Actually its more of a plan for the worst, hope for the best. I sell my clients on the fact Crestron is a blank tablet that I can make customized to their wants and needs. I plan on and bill for writing everything out from scratch. If I can find things to speed the process up thats a bonus, if not Im not out anything. I only count on Crestron for Hardware, thats what their warranties cover. I take care of the software. It my responsibility to make sure it all works, and they can use it.
But thats just me, maybe Im wrong and I should adopt your philosphy.
I understand your philosphy and I hold the same opinion to a point. Customer satisfaction is the goal, however, we are in a very competitive market and in order to get the jobs, sometimes, a Systembuilder programming job is the most cost effective way to get the project.
We all know that Systembuilder has its limitations; we all know that Systembuilder is a failure in some respects; but some projects can be done faster in SB, if it works. In this case, the weather module is a failure and for me to spend the time fixing Crestron's problems costs me money. I refuse to do that.
