Recommended z-wave controller?

Hi,

What´s the recommended z-wave controller for Indigo 7 ? (I haven't been running Indigo for a couple of years)

I got the Z-stick Gen5 and the Zwave.me UZB1. My current setup on OpenHab2 is running with the UZB1, so if the UZB1 is stable I guess that saves me some work.

I've got one of those Gen 5's and it has been without problem for me for 18 months now.

I am using a Z-stick Gen5 on my production system (macOS Sierra 10.12.6) and a Zwave.me UZB1 on my development system (macOS El Capitan 10.11.6) - both systems are running Indigo 7.1.1 - no problems with either system. :)

Most folks are using the Z-Stick, but now that Indigo supports NWI for doing remote inclusion I think the UZB1 should work fine. I know there are at least a handful of people using the UZB1.

Thanx guys!
I've activated the v7 trial now and are playing around with the UZB1. Works like a charm!

Now I remember how great it is to work with the Indigo Interface :D So... I'm coming back after some years with Homeseer and OpenHab2 :!:

Just out of curiosity, what was it about OpenHab that you didn't like?
