    What does Echo let me do?

    I have an HS3 system with various technologies and devices. Profile given below. I use screens/computers/phones to control this system. I could use the HS voice client, tried it a long time ago in HS2, but I don't use it anymore. Echo is basically a voice interface, is that correct? Does Echo let me do something that I can't do with HS3?

    What does Echo let me do? - solved

    The answer is quite a lot. It elevates the ease of use of homeseer to a new level. The voice communication really works. I have found that, for certain devices, I use the voice control for and others I prefer to control with HStouch or keypads. The easy access to Internet information is nice and fun and of course shopping on Amazon is a breeze. The two-way integration with my Outlook calendar is great as is the to-do list feature and integration with any.do. The drop-in feature (an intercom system) is also nice...So many new skills still to discover...
