Solid alternative for anyone that likes the concept of smart lighting, but doesn't want to get hooked into an ecosystem like Hue, or simply isn't interested in all the fancy colors and such that those offer.
Definitely takes a lot more effort to convert a whole home than just swapping in smart bulbs, especially if your home happens to have a lot of switches (my folks' place had over 40!); but switches also generally have a much longer life span than bulbs, and being able to keep using regular bulbs makes the concept much more palatable to the tech-shy. This way, my folks don't have to know anything about how it works behind the scenes, and can simply tell Google what to do (I also loaded the place up with Google/Nest speakers). So far, they really like it.
