We use RTI for 100% of our multi-zone type systems. If you're in the know about RTI, you know it takes forever to program. And while the drivers seem to be getting better and more numerous, just figuring things out and lining things up on the GUI's and then copying it across 15 pages can bleed the hours, er, dollars.

So, we started peeking into C4 and it looks like time + headaches would be reduced (as compared to RTI). A few questions for you C4'ers:

1) Standard time for a 6 video zone + 10 audio system?

2) The 260 remotes seem to use zigbee only. Range? reliability?

3) Is tech support competent and efficient?

4) Assuming up to par network on both sides, is offsite control/notification stable?

5) Are party zones made automatically?

6) With RTI, we have to manually build for different platforms -- ios, android, fire tab, etc. Doesn't C4 just add the system build to any device? and without buying licenses?

7) Is Alexa control baked enough to deploy in clients' homes?

8) Is anyone here versed in both RTI and C4 that could provide insight?

9) Tell me something you don't like about C4; gotcha moments.
