Hi

We are a HVAC company out in Brooklyn. we are getting into controls systems we about to buy the carrier's control program but we also wanted to see what do you guys generally use and what do you guys suggest for controls systems. Something that has network access, easy to use and cost efficient. any suggestions are appreciated. THANKS

Why are you looking at Carrier for controls? and what system? CCN, CView or the ALC iView product?

Distech has it all, but you're probably not gonna get it in Brooklyn.

Circon, Distech and Loytec for controllers and Loytec for infrastructure and front end. Almost forgot iLON Smartserver.

Plenty of options, I'm sure there is more.
