Add Stringify to the list now. They were a cloud service similar to IFTTT. The apps have been removed from the respective app stores and the service itself will be fully deactivated by the end of June: https://www.howtogeek.com/410576/str...er-five-years/

Leviton is in the process of phasing out their OmniPro line of security/automation panels. The foreign language versions are the first to go out of stock. Some stock remains on the English versions. This product was originally developed by HAI. HAI was acquired by Leviton. The panel has been in production for something like 25 years so thousands are in the field.

- Barring a defect or lighting strike, the panel should give you a lot of years of service based on their track record. I don't think it's tied to a cloud service (that could be shut down) right?

Last I read is that the Omni Email board is tied in to a Leviton cloud connected email service. I never did purchase an email board.
Leviton has sort of updated the Android based OmniTouch 7 panel.
The video interface was updated but still rather legacy with use of only mjeg stuff (stills or motion).
Now is a good time to get hot spares and seen a few vendors selling bulk hot spares and add-ons really cheap these days on Ebay.
There are a few users around still using prior to ethernet serial Omni Panels which talked to Homeseer 1 & 2 a few years back.
FYI still updated and supported Omni applications are:
Rob's Homeseer Omni Plugin keeps ticking.
Ryan's OmniLinkBridge has been expanded from Smartthings support to MQTT support and Home Assistant support.
LQTech VN Omni panel Android NQ Link keeps getting upgraded.
Haiku and Haiku helper has gone away and now we have
Myro: Home Helper (apple based) - updated and on a monthly plan.
OpenHab - Omni Plugin - still updated and supported over at the OpenHab site.

Looks like the end is near from Wink unless they can find another buyer. If they do, that will be the 4th company to own the product since is was introduced.- Quiky

Wink's been (kinda) hanging in there even though they haven't sold hubs for more than a year. Now, they're introducing a subscription plan for $5/mo. If you don't pay up, your hub turns into a pumpkin in 7 days. Not much notice... https://www.engadget.com/wink-monthl...234146666.html

This will generate almost a half million dollars each year assuming that on average an user has 50 devices.
With that amount of money HS can do nice things.
