Hi everyone!
I wanted to share my experience integrating multiple smart home brands on Hubitat. I recently switched from SmartThings to Hubitat and it’s been a fantastic journey so far. I’ve managed to consolidate devices from several brands including Govee, Fibaro, and some custom Z-Wave devices, all working seamlessly together.
One of the challenges I faced was setting up a Movie Night automation, similar to what I had on SmartThings. Initially, I struggled with turning off some lights while turning others on, but with some research and testing, I figured it out using Hubitat’s powerful rule engine. It’s such a relief to have everything in one place now! ![]()

I also wanted to mention my recent DIY project using Z-Wave to control my garage doors. I replaced my unreliable MyQ setup with a simple, cost-effective solution using ZooZ plugs and some micro solenoids. It’s been rock solid for months now and I couldn’t be happier with how it turned out! ![]()

If anyone has tips or tricks for integrating different brands or setting up complex automations, I’d love to hear them! Let’s keep sharing and learning together! ![]()
