Chamberlain Group teams with Honeywell

Chamberlain Group in Oak Brook said that its Q garage control has been integrated with Honeywell Total Connect Remote Services, enabling users to access all home automation devices in one central place.

Homeowners can open and close garage doors remotely through the Honeywell Total Connect app, and also get real-time notifications whenever someone comes and goes. The myQ connected technology integration gives full smart garage control from wherever you are.

This integration delivers the flexibility, convenience, and enhanced monitoring and control of Honeywell customers' Liftmaster and Chamberlain myQ-enabled connected garage door openers, the company said. "Integrating with Honeywell's Total Connect is another important step in delivering the depth and breadth of functionality smart-home users seek," said Cory Sorice, vice president and general manager of Emerging Business at Chamberlain Group.

CGI has established strategic relationships with IoT innovators including Google, IFTTT, Apple, Nest, Xfinity Home and now Honeywell to best serve its customers' evolving smart home needs.

"As consumers become more reliant on their mobile devices to control their homes, the integration of Chamberlain and LiftMaster myQ technology in the Total Connect app gives them more flexibility to manage their home from one single app," said Scott Harkins, vice president and general manager, Honeywell Homes. "Consumers can now use the Honeywell Total Connect app to control their connected devices, and really begin to experience the value of the connected home."
