As our dealers know, the Crestron Home® OS is always being refined and updated — including a recent overhaul that yielded version 4, boasting a new look and feel for the world's most powerful smart home platform. While these updates include features that provide both a better end-user experience and easier deployment for our dealers, there’s another aspect of the platform that sees its own refinements: the myCrestron portal.

The myCrestron portal — our cloud-based platform that handles the management, deployment, and configuration of your Crestron Home OS projects — was most recently updated in March of 2024. Version 1.029 continues to push the boundaries of the portal, and the results are downright revolutionary.

“This update introduces a range of new features that empower dealers to maximize efficiency and deliver exceptional Crestron Home solutions,” says Michael Short, senior director of residential and hospitality marketing for Crestron. “I think this update is going to have a profound impact on our dealers when they realize just how much it can improve their productivity.”

A big part of that productivity? Fewer truck rolls.

The myCrestron portal is a centralized platform for dealers to manage their Crestron Home OS projects remotely. By leveraging this cloud configurator, dealers can eliminate the need for on-site visits and efficiently handle various aspects of project management. From configuration to troubleshooting, the myCrestron portal offers a comprehensive toolkit that enhances efficiency and simplifies the entire process.
