rule generator in standalone mode (without Internet connection)
http://community.zipato.com/responses/zipabox-without-internet-
I like this idea 
No connection
Real-time notifications may not work
Other than business decisions, there is not enough flash/ram/cpu on the box to fit the rule generator engine.

Hello,
It would be nice that ca be possible on Windows, Linux (Ubuntu) and Synology.
Thank you to you

Probably java application could be working solution? I don't really like java but it is universal.
Much better is to provide some python-based interface as it is very portable as well.

Odd decision to decline. It would be nice to know the reason.
This means that when Zipato ends their business (Bankruptcy eg) you won’t be able to program your box anymore.
That is a deal breaker for me.

Maybe zipato has to come with a second box, with more power but more expensive...

Shame. At least, do as Zodianet with Zibase 2S : allow another server, managed by individuals, that can take over if Zipato goes down.

Don't worry, if Zipato goes down, we will publish the source code of the both server and Zipabox app... Anyway, we won't go down, at least until your zipabox pays of for itself, and aferwards you can always buy another one as we are all using the same protocol (isn't it the point with the Z-wave and other standards)

big disappointment!
I just acquire a zipabox and it decreases a little joy to acquire your product.
The dependence of the total company's servers for setting the box is not great. In addition the site seems to be natively HTTP and HTTPS not even if I thought I read some parts there was a https url but with a self-signed certificate.
This is a shame because I really think this box has advantage but one day it may be unsafe or autonomy might harm him.

sorry guys, I can't understand your disappointment ;) Zipato never promised such feature as far as I am aware. In my case I bought this product especially because it keeps me far from code and all that sort of things. It is not yet a consumer product but not so far: much more easy to manage than competitors products from my opinion due to the rules creator.

Hey guys, live the moment :) For such a small price you can take the risk... the box is just amazingly simple and fun to use. Powerful enough, without a single line of code. That's the point. And even if Zipato disappears - I hope they won't because they do a great job - you will just have to change your box. Even in this situation, it will cost less than some other boxes out there. At first, I was reluctant to buy the Zipabox for this very reason, but actually I can tell you I don't regret my choice at all: it took me a few hours to setup my house and since then it just works.

Having a server run the configuration makes a lot of sense to me, it allows for a cheaper/simpler/more robust box and ensures a very reactive development of the configuration tools online.
The less deployment of software (which versions of Windows ? iOS ? Android ? Linux ? OS X ? configuration/installation nightmares, conflicts, versioning...) you have to worry about the more you can focus your resources on a single online application and supporting a greater variety of hardware.
Maybe they could publish the rule description language and a third party could develop a stand alone application but it does not make business sense for Zipato to do it IMHO.

I agree with the last tree points.
I think that wat's worries more the users is to have a brick if zipato closes his business.
My suggestion would be a written engagement of zipato to publish the source code of the server in the case of a activities stop.
This would not break the business model of zipato and in the meantime assure people that they will have a box working in any case.

I'm agree with phitcar, it will be very useful for developer if Zipato publish the rule description language.
With that developer could develop Android,Ios (for example) Rule Generator Application.
