Been researching security systems, from the traditional sort, to HS3 as my controller, to the new-age systems. I like the simplicity of Nest Secure, and also like my Nest doorbell. However I don't like that I would have to get new deadbolts to replace my Kwikset locks if I want to integrate with Nest, and there's no API (currently) for Nest Secure to allow HS3 to integrate with it.
Abode hasn't published their API, but someone reverse engineered it a couple of years ago and it appears that project has been maintained and is still going strong:

Additionally Abode appears to be more flexible than Nest and generally as feature filled. Cameras aren't as good, but it appears to integrate Nest cameras well (I haven't yet figured out to what degree).
Considering giving this a try. Any thoughts?
