Hi, I’m new to Homey Pro from Home Assistant, and I signed up for notifications of any cloud or platform downtime. I seem to get several emails a day regarding downtime somewhere or maintenance, or something like that. Is this something that’s going to be disruptive? Am I going to barely notice it and I’m just seeing alerts for countries in which I’m not? Or am I going to start to discover the benefits of Home Assistant over Homey Pro? ---

The recent notifications you saw all were about various Homey Cloud datacenters and not significant for other Homey (Pro) models I notice these notifications on this forum, it’s usually very quiet. I deliberately did not sign up for these notifications: if something generic might be off for my Homey model, the forum will show notifications/user posts. > [@Ben\_Flux](#): > > Or am I going to start to discover the benefits of Home Assistant over Homey Pro? Possibly, but you signed up for these notifications yourself. In 5 years time, there’s been one major malfunction with the Athom cloud servers, affecting Homey Pro’s as well. A few times there were shorter (a few hours) issues, like a unreachable app store or such. These didn’t affect the functioning of my flows (=Homey automations). Imho it’s not a good idea to ditch HA completely, both systems have their pros and cons. It’s very well possible to “merge” both into a _ **HAmey** _. ---

Thanks, Pete. At the moment, I’m leaving all Zigbee devices with HA, and Homey is gradually taking on some of my automations as I get familiar with it. I was using Nodered in HA and I like the similar feel with the flows in Homey.
