Fibaro Home Center 3 Lite
I have a number of ZWave switches which I use to control security lights.Using the Fibaro HC3L It's easy to set up simple scenes to turn the switches on and off at different times of day - so many minutes after sunset, or at specific times. And by using profiles - Home, Away, Vacation etc. - it's easy to activate or deactivate a group of scenes. One problem with the HC3L out of the box is that its location is set to Poland and Polish time, and this confuses the timing of the scenes. To be able to change this you need to install the latest update, then you can save other locations.

Fibaro Home Center 3 Lite
I bought this, like many others, to upgrade the firmware on Fibaro products. I did this by including it as a secondary controller so that I didn't have to exclude, include, exclude and re-include and re-configure devices. It worked ok after a few attempts on my FGS-223s but I couldn't get it to work on my FGMS-001 which has a 2 stage firmware update process (it turns out that it sent the 'half-done' notification straight to the primary controller so that the HC3L never saw it, so I had to go through the exclude, include, exclude and re-include and re-configure process anyway).

Fibaro Home Center 3 Lite
I bought this simply to be able to update the firmware of my Fibaro motion sensors - of which I have 9 connected to my SmartThings hub. After doing this I decided to have a "play" with the HC3. Result - I'm now moving everything over to the HC3. It is so much more powerful and, once past the initial learning curve, found the interface much easier to use than ST. The only negative is that HC3lite has limited capacity which I may reach and need to buy another hub (as a slave).

Fibaro Home Center 3 Lite
Like its stronger sibling, the HC3, the HC3L has much potential as an overall controller, but, because of the frustrating lack of information as to how to configure various devices (particularly those not from the Fibaro stable) it takes hours rather than minutes to set up an operating system. Support from Fibaro is laboured: their technicians have designed the hub and many of the devices used: why can they not issue comprehensive instructions which give guidance to how a device might be applied. If such information were available, the HC3 family would be perfect

1) Aeotec Z-Stick Gen5 incompatibility with Z-Wave 700 series devices (Neo Coolcam door sensors). 2) Hubitat C7 inaccurate recognition of Z-Wave devices. 3) Need to integrate two Z-wave networks and Shelly devices in one Home Assistant instance; though I used Z-Wave range extender to overcome HC3L short range specs. I highly recommend it.

Fibaro Home Center 3 Lite
Bought this to replace an aging Vera Lite. What a difference. Easy to use and fast to respond. It can also be seen by my Home Assistant server which has far quicker reaction with switching lights on and off. Only reached half of the capacity of the scene limitations. Great bit of kit for the price.

Fibaro Home Center 3 Lite
This is a big upgrade from my ageing Vera Plus. The only annoyance is that scenes cannot be triggered by Fibaro Dimmer 2's. Fibaro state they can be, but their support was of no help. On the plus side everything is more responsive than when it was connected to the Vera.

Fibaro Home Center 3 Lite
I only bought this controller because Vesternet were offering it at a very good price and using a Fibaro controller is still the only way to perform firmware updates on their Z-Wave modules. It was probably a mistake ! It is not particularly easy to set up (poor instructions both in the manual and on the set up screen) and it is quite convoluted to remove the Fibaro module from my HomeSeer install, then to include it in the Fibaro controller, check for a firmware update, do an update (if one exists), remove the module from the Fibaro controller and re-include it in my HomeSeer network. The Fibaro controller is fairly flaky (makes me glad I am not using a Fibaro Z-Wave network) and although the modules are several years old (and have various bugs in them which I was hoping a firmware update was available to fix) no firmware update was available. I cannot find anywhere on the Fibaro forum what exactly is the latest version of the firmware or details of any bug fixes. Bearing in mind that I only bought this to keep my Fibaro modules up to date definitely not worth the investment for me.

I'm not using this as my main controller, but for testing devices and updating firmware etc.
For me it would be a bit too limited in functionality, but if all you need is a Z-wave controller that just works then it is nice and intuitive and seems to be stable.

Fibaro Home Center 3 Lite
Bought in a sale, in order to upgrade the firmware in all the Fibaro modules attached to my Vera. Its a bit of a pain having to go through the rigmarole of doing this, but this bit of kit makes it comparatively straight forward (but not quick if you have lots of inaccessible modules)

Used as a slave gateway in a separate building. Does what is needed - and that is to extend the z wave network to another building.
