whats the highest on your priority list?

Under Consideration

What would like Zipato to concentrate on implementing? What are the most important features you would like to see integrated first and fastest. We have all been waiting for some time on certain features, so how about we create a little list to help Zipato prioritize what the end user wants most.


For me think these features are some of the most important, not for me, but the overall appeal and functionality of the system. Not in order.

1 Backup feature - that can be downloaded to a new controller if yours needs to be replaced. Actually this is the top priority I think.

2 Sip - mainly for the Zipatile, but very important for intercom usage, both external brands, and internally amongst the zipatiles themselves.

3 Cluster - again for more for having multiple Zipatiles in a home. But also for multiple zipaboxes is also important in large homes on relieving the stress put on 1 under powered zipabox with many devices.

4 the new app for IOS. Its great to have the new app for android, but why so long until the IOS is released.

5 Voice control - whether you release a skill for Amazon echo, or are planning something with the new Google Home, let us know.

6 A plugin store - Maybe this way individuals could provide a plugins and earn an some money from creating features that either Zipato will not, or take far to long to implement. It also give Zipato the option to purchase the plugin themselves and spend less time developing.

7 remove the maximum device list, sip and basic rule functions on non premium accounts - while I am happy for certain features to be a paid service, I think these should be standard. You can not have a device limit of ( i think it is 20) devices when your competing brands vera and fibaro do not. As well as basic operator puzzle rules like + and -. A the sip is needed for basic intercom functionality. Why does someone have to pay 100 usd for this to simply add an intercom into their system.

8. add paypal - this is the most widely used payment system in the world. Please add it to the payment options. I, as do so many others, do not wish another payment system. And people do not wish to give Credit cards details out online anymore.

9. a reset action block in the puzzle maker. I find so many issues can be resolved by a simple reboot every now and then. And a timestamp block. One that includes everything seconds to the year.

10. Roadmap page - with named supported products list that you have, and will be implementing.


Thats it for the top 10 at the moment. I would really like to see the backup feature though.

I agree with #1 - backup greatly exceeds the others; however, I believe the second priority should be more autonomous functionality. Being dependent on the cloud service is problematic and a security concern.

But you don't need cloud service to operate. It will function locally. What features do you want to run locally?

I cannot make rule changes when my Internet is down and local usage of the API has been problematic at best.

Some of this stuff is either in development or planned, but I can only comment on iOS app. It was only started about 3 months ago from scratch and is progressing nicely, but we are taking the time to do it properly. I just posted a new status update in the related thread.

I know Filip, and you are doing a fantastic job. I just wish it was finished. I know you have had to do a lot of other "fixes" on the current app, but how long until it is released.


Alot of things are planned or in development, they just take a long time to be released. A long time. I just thought if customers could vote for what they think is the most important, maybe it could allow Zipato to see what is important and focus on these first. Just a thought.

We have a pretty good idea of what customers want already, but yeah, development does take a long time in general. And there is a lot we want to do :)

I vote for


1. Backup

2. Cluster ( I know it's coming soon)

3. Roadmap of developments and products in pipeline

4. Paypal

5. MODBUS support ( I know it's in pipeline)


Good idea !

Thanks
