Home Assistant - evaluation

Recently I started to experience problems with HomeSeer.
My Homeseer HomeTroller (basically a Raspberry Pi) started to experience constant crashes.

In the end is the mono environment very critical, a plugin with problems, a service below not working properly, and mono crashes.

So I started to search for alternatives to HomeSeer, because spending more money on a platform that anyway is faulted, doesn't make any sense.

HA - HomeSeer - Introduction

After long time I decided to start to work again on some Home Automation projects.
Mainly because a specific need, but I'm starting to see possible side projects along the way.

I already have some "pieces" of HA around, my glorious and ancient X10 system, an integration with Amazon Echo for the archaic X10, but it was time to start to play with ZigBee or Z-Wave.

So I had to choose and pick up an hub for them.
