating
  - type: conditional
    conditions:
      - entity: sensor.heating_overlay
        state: "True"
    card:
      type: entity-button
      name: Disable manual override
      icon: mdi:close
      tap_action:
        action:  call-service
        service: climate.set_operation_mode
        service_data:
          entity_id: climate.heating
          operation_mode: "Smart schedule"
      entity: climate.heating

The tado platform also reports humdity, link status and an overall home/away status, per device home/away. It seems well supported to me, although I have no experience of other thermostats.

Is it fluent and works without delay ?

I agree with @reef-actor. Tado provides lots of info, heating and TRV’s all report data and can be controlled within homeassistant.

Works pretty immediately.

Control is immediate, the state is polled but seems to be updated every few seconds

ok looks good.

If my heat pump is compatible with Netatmo thermostat, it must be compatible with Tado right ?
